Nonito Donaire (33-2 KO’s 21) also known as the “Filipino Flash” was once regarded as the 3rd best pound for pound fighter in the world. After his lost to Guillermo Rigondeaux, his high level of ranking amongst the boxing community began to diminish. Now he faces a fighter whose career is rapidly rising in Nicholas Walters (24-0 KO’s 20). A loss for either fighter would be detrimental to their careers. If Donaire suffers another loss, there will be criticism of him being over the hill. If Walters loses critics would announce him as being overrated. These two combatants square off on October 18, 2014 at the Stub Hub Center in Carson, California.
