INTERNATIONAL Boxing Federation and International Boxing Organization flyweight champion Nonito ?The Filipino Flash? Donaire Jr. will arrive today for the Sinulog celebration.
As a devotee of the Santo Ni?o, Donaire will be here in Cebu City to celebrate the feast day.
Donaire is an endorser of Arthro Kontra Arthritis and will be joining the Sinulog Grand Parade aboard Jonathan ?Atan? Guardo?s Arthro float alongside his girlfriend Rachel Marcial and actress Angelica Panganiban.
?Donaire is a loyal devotee of the Santo Ni?o. He is here for a thanksgiving to the Santo Ni?o for all the success He has given him,? Guardo, owner of Arthro Kontra Arthritis, told Sun.Star Cebu.
Meeting
Donaire will leave for Manila after the Sinulog celebration to attend a meeting with his promoter Gary Shaw and Noli Eala on Monday to talk about his scheduled second title defense against Australian Hussein ?Hussy? Hussein in Dubai.
Donaire will be back training in Cebu at the famed ALA Gym on February for his next title defense.
?We will definitely be training here in Cebu at ALA Gym for my son?s next title defense. Because unlike in the United States, we have a lot of sparring partners here in Cebu that can hone his skills,? said Nonito Donaire Sr. said.
ALA gym helped Donaire prepare for his first title defense against Mexican Luis Maldonado. He scored an eighth round TKO victory. (EKA)
