NONITO ?The Filipino Flash? Donaire Jr. confirmed on Monday that his shoulder surgery at the Seton Medical Center in Daly City, USA is a success.
?I expect to have at least eight weeks of rehabilitation and then I will begin workouts. Next time, I will go to the ring 100 percent. I need to heal up first,? Donaire told boxing website philboxing.com on Monday.
Donaire and his wife Rachel are expecting their first child on July.
Donaire, who lost his World Boxing Organization super bantamweight title to Cuban Guillermo Rigondeaux last week is expected to climb up to the featherweight class. If that pushed through, Donaire could face Juan Manuel Lopez of Puerto Rico this year. Another possible opponent for Donaire is Victor Terrazas, the newly crowned World Boxing Council super bantamweight champion.
