Nietes ready for higher division
After conquering both the World Boxing Organization minimumweight and the junior flyweight divisions and staying undefeated for seven years, Negrense champion Donnie “Ahas” Nietes said he is ready to move up to a higher weight division and improve his craft.
But the final decision, he said, will be made by his manager, the ALA Promotions represented by its CEO and president, Michael Aldeguer.
Nietes said ALA Promotions knows what is best for his career and he entrusts to the management all the decision-making.
