Bout Summary

Nonito Donaire vs. Rafael Concepcion (poster).jpg

Donaire controlled from the outside with movement, using his jab to set up his right hand, and countered with pot shot left uppercuts when Concepcion came inside. Concepcion came forward with non-stop aggression, landing a hard jab to close the gap, and catching Donaire with right hands when he got close. Both fighters had the other stunned at times in the fight, but the only time any fighter appeared to be in trouble was when Concepcion was bothered by a body shot in round 1.

Notes

  • Concepcion came in 4 pounds overweight, and thus was not eligible to win the interim WBA World super flyweight title. As a penalty, Concepcion also had to give 10% of his $65,000 purse to the Nevada Athletic Commission and 10% to Donaire.
  • Donaire stated in the post fight interview that he hurt his hand in the fight.
  • Concepcion suffered a wide cut over the left eye in round 2.
