The bantamweight division is ripe with some potentially entertaining match-ups centering Mexico's Fernando Montiel.  Many fans across the globe would like to see the Los Mochi's native square off against Armenian Vic Darchinyan or Filipino Nonito Donaire.

These fans will have to wait as Montiel is following up his impressive fourth round technical knock-out victory against Hozumi Hasegawa in Japan last month with a fight in Chiapas, Mexico against Rafael Concepcion on July 17.

    rafael concepcion, is he the one who came over weight against donaire but was still defeated by the filipino flash? Why is montiel fighting him? Montiel should fight nonito he should fight the best out there. Morel, darchinyan and montiel are avoiding donaire. They are all coward. Philippines the new home of the brave!

    This is the present problem of boxing. The champ who is supposed to be the best avoiding to fight one of the best. Montiel is the small version of mayweather.

    Donaire has a potential to becoming one of the hall of fame boxers. He is just being wasted by whoever is his promoter.

    @ spragong

    Filipinos can become successful in boxing but only with help from the PEDs. The Filipinos that do not use PEDs are the ones who lose. Like Ciso Morales, Rey Baustita, Ferderico Cathubay, and Bobby Pacquaio. Melligen forgot to use the PEDs against Rosales. Gorres forgot to use the PEDs against Montiel. Penalosa forgot to use the PEDs against Lopez. Viloria forgot to use the PEDs against Tamara and Sosa. Mayol forgot to use the PEDs against Solis and Hernandez. Banal forgot to use the PEDs against Concepcion. Suico forgot to use the PEDs against Diaz. Rubillar, Caceros, Gamboa, Presbitero, and Lumacad forgot to use the PEDs against Arce. Pacquiao forgot to use the PEDs against in first fight against Morales. etc

    Nonito Donaire has fought only weak opposition since his lucky punch win over Vic Darhcinyan. He also fought a straweight(3 weight dvisions below Donaire's). That straweight took the fight on 3 days short notice.

    boxing is a sport of DUCKING! what i mean is not ducking a punch but ducking opponents. lots of boxers are evading someone whom they think are dangerous fighters and you don't know who's real champ, unlike in other sports, the best versus the best.

    Hozumi Hasegawa is much better than Nonito Donaire would ever be. Fernando Montiel beat him in Hasegawa's own country. Fernando Montiel also beat Z Gorres in Gorres's own country. Before that, Fernado Montiel beat Zolten Lunka in Germany. Nonito Donaire does not have the balls to fight a fighter in the fighter's own country.

    as always.... scared to fight nonito.... he always ducked and refused to fight nonito ever since he is a flyweight! instead of fighting nonito, he accepted the johnny gonzales fight.... hozumi is a champion but he nowhere near the technicality of nonito... nonito also challenges hozumi but they rejected the fight due to the reasons that they did not recognize other world titles other than WBC and WBA i think....

    The one who weighted 4 lbs over the superfly limit but still lost to Donaire?
    They're giving him the title shot priority over Donaire?
    WTH is happening to the world today?

    to #1floydfan, here's the truth - mayweather jr has only 50 fans including you. did you watch mosley-mayweather fight? it was evident that most of those who watched were mosley's fans. it just happened that mayweather jr fought famous boxers like dela hoya, marquez, hatton, gatti, judah, mosley, etc.

    it's just sad that good fighters like montiel are docking fighters whom they know would give them a tough night. Montiel, is also a cherry picker, i really think that he will never fight Donaire because he knows that it's going to be really tough for him to fight a fighter with the caliber of Donaire. I just hope that Montiel will have the balls to stand against sombody as good as him and stop choosing lesser opponents.
