MANILA, Philippines – Nonito “The Filipino Flash” Donaire is back in Manila after winning the WBA featherweight title against South African Simpiwe Vetyeka at the Cotai Arena in Macau last weekend. Donaire arrived at the NAIA Terminal 2 with his wife, Rachel, and their baby, Jarel. Donaire sustained a nasty cut above his left eye after a headbutt in the first round, but still managed to pull off a unanimous technical decision victory. It required 11 stitches to close the cut. -- Mornings @ ANC, June 2, 2014.
