          You don't EVER count out fighters like Montiel.

              That was a shot version of too sharp that had nothing left after Rafa destroyed him 2x.

              And he STILL beat Montiel.

              Montiel is overrated.

                Wouldn't go as far as shot but badly faded he was and fairly old for a super flyweight. But just look at the HH fight, noone can tell that the man is not dangerous. He may be overrated a little, hes a big name in the division, guys like Agbeko and Moreno are so underrated.

He is not a bad counter-puncher himself and he'll probably be presented with opportunities to counter the counter, as it were, and as we know he's got some power and knows how to put a fullstop on a fight when he smells blood.
                  hes got sum power? No he is one of the hardest punchers in the lower weights. When montiel lands donaire will feel it. Yea sure donaire is fast and could box great but montiel aint no slouch. He could box too and has decent speed and timing.

                    Your talking like Montiel has more power than Nonito, I don't think so. Both are relatively equal in terms of power, however Nonito moves better and is the more dynamic fighter.

                      Have you seen Montiel earlier fights?

                      I'm not sure if Donaire moves better, Montiel had a reputation of being a boxer. Lately he has been know more for being a puncher with all the KO's he is getting but earlier in his career he moved a lot and well.

                      And, Montiel is pretty dynamic himself also.

                      The only reason why I give Donaire the edge is speed and size. But, if gets into a war it would be interesting cuz Donaire chin will be checked if that is the case.
