[rizkybizness]

They should take him out of the top 10 P4P list after last nites performance.

[Blubba]

Nonito's excuse for using southpaw was because his left side was injured before the fight hence the new stance.

Bull**** maybe?

[johncods]

Donaire has the deadliest left hand today. His left hook counter has serious KO power, His uppercut is ****in nasty also has KO power and when he switches southpaw like last night he has that crisp sharp left down the pipe. Nonito's resume might not be deserving of a top 5 P4P ranking but skillwise very few are better than him.

[Chief2ndzOnly!]

Trying to maximize his power i cannot blame him, if he can switch back and fourth between south paw it will give him an advantage against future big money opponents.

Agreed 100% with you Mark. It gives him another dimention to his overall game if he could actually get it down. I think he was doing alot of leaning forward out of the southpaw stance and making himself a smaller fighter. But I think it was more or less that he was tring to make sure he got his left off just as fast as he does in the orthodox stance. Once he switched back to a conventional stance you saw just how one handed he really is. I mean he was throwing three and four punch combos with the left and nothing with the right.

yea, when it comes t fighting tomato cans, fighters he's bigger than, up n comers, etc. the guy has spent virtually the last 2-3 yrs fighting tune ups. lol...what is he tuning up 4??

[flipbjefrox]

according to steve kim of maxboxing, nonito told him he'll fight south paw cuz of a hip injury. fighting in a south paw stance minimizes the pain

Agreed. The guy he fought last nite was 5'2> Nonito had a 4 inch height advantage and about a 7 1/2 inch reach advantage.
