Donaire Targets Inoue After Dispatching Gaballo With a Wicked Shot to the Liver!


PhilBoxing.com




What a Shot to the Liver!!! Round 4!! Spectacular Nonito Donaire detonated a monstrous left hook to Reymart Gaballo's liver, stopping him out for the count, for the popular “Filipino Flash” to retain his WBC Bantamweight World Title Saturday Night, Dec 11, in Carson, Calif; the Bohol-native now wanting a hot rematch against sensational Japanese superstar "The Monster" Naoya Inoue.

From the getgo of actions, the far superior Nonito looked fantastic stalking and confusing the much-younger and game Gaballo, displaying the trademark fast ‘n slick moves that have made him one of the most popular and charismatic Filipino boxers.

Gaballo, 25, of Gensan, looked clueless in trying to decipher Nonito’s incoming attacks, defence and smart fighting style.

Right after the explosion to his liver, Gaballo dropped down on his knee.

Then, while listening the referee’s count, he bravely tried to suck up the paralysing pain..... and even feeling hurt, he tried to get back on his feet.. just to fall back down again.



Nonito hugged Gaballo on the floor... and what a gentleman Donaire is, what a touching, inspiring display of compassion and brotherhood... a priceless, blessed moment.

After his terrific win, Nonito took happy pics on top of the ring with his dad and coach Nonito Donaire Sr, his wife, children, brother as well as with his promoter Richard Schaefer, head of Probellum Boxing.. the moment of victory making Filipino boxing fans so proud.

Nevertheless, a warrior his whole life, Nonito Donaire feels that he wants much more. More challenging battles.

Now his goal at 39 is to fight his way to become the undisputed bantamweight champion of the world... and Nippon star Naoya Inoue who he wants next.

Nonito and this undefeated knockout artist Naoya Inoue already fought to thrilling bloody war two years ago in Japan, a hot rumble that claimed the “Fight of the Year Award” for 2019. And the Filipino Flash wants to do it again... even more exciting!

Will Nonito get his super hot rematch.??

Donaire vs Inoue Chapter 2 would be a guaranteed instant success, a blockbuster and one of the highlight fights for 2022. Will it happen? Let’s hope so!

Congratulations Nonito..!!!
