LOVE this fight!! who's Nonito fighting??

[E-Thug]

I smell a Corrales-Castillo type of affair.

I hope so. It's about time we see a all-out classic.

[gingerbreadman]

YES, been waiting for this one. Hopefully Donaire gets matched against Nishioka and neither picks up an injury. Nothing to chance.

[Southpawology]

its gonna be a ****ing WAR. I hope it lasts longer than at least 6 rounds though. I cant pick a winner I think this is a 50/50 fight. I cant wait for this fight...Jcc Jr/Martinez, Maidana/Soto-karass, Rios/Alvarado are all very possible FOTY fights.

Cant wait for this one!

Hope Alvarado's lip holds up. This will be a nasty one....just to think about it, Dawson/Hopkins 1 was around this same time last year, and the main event didn't live up to the hype.

Rios and Alvarado BOTH take advantage of their opponents getting tired or running out of **** to do in the middle/last rounds of the fight, so this bout is all about who folds first.

[A.P]

Hell ya can't wait 4 this s!th....

"let the games begin". Alvarado by late stoppage.

NICE.

Come on, please have Donaire fight Nishioka, that would be the card of the year, just for those two fights.
