Should Donaire sever his ties with Victor Conte?

Did you see Donaire's face after his first fight at 122? That was against Vasquez coming of a T.K.O. loss to little Arce, Donaire wouldn't even make it through the 126 lb. division. Orlando Salido,Chris John,JuanMa,and Jhonny Gonzalez would all beat Donaire.

I know wtf is with that. Booking the same dates benifits nobody. There already is a lack of action, double booking is just facked up.

I'm getting a little tired of promoters naming rising star fighters against tba's all the time. I'm more interested in who they're fighting. That's where the real interest lies. Donaire-Rigo, Rios-top ten 140lber is all I wanna hear.

The best fights for Donaire are unlikely possible, Mares w/ GBP, Nishioka fights usually in Japan. I just hope it'll be against someone inside top-7 122-lber.

Alpha & Omega

Donaire is great talent but I think that last fight with WV2 told us that he probably should not move up much further in weight. I think his power will diminish and that fight was tougher for him then I thought it would be. Donaire will beat Mijares though I think guaranteed. Rigo is the one opponent Donaire needs to steer clear of though, I think he would probably beat Nonito. A lot of people don't like Rios but I do, I think he is hilarious. He will fight anyone and yes the last fight he got a gift decision, I admit that. He just needs to stop trying to make that weight and move up to the next division.
