Robert Garcia: "Nonito Donaire Has More Skills Than Pacquiao Or Martinez" (Audio)

[BoxCleva]

Robert Garcia talks about Brandon Rios and Nonito Donaire.

"Maybe we can't give him the name of pound for pound best fighter in the world.. but when we talk about skills Nonito is as good or even better than Pacquiao and Martinez."

[DoktorSleepless]

In another interview, he said he had Martinez on top of his personal p4p list though.

[Nonito Donaire]

of course he does......

[johncods]

Well that's why he's my #3 P4P ATM Robert. Don't worry when Pac retires nonito will take over. Soon.

Pacquiao
Martinez
Donaire

These 3 are in a different league right now then everybody else.

Robert Garcia also said that Margarito was gonna KO Pacquiao and we all know what happened there.

And good luck displaying those "skills" when he can't fight because he breached his contract and will be forced to sit out until the legal situation is settled.

In another interview, he said he had Martinez on top of his personal p4p list though.

True, he gives due respect to both Martinez and Pacquiao in this interview too.

[ThePunchingBag]

Cory Spinks has more skill than a lot of fighters.

Skills don't always pay the bills.

It's also about heart, and determination.

Nonito's hasn't been tested yet.

Robert Garcia wasn't saying anything so ridiculous, really. Donaire is a very SKILLED fighter. He wasn't talking pound for pound, really. He was talking about solely skill. In that regard, I might be inclined to agree with him. Especially about Pacquiao.

Not to say that Pacquiao isn't skilled, but he's more of a passionaite fighter that has a good base of skills and gets through with incredible spirit and intangibles.

Martinez is a skilled fighter. He might be a bit more skilled or at the very least just as skilled. However, it's not ridiculous to compare the two at this point.

Regardless, all three are obviously great fighters.

Nonito is more skilled than Pacquiao, and is on par with Martinez. He hasn't proven that he is as good a fighter as either one though.

determining who is more skilled is a tricky thing. that's cuz some people see aspects of a particular fighter others don't. whether what they see is imaginary or not would be a point of loooooong discussion.

so, in short, i agree with you that all three are definitely skilled fighters. determining WHO is more skilled i'll leave to others with more energy to tackle such a deep issue.
