Donaire reclaimed a belt in the Super series against an undefeated champion in Ryan Burnett who was the Ring ranked #5 at the time, and basically retired him. Then after losing to Inoue in the Super series, he came back and took another belt against an undefeated champion (Oubaali) who had reigned for 2 years and was the Ring ranked #2. Then he defended against an undefeated guy who beat the #4 ranked Emanuel Rodríguez to get the title shot. Basically retired all of them. Donaire has a great resume at 118. And his losses to Inoue will age well.Comment

As I said, Donaire will be remembered as better opponent of Inoue. Any questions now?You couldn't even provide a credible comparison just talked about a fight of the year candidate that wasn't even relevant to what I said.
Didn't Mike Alvarado and Brandon Rios have a fight of the year? Do you consider them ATG's? Did that performance make them a stand out fighter?
Doesn't matter can you name someone that Donaire beat at 118 that was a great? That's like claiming Jamel Herring had a resurgence when he went down after getting beat up at 135 to win a belt and then beat an overweight Frampton at 130.
Nonito didn't look great from 122-126 that's just facts he has the skill to win fights but he wasn't a monster in those divisions and when he fought Inoue he was old already and still gave him a run for his money. I'm not discrediting Nonito either he has a hell of a resume and fought everyone definitely a future HOF and deserves all the credit, but that wasn't a fight I'd gauge Inoue as far as his legacy, if he beats someone like Fulton in impressive fashion then that would be a statement and I still stand by that.

donaire is a dumbazz but he did better against inoue than the slick fighter from philly.... it's like new yorkers that will say "im from Brooklyn" as if that's supposed to make them tougher.Comment
