By Chris Williams: First it was Manny Pacquiao wanting to turn back the clock and now it’s IBF/WBO super bantamweight champion Nonito Donaire (29-1, 18 KO’s) in wanting to back to the early stages of his boxing form for his fight this Saturday night against former WBC super bantamweight champion Toshiaki Nishioka (39-4-3, 24 KO’s) at the Home Depot Center, in Carson, California, USA.
Donaire said to Yahoo Sports News “Watching Andre [Ward], that made me realize that’s how I fight and that I needed to go back to the roots of who I am and how I fight.”
