The manager of former five division world champion Nonito ?The Filipino Flash? Donaire informed us this morning (Manila Time) that there?s nothing definite on who Donaire's opponent for his April 23 WBO super bantamweight title defense is going to be.
Cameron Dunkin said ?it looks like? Evgeny Gradovich, the former featherweight champion wants to test the waters at 122 pound before agreeing to fight Donaire and that he is ?trying? to finalize a deal with Zsolt Bedak of Hungary, who represented Hungary in the Athens Olympic Games of 2004 and scored a big win over the fancied Abner Mares of Mexico who at one time reigned as WBC featherweight champion.
Meantime, Donaire and his family spent the New Year vacation in Tagaytay City and indicated he plans to begin training for his April 23 title defense in February.
Nonito?s trainer/father ?Dodong? Donaire told us he is waiting for word from his son as to when he wants him in Manila to begin his training camp.
