Is no fighter allowed to look even a little vulnerable?

    Did I miss something, People are hating on Donaire? I actually told dummies like Puga that Donaire wasn't gonna steam roll Vaquez because the kid can box. However Donaire went in there & beat a soldid fighter with a ****ed off hand. However Pacman is overrated as ****!!

      I thought Donaire did a good job for moving up in weight. I hope he stays there I think he is fighting guys that are the same size as him at that weight.He did get hit a lot more but so what thats what we want to see a good fight going back and fourth not him just blowing out some opponent. But yeah I agree fighters can't look bad because people on here will just start talking their b.s. about that this fighter just got exposed but thats way styles make fights.

        I think donaire def deserves some criticism for his last to showings. He's very talented bursar he does best, IMO is imitation. He has the natural ability to imitate Roy and serg etc. But he's not very intelligent in the ring at all. He's shown that in 2 fights now. He doesn't know how to open his opponents up. All he had to do was quit it with the headhunting last nite and focus on the body and WV2 would've been out of there. That and his defense was kind of lacking. He's still an amazing talent but he needs to think n stop showboating. Its the truth.

          He's a 20:1 to favourite and he won convincingly...

          Your point is?

            This is my first time being on here since the fight so I haven't seen the reaction.

            But, it's no surprise that idiot fans have criticized Donaire. It's how it goes on here, simple as that.

            As for the fight, I thought Donaire would win easier, but, he was solid, he did what he had to do and got the decisive victory in his first fight at 122 against a good fighter.

            At one point, I thought Vasquez may get the victory, but then the KD changed the momentum. I can't wait for the rest of his 112 run.

              His last 2 opponents are scared to death of opening up after Montiel and seeing Donaire throwing bombs.

              But i agree he needs to stop show boating and just box the guys and let KO's come and not look for them

                Oh man, the "what have you done lately" mentality.

                People are gonna be afraid to open up against Donaire, that's just a fact.

                      Nonito just doesn't press the action.He allows opponents back in the fight by watching them and waiting, waiting for a counter opportunity.He also keeps throwing 1 punch KO shots instead of combos.But the worse par.t I don't like about Nonito is he turned his back on his la familia.It is reported his Grand pa and ma would be happy Nonito get's knock the **** out!!This guy is a douche.
