Nonito Donaire has been improving since he defeated Vic Darchinyan in 2007 with an impressive 5-round TKO victory but his latest fight against Omar Andres Narvaez showed a little frustration not because with his performance but it was the style of Narvaez in the fight. His fight against Volodymyr Sydorenko and Fernando Montiel proved enough that he has a good punching power that can knock out guys and the best thing to it is the changing of his stance from orthodox to southpaw.

Wilfredo Vazquez Jr. is one of the best Puerto Rican boxer have. He almost knocked out his opponents and very handful fighter. He was undefeated before but he was defeated by Jorge Arce. He suffered a lot of punishment in round 11 and was stopped in round 12. Despite of it, he returned in the ring on October, 2011 with a great performance defeating Mexican Roberto Carlos Leyva via 3-round knockout victory.

Both fighters will be real tested in this fight. Both of them are good technically and physically.

Donaire can't handle too much pressure especially his opponent always coming forward and ready for a toe-to-toe fight but mostly it can't be happened because he tries to connect a counter punch every time may wanted to and it is very effective. Vazquez has power and ready to exchange punches. He can pressure always his opponents through his fighting style.

This a test for both of them which could brought a good lessons and good tactics in their future fights.
