iVDO: Why this boxing champ is called ‘The Filipino Flash’

AFTER watching this video taken by INQUIRER.net multimedia reporter Erika Tapalla, you’ll know why International Boxing Federation and International Boxing Organization world flyweight champion Nonito Donaire Jr. has earned the nickname “The Filipino Flash.” Here he’s shown sparring with his father Nonito Donaire Sr., who is also his coach and trainer.

This video was taken during Donaire’s press conference at the IMAX parking lot for his upcoming bout against Mexico’s Luis “Titi” Maldonado on Dec. 2, which will be simulcast over Solar Sports and GMA Network.

Now I just have one question: If you’re a Filipino, how the heck are you supposed to say the nickname of Donaire’s Mexican opponent with a straight face, hehe :)
