With guys like Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao nearing the end of their careers, who will step up and become boxing’s next pound for pound star? It’s a question I am sure that many of us have our own opinion on, but what if that question was asked to a certified Boxing legend? That’s exactly what happened recently when the man considered the greatest fighter ever to come out of Mexico, Julio Cesar Chavez was asked to give his thoughts on who Boxing’s next P4P star will be. Although a tough choice for the retired legend, he ultimatley picked Nonito Donaire Jr.
Speaking recently to ESPN Deportes, on many boxing related issues, Chavez Sr. was asked who will be the sport’s next #1 P4P best. Chavez Sr. stated: “It’s hard to pick one, but I definitely think Nonito Donaire has demonstrated that he is one of the best in the world.”
Chavez Sr. went on to add: “I think Donaire will be the one to reign over the sport.”
