Nicholas Walters

By Chris Williams: WBA Super World featherweight champion Nonito Donaire’s father, Donaire Sr, says Nonito has got his old movement and is fighting in the old style that made him successful for many years.

Donaire seems to have lost a lot of his mobility ever since he put on weight after having been voted the 2012 Fighter of the Year. Donaire had to trim down a lot of weight to face WBO super bantamweight champion Guillermo Rigondeaux in a fight that Donaire lost.

The movement was gone from Donaire in that fight. In his two subsequent bouts against Vic Darchinyand and Simpiwe Vetyeka, Donaire’s ability to move has been limited. He looked slow and heavy-legged in both of those fights and nothing like the fighter that was crowned the 2012 Fighter of the Year.
