    Agbecko has one of the best chins in boxing. It's even better than guys like Clottey and Mosley, which is saying a lot.
    I've seen some of his fights too... He wins em fights using headbutts. He is a rough fighter and will not be easy to beat. Donaire will have to be careful with that head if they ever meet in the ring. Perez was able to put him down said the referre

        agbeko is tough, but I don't think anyone punches as hard or accurately at 118 as nonito does right now.

          Just cause you have a proven chin doesn't mean you cant be dropped. Really who expected Paul william to get knocked the **** out in the 2nd round. Or who expected margarito to get knocked the **** out by shot shane. As long donaire has one punch knock out power with that speed then you cant ever rule out a knock out at all no matter how good their chin is. It would be a real low chance of happening but it can. I see too many iron chin boxer chin get broken.

          yes agbeko got a great chin and is awkward pressure fighter. But donaire has proven countless of time that he can fight in the inside, and also has great speed and footwork something majority of agbeko opponent doesnt have. And people forget that donaire uppercut is almost as deadly as his hook.

            Great point there. Who in here thought montiel can get knocked out with one punch. Most fans seems to think that fight was going to the scorecards. Darchinyan was indestructible at the time donaire fought him. Who woulda thought darchinyan had glassy chin? Roy jones did same thing thing, he took some punches from a heavyweight but did not go down or even hurt.

              Agbeko can't bully Donaire TS too many options for Donaire to avoid brawlers.

              1. counter punch before he gets in
              2. once in the inside welcome him with a barrage of punches make him pay.
              3. in trouble? run!
              4. can't run? clinch!

              Donaire has the smarts and ability to use the options above.

                I'm a fan of both but I did pick Donaire to KO Montiel. I posted it in a thread. And I only see Donaire outboxing Agbeko, no KOing him. But I'd favor Donaire by a tough UD.

                  I like Agbeko he is tough as nail with tons of stamina that allows him to throw tons of meaningful shots for all twelve rounds.

                  That said he is pretty sloppy and sloppiness against a guy like Donaire is generally a good way to get beat up.

                    well, I thought montiel would lose and the KO was a distinct possibility, but didn't think it was gonna come in the 2nd round.

                      actually, I thought montiel had some success when he got on the inside. he landed an uppercut and a good body shot, but he paid for it with some big punches himself and of course the KTFO punch.

                      it really depends on if agbeko can take donaire's punch.
