Comments Thread For: Donaire: If No Challenges at 122, I'll Move Up To 126

does'nt matter whether he performed great or not, he was the number guy in the divsion ..did mosley perform like people wanted him to when floyd fought him ? no , thats coz they were in there againts great fighters, they were outclassed...but that did'nt take away the fact that they were number 1 in the divisions..

Its a performance sport... of course it matters if you perform....

So make up your mind my dude, who was Rigo's biggest win, Cordoba or Ramos? Keep flipping your tune to fit your agenda. Cordoba beat a fresh Caballero, Mathebula lost. Vazquez got KTFO by Arce and beat WHO? Ill just keep the same arguments and watch yall contradict yourselves, again and again.

You're just another blind folded fool going by what you're told if you truly thought Nishioka was the #1 122 lber.

id go with whather you say it is (rico ramos) just so we can eliminate the Bool****.. cordoba was never a champion , mathebula was..so if you can downplay them guys , i can do the same with rigos best wins...but with nishioka , you cant talk **** about that coz even he was the more legit , the more deserving fighter than any 122 lbers to be the #1 guy ..

Ah I see. I was waiting for this one to come up, I hadn't seen it yet.

But when Rigo fights the guys he's fought and outclasses them they're automatically labeled as "bums".

Btw Rigo is more accomplished as a PRO AND AMATEUR than Vazquez. Just saying...

Nishioka was an over the hill way past his prime fighter in it for a paycheck, lets be real.

sure but it does'nt take away your position in the rankings pre fight if you get outclassed later on

Your ranking should be based on performance. Nishioka didn't perform well in his last fight against Marquez, why would he be expected to perform better after over a year layoff?

You know he was in there for a paycheck when his corner was so quick to stop the fight. The dude didn't even look that hurt...

i dont thnk over the hill is the word ..you mean too defensive and conservative with his punches...he was still the number 1 guy

I wasn't gonna bring that up, but I agree with that point. They jumped in there VERY quick, and Nishioka didn't even seem to mind. If he was really in it to win it, he would have been yelling at them.
