Donaire Fights Old foe Darchinyan

His career delayed by a painful defeat, Nonito Donaire returns to action against a classic rival whom he once bumped out cold to skyrocket to fame.

Recently reported that Donaire will face Vic Darchinyan on November 9 in Corpus Christi, Texas.

Donaire is originating off a defeat to Cuban Gullermo Rigondeaux, whose ring craftsmanship might be a puzzle that confounded Donaire during their bout last April.

The fight is going to be at featherweight. The venue is tentatively at American Bank Center.

Darchinyan have already been reluctant at any rematch past the 122-lb division but finally made a decision to the battle to find redemption.

Donaire obtained a fifth-round knockout against heavy favorite Darchinyan in 2007 for that world flyweight belt. The battle demonstrated to become the crossroads for boxers.

Donaire grew to become the prince in the Filipino boxing kingdom ruled by eight-division champion Manny Pacquiao as the Armenian-Australian Darchinyan (39-5-1, 28 KOs) continued a tailspin.

But Darchinyan, now 37, has placed up two impressive victories that has become relevant again. Donaire (31-2- with 20 KOs) hopes another conquer of Darchinyan that will put his career back to normal after a loss to Rigondeaux.
