Donaire made Vic look easy. If anybody is over rated it is Vic Darchinyan. lb for lb, I don't think so.Comment

Firstly, the Darchinyan fight was a mismatch from the get-go; he fought a tactically brilliant fight and showed superior class over a guy (Darchinyan) that a lot of people rate highly, even after the loss.
Secondly, he is a flyweight who does what a lot of flyweights aren't doing - he's knocking people out. All of his world title fights have ended in KOs. That alone puts him in a position to garner attention because how many fighters on the elite level can routinely score knockouts, especially at the lower weight divisions?
Martinez was looked at as a very serious contender by most interested pundits and Donaire blew him away.
Look at some of the hyped up and comers now, Valero, Angulo, Kirkland etc, they dont have half the skills donaire does and people kiss their asses all day.
I think he's that good, but he needs to move that head more or he'll get hurt by a bigger puncher.Comment

Have you ever seen Nonito fight? He is 21-1 with 14 ko's so as you can see, he has more than one solid win. He is super fast and has excellent pop and balance. He is certainly not a hype job ask Darchinyan who seems to be invincible outside of Donaire. Why do you think Arum is dissing a Darchinyan/Donaire rematch?Comment

He's beatable, what saves him is his sense of timing, that's the thing about him that separates him from the rest.Comment
