"Little did we know that the fight card itself would be in harms way. First, Alfonso Gomez the original opponent of Cesar Chavez Jr got hurt and had to cancel. Then Chavez himself got sick and can?t fight. Luckily we had so many other fighters in the card to allow it to go. We have four televised fights and they are very good fights. ?We finally convinced HBO to televise and event involving bantamweights. So on February 19th, the winner between the Donaire?Sydorenko fight will face Fernando Montiel live on HBO." Siderenko: ?I am 100% ready after training hard in Ukraine and here. I thank my promoter and Top Rank for this opportunity and I know that I will give a good show on Saturday night.? Donaire, Jr.: "Sydorenko is a good fighter. I am in the best condition in my life for this fight and he is gonna be in the best condition too so this is going to be a great fight.?
