[tenPt]

Donaire is definitely fighting the best. Hopefully the rest of the top fighters will someday try this.

[V.WEBB]

Looking forward to this card.

This has the potential to be a great fight night!

Ok Uncle Bob, I'll take back 1/4 of the s**** I've said about you; but your still the reason why we're not seeing Pac/Floyd fight. Good job of landing
Nishioka!!! Now that's a fight I would pay money for; but would rather see it for free on BAD!!! Hehehehe....

No reason to take back anything bad you've said. It's not the first great fight Arum has made, and it won't be the last. Doesn't change all the fights he hasn't let happened either. Just the way it works man, we have to take what we can get.

Donaire is going to destroy Nishioka.

the key word is destroy
and no, he is not.


nishioka could very well beat donaire with steady boxing. he's world class.

Donaire is going to destroy Nishioka.

I think so.

Im calling a spade a spade. This is a cherry pick.

Nishioka hasn't fought in how long now?

And wasn't Nishioka talking about retiring Win, Lose or Draw after his next fight? Do we really think that a guy who has already seriously pondered retirement is the best choice of opponent? I don't. But hey, that's why they fight the fights. Im just hoping Nishioka goes out there to perform and not collect a check.

So Donaire is cherry picking the #1 fighter in his division?

Nishioka via UD, Rios by KO.

what??? Have you seen Nishioka fight? And since when does a Japanese guy come collect a check? They are proud people who fight for their country.

Nishioka is a class fighter, the best at 122. He is not going to be defensive like Mathebula or jab jab jab jab like Vasquez.

This dude will rip up Nonito with body shots and look to land that laser left right down the pipe.

He is the FASTEST opponent Nonito has fought to date.

This fight is going to be a war but I think Nonito's power will be the difference.

Donaire by late stoppage in a classic!

i dont think he can just outbox this guy like the Randall Munroes or past prime Rafa's of the world.

Nishioka is there to be hit and when Donaire lands, his power it will be the difference maker
