I BINGed it. Nonito Donaire is apparently a boxer. what would seem to be excited about an upcoming fight (s)he will be watching on Pay Per View. In Harm's Way is the slogan they are using to advertise it/name of the event. Top Rank is the promotion company putting the fight on. Happy to be of service.
He beat the hell out of Sidorenko. I wish some of these guys would start fighting each other. Donaire, Gamboa, Juanma, Mikey Garcia, Saul Alvarez vs. Yuri Forman, I'd love to see that fight, pirog vs martinez, we need these fights!
Great card, even after Julio Jr was bumped. I know that HBO and SHOWTIME are basically free fights and it is every fighters goal to headline one of these networks, but I prefer the PPV versions, because when these promoters are trying to justify 44.95, they feel pressure to put crowd pleasing fights on. I am never disappointed with Top Rank ppv, Latin Fury or Intergraded Sports cards. I love these cards. They say that Nonito Donaire is the number 2 best Filipino fighter behind Pac-man. I am not so sure he's not number 1. Yes Pac-man has beaten everybody, but Donaire is about to start taking names himself and he has already had 1 signature win against Vic darchinyan.
He'g got a great potential, he's fun to watch as well. He's a more intelligent fighter than Manny but Pacquaiao still the king.
Things I'd like to see: 1. Yuriorkis Gamboa in a big fight. 2. Not to have Yuri Foreman's career to be a footnote to bigger punchers. Foreman is a great fighter, if he just had a little more pop he could be a p4p candidate. I hope he doesn't succumb to Julio Jr, like Top Rank is going to hope this happens. 3. Pirog Vs. any top competition ahead of him. 4. Iron Boy Calderon vs. Giovani Segura II 5. Soto Vs. Marquez on an undercard that includes Gamboa Vs. Juanma. Let's get it on! (BTW, why have they never fought again? Soto vs JMM I mean) 6. Berto Vs. the Pac-man. (even though this is the casual boxing fans only fight they are interested in)
It was a great fight. But I was blinded by all of the soto punching bag, lol! Antillon is a tough son of a cracker though. Soto and Marquez need to battle like yesterday! If you had them on a card with Gamboa and Juanma, this ppv would have two fights of the year candidates.
Also, if Berto and Pac do make the fight, I'm going to predict that Pac will lose this fight, and that's probably why it won't get made.
