    Donaire is too big and tall I think, Narvaez will probably make him look worse than he normally does though, he's a good little fighter.

      No I meant I wouldn't bet on Narvaez, but with those odds I would. Very good deal if you ask me.

But then again I think Montiel is better all around and Donaire had no trouble with him at all. Also Donaire is a BIG 118lber and Narvaez is a career 112lber who just recently went up to 115lbs.
        Suppose Narvaez gets hit with something early. Is there any chance he will respond to that buy running the rest of the fight? He's not impossible to hit clean is he? I'm feeling more confident in the Donaire stoppage, but I think I'll youtube the guy first to be certain.

          I was thinking the same thing before, but then again I think Montiel is better all-around than Narvaez and we all saw how that turned out.

            Donaire via KO. I would love to see that left hook again maybe between rounds 2-4.

              Do you think Narvaez can survive to see the final bell?

                The thing is, sometimes when a guy is clearly headed for an execution. He doesn't fight the same way, and if he refuses to engage, it might be difficult for Donaire to put him away.

                    Oh no he is very possible to get hit early. Against Ceda, Ceda did his best work early after Narvaez' experience took over. Donaire might not even let him apply that experience. He's not Pernell Whitaker by any chance, nor half the defensive wizard he was.

                      Donaire is very calm, against Sidorenko when he had him hurt he didn't jump on him, just patiently set up his shots and took him out. I see something similar playing out Saturday.
