Arum Targets Donaire-Rigondeaux Clash For The Beginning of 2013

And, really, 42% want to see Donaire fight an over-the-hill Arce? Sounds like a fanboy poll to me.

Look at the top votes. All Mexicans plus it's a bias poll. They put 3 Mexicans 1 Cuban and "Other." Mijares over Rigondeaux? That's a joke. That means it's all Mexicans who watch that JMM show on ESPN and voted.

Whether you like it or not, Mexicans are a much more important and bigger demographic than the hardcore fan that visit the ring website. That the poll is biased towards Mexicans is exactly why it's more relevant than the ring poll. What hardcore fans want isn't what brings the money and the viewers. What the Mexicans want on the other hand, is exactly what brings the money and the viewers.

That makes sense...
That's like making a poll saying Who would you want Donaire to face next:
Lara, Rigo, Gamboa, Nishioka, Other

Or

Put up 3 Puerto Rican names up there, some random and then an "Other."

Who you think it's gonna win?

BTW The Ring poll had 8k+ votes compared to the 5k in the 'Mexican' poll. Whose word would you take then?

I guess we should just let Mexicans get all the big fights because they have the largest following then. Maybe everyone else should just give up the sport so Mexicans can fight Mexicans and maximize the take.

Boxingscene is for serious and hardcore fans. We're here to discuss, in this case, what might be Donaire's best choice of opponent. We all know that casual fans might choose someone entirely different, but why should we care what some fanboys think? For this reason, the Ring poll is more relevant.

Jeffrey Mathebula - Bum
WV2 - Been boxing for 8 years, still wet behind the ear, KOed by Arce
Narvaez - A midget 115 lber who was brought up to 118 to fight Donaire
Arce - Another bum, short as **** who drives on pure heart and hasn't beat anyone of note and pls don't say WV2. And way past his "prime" who was possibly on his way to getting KOed by Rojas.

This type of opposition with more than 25 fights and ranked P4P is inexcusable.

Either damage control or trying to convince Rigo to resign with Top Rank. I'll believe it when I see it.

darchinyan= best 112 fighter and was p4p fighter when nonito fought him
montiel = best 118 fighter when nonito and p4p fighter
marqez= title holder arguably the best fw currently
sirodenko, narvaez (2 division champion), all good fighters
vasquez jr = close war againts jorg arce whos more accomplished than rigo and beat sonsona who beat carita who was a long time sflyw
nonito's resume sh1t's on sergio martinez

all rigo opponets = bums, with 1 fighter as average...dont ever compare riog's accomp with nonito's , it's an insult to nonito

You can put all those boxers on a throne and still Rigondeaux will whoop their arse and Donaire too, quality my fanboy is what Rigondeaux have and Nonito and cia knows that, Arum knows that he will need to have a surgeon with a new liver on ice at ringside and that cost more than what Nonito's brings to the table.
