Comments Thread For: “Fighting Words” – The Bar is Too High for Nonito, Sergio

[mistermartin]

while donaire hasn't looked particularly impressive in his last 3 fights he has won 2 of them convincingly and unified 2 belts in the 3rd fight. I'm willing to give him more time since this is just his 2nd fight at bantam and he's fighting the title holder. If he fights nishioka or rigo next and wins (for the record I don't see him beating rigo) then I think his status gets restored. A victory over arce or mares would also be impressive though it probably won't be as significant unless he kos them in impressive fashion.

as for Martinez I don't think he's done poorly. He was dancing circles around dzinzuruk and had him completely lost. Barker meanwhile was not exactly trying to fight much. From what I remember, after landing that one uppercut he didn't do much after that as evidenced by the fact that Sergio's nose never bled again after. While barker may not have been narvaez, he wasn't exactly boxing much yet Martinez still knocked him out...something donaire was not able to do with his opponents as noted in this article. Against Macklin, he didn't look impressive for 7 rounds but once he figured Macklin out he essentially knocked him out within 3 rounds. Considering Macklin took little to no damage through 7, the fact the Martinez knocked him out at the end of the 11th round I pretty impressive as it only took him 3 rounds to do all that damage. From what they were saying the game plan was always to take a bit of time to figure Macklin out before ending it. Whether you believe that or not is at your discretion, all I know is that Martinez destroyed him when he decided to turn it on.

Completely agree...

Great read. As for khan-Garcia and garcia's dumb a$$ father...I've always held that religious people are the most dangerous people on the planet. With that being said, I hope khan really puts the hurt on Garcia. He's a ****y little **** who barely beat an aged legend in morales. I would love nothing more than garcia's father being forced to choose whether to throw in the towel or not because his seed is taking the beating of his life. Amir, please do us a favor an make both of them pay.

A little side note to the obviously ignorant Mr. Garcia. Christians and ******s actually believe in the same God.

Actually hardcore christians believe the Quaran is written with hate & the god they worship is the devil. Just thought I'd throw your way. I don't have red k for nothing.

Are you sure?? I've never heard such a thing. The Quaran is based on the old testament God, who was a much more viscous lord.

Well, if some Christians believe that ******s worship the devil, then they are worshiping the same devil. Allah is simply an Arabic word for God and it happens to be the same God that the Christians as well as the ***s believe in. ******s even believe in Jesus and Christ is mentioned in the Quran on numerous occasions. But they believe he was a messenger of God and not the son of God.
