Boxing World Reacts To Historic Nonito Donaire Win

This weekend was all about Filipino boxing legend Nonito ‘The Flash’ Donaire.

Surely a future Hall of Fame fighter.

He became the oldest bantamweight champion in history.

Done so via a clock turning back performance and knockout victory.

Showing age is just a number.

His attitude in the ring and outside of the ring a real insight into admirable behavior to any young aspiring boxers out there.

Boxers, and, the boxing world at large, were very impressed with what they saw:

My brother @filipinoflash did it again ! Congrats Champion 💪🏽.

Congrats to the great @filipinoflash, one of the best in #boxing, in and out of the ring, and a future first ballot @BoxingHall of Famer.

Maybe a big rematch with Inoue awaits next up.

Whatever the case there will be more opportunities.

Great win.

A great moment in boxing history this weekend.
