As seen on Chronicle Live last week, San Mateo’s Nonito Donaire faces the fight of his life this Saturday in Las Vegas against WBC/WBO bantamweight champion Fernando Montiel on HBO.
Donaire (25-0, 17 KOs) is currently ranked Ring Magazine’s No. 5 pound-for-pound fighter in the world regardless of weight class. Montiel (44-2-2, 34 KOs) sits only two notches down at No. 7. (By comparison, Pacquiao and Mayweather occupy the top two spots.)
Needless to say, this is a battle of epic proportions that will undoubtedly shake up the boxing world, so I’ve enlisted the help of a few local fighters (and a notable trainer) to get their take on how things will play out at the Mandalay Bay Events Center this weekend.
