    Nonito is an advocate for clean fighting. No doping schemes, no ped abusing, not a dirty fighter either, standing for clean talk not trash talk.

    But anyway the thing that impressed me was a video he did with sechback, he told Elie "many people wanted to enhance me, I told them 'prove it' they would reply 'then let me inject you' bro Nonito said, "I don't need peds I'm comfortable with my ABILITIES " this is why Nonito is great. Despite many doing it, he did not. Saying he had no trouble making 118 or 115. It's an interesting view if I can locate that video.

    This man fought a monster Inoue at 36 year old in an all time classic. Every boxing fan should respect him

    Great great fighter!!!

    The guy gave us some great fights. No shame losing to Rigondeaux, Walters at 126, and Inoue twice.

    I met him in Oakland when I saw Andre Ward fight in 2008.

    He also fought here at the Las Vegas Hilton and a friend of mine who worked for the Nevada State Athletic Commission gave me the headband that he wore to the fight.

    I saw him last year at the Virgin Hotel on the Inoue fight.
