CEBU CITY (2nd Update) -- Nonito Donaire, 2012 "Fighter of the Decade," bounced back from an unimpressive performance in the early rounds to score a ninth-round stoppage over former four-time champion Vic Darchinyan in their grudge rematch Saturday night (Sunday morning RP time) at the American Bank Center in Corpus Christi, Texas.
Donaire, who was not doing near well as expected of him in the first seven rounds, stung Darchinyan with a strong straight to the face and followed it with another blow to the head before sending the Armenian-Australian to the canvas with his signature left hook with still 1:45 left in the ninth round.
