THE man Sergio Martinez calls a sure-fire pound-for-pound #1 fighter in the future ? Nonito Donaire took time to answer some questions at his Manhattan media workout on Tuesday. The Filipino-American sensation who defends his Bantamweight title this weekend at Madison Square Garden against Omar Narvaez, talks about why he loves boxing, why he doesn?t like boxing, sparring with Manny Pacquiao and much more?
BoxingInsider: After the disappointment of Hopkins-Dawson last weekend, is it in your mind to give an extra exciting performance to make up to fans that after taste of that lousy contest?
Nonito Donaire: ?I feel blessed with the situation that I have, the life that I have. And I?m always thankful for my fans being there, supporting me and praying for me. There?s no doubt in my mind, I?m ready. And I?m going to try to perform the best possible way. But it takes two to tango. We need participation for Narvaez. I think that he?s willing, he represents Argentina and he?s a legend of Argentina. But he?s fighting somebody in a different world right now. And that?s what we?re gonna try to give him. The best of what he has against the best of what I have.?
