Fans were disappointed when the fight was stopped after only four rounds due to a cut. Bad Left Hook's Scott Christ called, " bizarre, anti-climactic, and maybe even downright shameful turn of events."  Christ went on to say, "The fight was a sloppy mess from the get-go, foreshadowing, perhaps, the ultimate fustercluck that the entire event became."

Here's some highlights from MMA Mania's round by round account:

Round one: Vetyeka doing well early with his jab. Donaire misses with a counter cross. I like to have timestamps here, but they're not showing the time. Donaire lands a left to the body. Now they show the time; 1:50 to go. Good three-piece combo from Donaire, ending with the left downstairs. Technical difficulties means I miss the next minute. Vetyeka actively jabbing the body and head. Body shot by Nonito. They exchange to end the round; Nonito cracks him with a liver shot before falling to his knees after the bell. Replay shows that Vetyeka landed a rabbit punch after the bell. 10-9 Donaire.

Round four: Vetyeka gets Donaire to the ropes and lands a handful of potshots. Nice uppercut from Vetyeka snaps his head back. One minute in. Donaire body shot, Veteka cracks him with a series of nice shots on the ropes. Suddenly, Nonito blasts Vetyeka to the floor with a left hook. Vetyeka back up but Donaire is all over him. Nonito firing artillery but Vetyeka guarding well. Minute to go. Vetyeka just avoids a left hook that sounded like it would have decapitated him. Donaire hurts him with another left hook, Vetyeka avoids further trouble. Another pause to check the cut. Donaire lands a hard straight right before the bell. 40-35 Donaire.
