Comments Thread For: Arum: Filipinos Don't Support 'No Pay-Per-View' Donaire

[SluggerFan]

if the pinoys dont wanna support him..**** ill support him even more..dude is a beast..im a boxing fan and support a fighter regardless of culture or nationality

I totally agree. It doesn't matter to me one bit where someone comes from. When it comes to boxing, it's all about how he fights. If he is exciting and fun to watch, then will watch the guy. If he runs around like a b*tch, pot shots and doesn't take any risks, I won't like or really wanna watch the guy.

My point: Donaire is exciting to watch so I will tune in when he fights...

this is the second time golden boy snatched a pinoy fighter from arum
remmerber they tried to do the same with pacquiao

Not a problem now that we have the great Jason Litzau to follow.

I won't be surprised if he starts selling 100k PPVs before Donaire does. lmao. All you have to look at is the color of his skin.

I wonder if the Filipinos are starting to become like the Mexicans. Mexicans don't seem to support Mexican American fighters and it seems like Filipinos don't have much love for Filipino American fighters either. If this is the case I have to admit I'm a little bit surprised. I understand why Mexicans don't support Mexican Americans but I kind of thought Filipinos had a different culture and would be accepting of Donaire and Viliora for example.

i didnt know that, im not full blood mexican but my dad is and we always order fights of any good fighter it dont matter what he is, my dads fav fighter was odlh, and we also bet by putting all #s on piece of paper for each round and put it in a hat and we pay 20 bucks per paper we get and whoever gets the round that the fight ends they take 240 dollars, but my punkass uncle is always lucky and he wins, well ya i didnt know mexicans didnt support mexican american fighters my dads side of the family like whatever fighter they see so there is some mexicans who support other boxers, and donaire will be another fighter we will be seeing in the future

is he based in the us or phillipines ?

is he the oscar de la hoya of the philipines ?

The Oscar De La Hoya would be Brian Viloria, but some Pinoys here will try to claim him as Thai.

good, because hes an American!



Arum needs to stop being a **** and mind his own business. hes been all over Donaire's ass lately, for no reason.

Yeah, it's funny how he says it's just business and he doesn't take any of it personally, all the while making press report after press report slagging them off and insulting them both as if he was an immature kid doing his very best to get back at them. If that's not taking it personally, I'd hate to see what he does when he does take something personally.

Arum really is a sick man. He revolts me like few can for some reason. He's just so twisted. His life is one big constant stream of lies and bull****.

i feel wat ur saying..im rican but im not gonna be nut hugging a rican fighter just cuz theyre rican..i love watching juan manuel marquez or bam bam rios fight as much as a cotto or juanma fight..its boxing that i love regardless of race if a fighter is exciting and shows heart, thats a type of fighter i want to support..

Bantamweight ruler Nonito Donaire's sudden defection to archrival Golden Boy seemed to be taken in stride by Top Rank boss Bob Arum. I made a column out of it a few days ago when, upon reflecting on Donaire declaring himself a free agent and then inking with Team De La Hoya, Arum reflected back on past fighter defections and near defections.

You're damn right! Filipinos should be proud of him... Nonito is a rising star in boxing and as a fan we should support him...This guy has the talent and will be one of the ATGs. Only *******s hate nonito...*******s never knew anything about boxing until he came.
