I think he just fought a stupid fight, it was a winnable one for him but for some reason he went back to what got him knocked out which caused him to lose the fight, at least he realizes it.
King Kong vs Donaire is the fight to be made. It seems like Montiel doesn't want to face Donaire. Arce and Mirajes are done, so I don't see why Donaire should face them. They would probably still be great fights.
But Donaire is big enough and has the skill and underated power to give Ageboka some serious problems. I personally think Donaire is to big for everyone in his class. So moving up 6 pounds won't affect him at all.
I just think if you can take Vic's power and not being scared of him, he will struggle. Look at the fight with Donaire to. I don't even think Ageboka was that much bigger than Vic from the looks of it. Don't know how much either fighter gained.
If Vic fought Montiel and can't hurt him. I see another schooling.
But I respect and like Vic. The man takes risk and isn't scared to fight anyone.
