Am I the only one who thinks people are overeacting to this win?

[Allucard]

Have any of you people even heard of Donaire or seen him fight before this?

Did anyone watch Hasegawa outbox Montiel until the KO?

At first I thought the fight would be a war. But the more of Doanire and Montiel past fights I watched I knew it would be a slaughter in Donaires favor.

People are overrating Donaire and Montiel. Dopnaire is a great fighter but slow down people. Montiel was in over his head.

People overreact to every win, as long as the guy's not black lol. True story too!

Donaire is a cheat always came in 15 to 20 pounds heaiver than his opponents when he was a flywieght than he hires Steroid chemist Victor Conte

You do know he only rehydrated 8 pounds for this fight? Montiel out-weighed him in the ring last night by like 10 pounds or more. I surely thought he was going to rehydrate more than 8 pounds kudos to his team(Even though they had to delay the weigh-in so he could make weight).

I didn't see anything special about Montiel, he was slow, short, easy to hit, telegraphed his punches, no power, Donaire couldn't have had an easier opponent.

Maybe its the "slick african american style" that just doesnt excite the fans enough in order to overreact to it. Most fans (especially the casuals) want to see an action packed fight. Not a display of "tag you're it"

Donaire-Agbeko is the fight. And I got King Kong beating Mares. I think Donaire is getting overrated myself even though I still respect the dude. I think Agbeko could probably beat him if he's on his game. People underestimate that dude but my god he has good manuevers in the ring. Slick, hard to hit, good power. Thinking Agbeko could possibly beat Donaire is no slight on Donaire though. Because I think he's capable of moving up and beating the hype job fabulous three in John, Gamboa, and Lopez. Lol.

This is what i hate about this forum,before the fight,everybody was saying its the best fight that can be made in the division,they are the two best at bantam easily,before the fight alot of experts where calling it a 50/50 fight or 60/40 in Donaire's favor,before the fight Montiel hadnt lost for like 5 years,was on a KO streak,had one of the best years out of all fighters in 2010,and his only 2 losses coming by way of SD,Donaire made it look easy and blew him out the water,i think we shud credit donaire on knocking out an elite level fighter,remember,alot of people rank Abner Mares high,but he struggled with Darchinyan,who Donaire also blew out the water

Yeah that makes him the best bantamweight. He would get sparked by Juanma Gamboa or Ponce De Leon though

[AllEyesOpen]

I give Donaire a lot of props, he won big and it was very impressive. I personally don't tend to read too much into such a quick KO because it usually means that the guy who was KO'd wasn't as prepared as he should have been. Definately looking forward to the next Donaire fight though, very well done by his part, especially closing the show after the first KD.

I think its a better win than an win over an overrated PWilliam that I can guarantee.

Im really feeling Moreno vs. Donaire. That would be a sick chess match.

[Guest]

But, that was from people who didn't really know about the weight-class. They were not the 2 best in the weight-class. They were 2 of the best. That weight-class is deep. And, Moreno along with Agbeko could be considered 2 of the best at that weight-class.

Yeah, man all this talk about fighters at 122, when there are a *****load of good fighters for Donaire to fight at 118.

Agbeko and Moreno for starters, who are vets and champs.
