I'm replying to a post that donaire is milking the lower weights because he has size and reach advantage at lower weights and implying that he is winning because of these advantages alone and he would look ordinary if he faces someone his size.
I know almost all boxers cut weight. But i assume that Donaire walks around heavier than these guys because he is taller. So, he has to cut weight more. If not, then why would we blame him if he weighs around the same or lighter than them even though he is taller. Is that his fault?
Boxing has weight divisions to even the playing field. Don't blame Donaire if he can make the BW limit even though he is taller than all BW.
So the fact that Montiel out weighed Donaire on fight night says that he don't have all the advantage.
Donaire is taller and have longer reach. But Montiel was heavier.
What I'm saying is, Donaire fighting at BW have advantages and disadvantages.
