Nonito Donaire captures WBA Featherweight belt

 

Nonito Donaire captures the WBA featherweight title with a unanimous  technical decision over Simpiwe Vetyeka on Saturday in Macau.

He thanked the fans over at the venue who supported him and said sorry for not giving "a proper fight".

Donaire bucked on a cut on his left eye and fought like a wounded tiger to finish the fight in four rounds winning the cards 49-46.

The champion was not pleased with how the match turned out and is willing to give Vityeka the rematch.

Donaire climbs up to 33-2 with 21 knockouts and has bounced back after his loss with Guillermo Rigondeaux in April 2013.  He was able to knock out Vic Darchinyan in November 2013.
