he was a top p4p fighter because of his resume, and the way it compared to others boxing at the time.
there's a difference between being "hyped" and being limited.
donaire is limited. when he's not flying around the ring knocking guys out he looks ordinary. he can't carry a round with boxing.
he had been tearing through weight classes and f#cking some of their best fighters up. he wasn't hyped in the least. he was limited.
I'd say he was too limited for the amount of hype he received. He was looking great against brawlers but not so great against boxers. Mathebula and Vazquez both gave him problems before he went to the Guillermo Rigondeaux School Of Boxing.
