    I've seen nothing from Rigondeaux thus far that indicates that he'd be capable of doing anything to Donaire aside from losing handily and possibly getting KTFO'd in the process.

      Being hurt is one thing. The thing is, you are only gonna catch Rigo with 1 shot. You are not gonna hit him with a second, so the 1st better put him away.

        I'll withhold judgement, need to see more of Rigo. Hopefully he gets matched up with a power puncher similar in stature, I wanna see how he reacts.

            Donaire is also a counter-puncher by nature, he doesn't like leading either. He might be forced to lead if they fight and since he isn't exactly a hard guy to hit, he could get caught with some shit.

              after witnessing rigo get wobbled by two barely clean left hooks from a young/green prospect ..i think donaire has more than what it takes to ko rigo with his devastating signature left hook.

                I got Donaire in this. All around better fighter, better finisher. When he's got his guy hurt, he goes in for the kill. More boxers need to do this, but don't. Mares also does this very well, and is another great example.

                  See this Rigo bandwagon...remember I'm staying on it while you all jump ship. Marroquin and Donaire are quite different stylistically. If Donaire can effectively use his length he would give Rigo some problems however.
