So now Nonito has no power @ 122, LOL!!!!

[frosty-g]

Of course he is. Not just by Donaire fans but by any logical fan. He is a proven 122 pounder. I doubt Photomane(or whatever his name is) would have said him though.

so you're saying there's a difference between being a donaire fan and being a logical fan? hmm, explains a lot! ha ha.

Out of Donaire, Rigo, and Nishioka. Only 1 of those is actually proven at 122. And, that is Teiken promoted fighter. Donaire and Rigo should be working on fighting Nishioka.

Well if Donaire fans are saying the same thing as logical fans. Means actually that Donaire fans are logical, no?

, how so?

on the merits of a victory over this guy

[Phantomas]

Has he proven that in the pro's against true top fighters?

Just watch him. He not only beats nonito, Rigo takes him to school. Besides we have seen nonito fight much much lesser accomplished fighters, why not Rigo. Why the fear?. As long as Donaire avoids Rigo he wont be able to claim himself the best bantam.

Yea I watched Rigondeaux fight against Cordoba. That didn't seem to me like a fighter who can beat Donaire. Did you see the Cordoba fight? When you saw that fight. Did that performance jumped through your TV screen and you said "Donaire stopped ducking this fighter"? Or did it take Rigo KO'ing the great almighty future HOF'er Rico Ramos for you to say that?

What deficiencies did you see on him?

What deficiencies did you see on him?

He is a little too stationary. It's seems like he likes to hold his ground just to counter. Feinting gets him to react and he reacts a lot to feints. Look at the Cordoba fight again. And, Donaire loves to feint.

But, that's just something I see. But, again how proven is he in the top level? Not proven at all. Against elite fighters you might see more of weakness that have not been exposed yet.

Neither Donaire nor Rigo are proven at 122. I think a fight against them would be a hell of a match up but very easily an eye sore. I don't count out Rigo beating Donaire nor do I count out Donaire beating Rigo. It's a very interesting match up.

However, neither guy is the best at 122. The #1 guy in the division man is Nishioka. And, that was my original point. It's not Doniare, it's not Rigo, it's Nishioka.

Rigondeaux running the whole fight against Cordoba... A guy he was supposed to be faster, technically superior, slicker and has more punching power. Aren't you guys saying the same thing would happen to Donaire since Rigo fought a bum who quit in his last fight?

Rigondeaux also has a tendency to relax at the later part of the fight, as evident in the fight with Cordoba. IDK if that was his corner's advise to cruise to victory coz he knows he's ahead on points, but maybe he didn't take chances with Cordoba who gave him all sorts of problems.

RIgo fans are a very promising bunch!
