Super flyweight Nonito Donaire (16-1, 9 KO’s) will return to the ring after a seven-month layoff against Florida’s Kevin Hudgins (5-9, 2 KOs) on May 12, 2007 in a ten-round non-title fight in Reno, Nevada. Nonito is returning after suffering a hand injury. “It’s been a while since I’ve fought, but it doesn’t matter who I fight. I’m just happy to be back in the ring,” Donaire commented when contacting Boxingtalk. The fight will take place on the Joey Gilbert Promotions Reno After Dark card headlined by Joey Gilbert defending a regional middleweight title at the Reno Events Center.
