yeah that's true. i hope this loss would put him back to humility zone. this dude's head got so big thinking he can win fights by trying to act all tough and being too arrogant with his speed and power but no technique.
i am not happy with the way rigondaux won by pot shotting but i still wanted him to win just so donaire can try to learn techniques. but he's head might be too up on his azz and just do the same thing over and over again.
anyway, if nothing changes he should just fight face first fighters so he can look fabolous all he wants.
LMAO!
He can bounce back from this loss. Don't disown a fighter when he loses. Hopefully he learns from this and continues to do big things. He could've chose to move up to 126 and avoid Rigo. Instead he chose to give the fans what they wanted.
Nonito will look fantastic against come-forward fighters due to the styles clash. Nonito isn't strong defensively, but it's not like he's completely inept. Nonito has boxing ability, but Rigo was simply too defensively sound. I really can't think of a fighter who I'd pick to make Donaire look that bad. Rigo has numerous qualities that others don't have.
I agree that now the blueprint exists on how to beat Donaire and only the counter-punching boxers can execute that game plan, but not a lot of fighters—even the slick, technically sound guys will be able to do to Donaire what Rigondeaux did last night.
Donaire is good n a very gifted fighter, his still P4P good but this is just a case of styles make fights, Rigondeaux is just too good for him, he was very slick n fast n the small Rigondeax body made this easier
Donaire was not gonna win a boxing match n i said that
he had to dropped his hands like Roy Jones Jr used, n try to land a big punch, pressure with bob n weave, he did that a bit when he caught Rigondeaux
this the same trainer in charge of Ríos and Margarito right?
ah ok, just checking...
to be honest robert garcia is like a poor man's version of freddie roach
him moving up its going to be interesting I thought Mares will win a close fight because Donaire wont have a massive size advantage he will probably still be big for featherwight but wont have a huge size advantage
Donaire is a beast though respect the guys talents but he was somewhat overrated
he is very talented and can really do great. but the thing is he's too arrogant to listen to his trainer or do other moves to bring out the attack.
