Video Donaire vs Nishioka: Keys to the Fight with Al Bernstein
Donaire vs Nishioka: Keys to the Fight with Al Bernstein, Here we go the most anticipates super bantam weight fight of today. What will it take for these two fighters to win. Let us check what Al Bernstein have to say.
Nonito Donaire
"For Donaire, keeping the right hand up is essential, because that is
where he can block the straight left of Nishioka, a straight left to
did in Jhonny Gonzalez in their fight. He's gotta double with the left
hook. Even though that leaves him open in some cases for Nishioka to
land that straight left, because he'll be dipping down to his left, he's
gotta double with it, throwing it to the body and the head. And the
right hand, which Jhonny Gonzalez used to knock down Nishioka, is a
terrific punch for Donaire. He has power in both his left hook and his
right hand, but the right I think may be his big power punch in this
fight.
Toshiaki Nishioka
"For Nishioka, he's got to be busy. You have to make Nonito Donaire
fight at a slightly higher pace than he likes to fight at -- if you just
stay on the outside and let him potshot you, I'm not sure anyone in any
weight class that he'll fight in can beat him that way. Move to his
right -- he's gotta stay away from that straight right hand. It's not
that the Donaire left hook isn't powerful. He used that to knock out Vic
Darchinyan, another southpaw, when he fought him. But I think the right
hand is especially a problem in this fight for Nishioka. And he's gotta
land the straight left hand to the head of Donaire. It's a punch
Donaire has been hit with, and if he can get that in, perhaps his power
can do something to a fighter who is moving up in weight."
