This according to Donaire's Facebook feed and Bob Arum, so take it for what it is worth. But, if true this adds another set of big names fighting in December. No word on undercards. Sorry if this is a repeat thread.
The fans win with this action fight, unless they are boycotting because they only find relevance in one fight in one of the best divisions out there... Donaire is already the clear cut Fighter of the Year, and Arce will make him 4-0 in his first 4 fights in the division, all in the calendar 2012, all against top 10 opponents including the #1. Can't get much better than this.
Arce is not thaat bad of an opponent.. Nevertheless, I hope this fight doesnt ruin the prospect of an early 2013 fight with Rigo
The good news is that Donaire finally has an opponent who will come to fight him. Bad news is that this will be over in five rounds.
BS fight! Donaire though has 4 fights this year so why not? He should step up next year. Moreno, Rigo ... Line em up forget about Gamboa though lol.
Donaires next fight should be with winner of Mares Moreno or Rigo. Arce should have rematched that kid Jesus Rojas.
I would be surprised if Arce makes it passed the third! He's done as a fighter with cracks in his once granite chin.
Well, Donaire already fought 3 times this year and he just beat the #1 in the division, so he deserves an easy match to close the year At least it'll be entertaining while it lasts, because Arce like the good mexican warrior he is, will come to fight him no matter what, which means more material for Nonito's KO highlight reels :bbb
