Donaire vs Sidorenko - Full fight

slip&counter · Dec 6, 2010

Donaire is very skilled, i've liked him for ages. He just hasn't been promoted right which is a shame. Montiel will cause him a lot of problems though.

I'm a fan of Nonito he has real talent and star potential and it was nice to see him in a real worthwhile fight for the first time in 2 years.

I have been really annoyed by Donaire's management since leaving Flyweight.

After beating Vic he faced the right people considering his switch from Gary Shaw to Top Rank, fighting in a less popular smaller weight division and his lack of experience going into the Vic fight.

Luis Maldonado was an experienced proven top 10 Flyweight who was a good first defence and gage of whether the Vic fight was a one off.

Moruti Mthalane was his mandatory and first fight in 11 months who has since gone onto win a title and gave Donaire a tough fight.

Raul Martinez was a legit contender who was undefeated and it was an opportunity to fight in his native country and build a name in the Phillipines. Also Martinez is now on the verge of a World Title shot.

But after that it has been an absolute joke.

Concepcion was a 15-25 Supr Fly, I know they couldn't go for a title because Vic held 3 of the titles and was involved in a fight with Agbeko and Montiel was just about to vacate to move up but they could have gotten a more proven opponent.

I don't blame them for Manual Vargas even though it was a joke as it was a late replacement but the original opponent Guerson Guerrero was a 25-35 Super Fly, who had already clearly proven to be nothing more than a fringe contender at best. It was a joke fight to begin with.

Tyson Marquez was a Flyweight who in his previous fight had been shutout and dominated by a fringe contender. Why was that fight made.

I get they had problems making the Vic fight and that caused problems but why didn't they push to make a fight with Simphiwe Nongqayi, Hugo Cazares, Omar Andres Narvaez, Jorge Arce etc. They could have taken them on at any time and it would have added something to his resume and a fight with Arce or Cazares especially would have been interesting fights that would have built his name.

Like I said Sidorenko was the first fight since Martinez that was worth taking and I really hope his team get their act together.
