DONAIRE UPDATE!
By Salven L. Lagumbay PhilBoxing.com Wed, 28 Nov 2007
A press conference was held in New York a few hours ago for this Sunday's Showtime Championship Boxing promoted by Gary Shaw Productions, LLC.
The three scheduled 12-round fights will be televised live from Foxwoods Resort Casino, beginning at 9 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the west coast.)
World flyweight champion Nonito Donaire immediately motored to Foxwoods Casino in Connecticut after the press conference, then run on the treadmill at the hotel shortly after arrival.
?I still have a lot to prove," the Arthro Kontra Arthritis-backed Donaire stated in a press release. "People call me a one hit wonder. But I will continue to fight to build my name and prove myself," Donaire told the media at the New York presscon.
?I am going to do what I have to do to take him out, no matter what he comes at me with. This will be a great fight. This fight will validate me as a world champion and show people I am here to stay.
?Maldonado is a good fighter and not one to look past. But I am stronger, faster and smarter. After my win over Darchinyan, I am more confident.
?My arsenal is a lot stronger than Maldonado?s.?
