Why is Donaire so heavily favored by the boxing public?

[sapak]

Because people want to see the second coming of Manny Pacquiao. I honestly believe Donaire is a very talented fighter with a lot of skill and natural abilities but he has not faced a fighter at the caliber of Montiel. He's feasted on bums (besides Vic who was pretty tailor made for him) and has looked great doing it. we'll see if he has the goods.

I got Montiel by KO

How many points can you put on montiel? I'll give you 2:1 odds.

It's not that he's stopping his opponents it's how he stops them. Like I've never seen him stop them the way Montiel stopped Hasegawa. He never put punches together.

Yeah he clubbed him with that left hook. He had great instinct to rush in there and get him before the bell.

It's a 50/50 fight!

And it's going to be the real superfight!

Including me...

Montiel has fought good competition while other than Vic, Nonito has been in against what seems to be a string of tune ups.

Montiel is also much more established at Bantam and Donaire has only been there a few times.

Is it the heigth of Donaire that people see. Is it the dominating performances.

I believe that Nonito is just a more sound boxer with about equal power.

What do you think?

cause most hardcore boxing fans saw montiel get outboxed by hasagawa until hasegawa got caught

And it's going to be the real superfight!

I hope it is. The other one didn't quite live up to the bill.

Montiel couldn't afford to outbox Nonito, he will get tagged & Donaire knows how to utilize his advantages

his chance is to swarm him, be aggressive & turn it into brawl

but then again Donaire is also a good counter puncher & had one of the best counter left in the business

i maybe wrong but i think the only style that could beat Nonito is more defensive style with a consistent jab
