Nonito Donaire is not ready to call time on his career just yet.
The Filipino sensation’s time in boxing looked over when he was destroyed by the brilliant Naoya Inoue in two rounds earlier this year.
Despite the brutal setback, Donaire is still aiming high and is targeting a number of names to bolster his already incredible legacy.
A four-weight world champion with numerous world class operators on his ledger, Donaire’s reputation in the sport he loves is a stellar one.
With multiple world titles, money, and his health all secured, this is likely the perfect time for Donaire to walk off into the sunset, but forever a fighter, the 39-year-old is looking for his next challenge with Roman Gonzalez and Kazuto Ioka his main targets.
“It’s a really good fight with ‘Chocolatito’ and people are saying it would be ‘legend versus legend.’ It’s a big fight,” said Donaire when speaking to Probellum.
“I do like the Ioka fight as well because I want to get that title and become a five-division champion and then move back up to 118 and go for the undisputed crown once everything else is open and I get another opportunity for it.”
