Former junior featherweight titlist Nonito Donaire is recovering from right shoulder surgery that followed his unanimous decision loss to Guillermo Rigondeaux in their 122-pound title unification fight on April 13.

"It's just tender, totally tender," Donaire told ESPN.com on Tuesday. "I'm trying to stretch it and I'm in physical therapy, trying to get it stretched out and get the shoulder back to normal."

Donaire, the consensus 2012 fighter of the year, said he was troubled by the shoulder throughout training camp but went through with the fight anyway. Dr. Shabi Kahn performed the arthroscopic surgery on Friday at Seton Medical Center in Dale City, Calif.

He would not have taken the fight if the was not confident about his shoulder to start with.
