Five division world champion Nonito ?The Filipino Flash? Donaire has ?no problems? going twelve rounds with Jose Gonzalez, a cousin of unbeaten pound for pound king Roman ?Chocolatito? Gonzalez who, he said, has ?a good style similar to unbeaten Jessie Magdaleno? against whom the reigning WBO super bantamweight champion will defend his title at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas on November 6, Manila Time.
Donaire told the Manila Standard he ?had no problem at all and it was the first time I was in terrific control.?
He revealed that Cuban trainer Ismael Salas has shown him ?a better way to fight and when you see me (against Magdaleno) you?ll? be surprised.?
He helps me fight ?in a more precise fashion.?
Salas has trained world champions Guillermo Rigondeaux) who beat Donaire some years ago in New York, Yuriorkis Gamboa, Danny Green and Manny Pacquiao?s opponent in the main event of the same fight card and Jorge Linares.
Jose Gonzalez is an unbeaten super bantamweight with a record of 5-0-1 with 2 knockouts and is 20 years old.
Donaire said he woke up yesterday ?at 128 pounds? which is fine.
The 24 year old southpaw Magdaleno has a record of 23-0 with 17 knockouts.
