So, let’s uh, let’s go and see what richard shaffer has to say about donald’s.
He says the special donnie nietzsche will chase major unification fights after regaining his world title.
Yet his is in tokyo, japan to challenge wbo junior bantamweight, champ kazuto ayoka on wednesday night.
As i said yesterday at the other city gymnasium, the filipino hero 40 years old, defeated ioka in 2018 to win that belt, but would soon vacate the title and nearly four years on he heads into enemy territory, to take it back and pro balance.
President richard shaffer says once nietzsche has reclaimed the wpo crown he will target unification showdowns with the other world champions, including jesse bam, rodriguez and juan francisco estrada said.
Schaefer boxing is like an addiction, it’s very difficult for fighters to let go and when you do become a world champion again at the age 40.
Who is going to stop you who’s, going to tell you, you cannot go and try and pursue a unification fight for a long time.
The lower weight classes were the neglected, but now that has changed, and today they are extremely popular with fight fans and networks.
It’S the right time to be in those weight classes, and would i not be surprised if donnie juan sees world champ again says: hey i made as well.
