peter_cariñoA new Cobra Energy Drink commercial featuring four-time world boxing champion Nonito Donaire is making the rounds of television.

In the commercial, Donaire battles a robot in a steel-chained ring, and even if he gets staggered in the initial phase of the fight, he eventually bounces back and dismantles the robot. Although that is purely fictional (Donaire will be needing more than a sledge hammer to beat a real robot like that), the brand getting Donaire as a product endorser shows that the Filipino boxer’s stock is not on a downtrend despite his April loss to Cuban boxer Guillermo Rigondeaux.
