Daaamn!

You know the politics behind the mares fight, can't fault donaire for the golden boy/top rank feud, plus imo mares is an easy style matchup for donaire but that's beside the point.

Anyways, you factor in that donaire fought these four guys in one year and it's a great year. In fact he should be fighter of the year if not for Marquez. So really there isn't a single fighter in the sport who's had a better year. That says something.

i agree completely

Nishioka: 36 years old, came off of 12 rounds with past it/shot Rafael Marquez.

Mathebula: Ranked #7 by The Ring. Despite this, I actually consider him Donaire's best win this year. The rest suck.

Vazquez: Just got stopped by Arce[don't even mention the cheap little tune-up against the journeyman].

Arce: Looked highly vulnerable against that kid Rojas. Retirement was inevitable.

And yet he's the fighter of the year? So either you're unfairly criticizing Donaire or everyone else in boxing sucks. And its cute ur rocking a Canelo avatar and have the nerve to criticize Donaire when Canelos best win of his career is Ryan Rhodes!

That left hook was ****in beautiful. hit Arce right on the tip of his chin.

That's true..you both been supporting what's wrong in boxing nowdays..that the best is never able to fight the guy right bellow him in the rank..

How am I supporting what's wrong in boxing? The two fights I want for Donaire are Rigondeaux and Mares. The latter I don't think can realistically happen though cuz of the ****** TR/GB feud, but I believe the Rigo fight will happen next year (which is why Rigo was supposed to be on the undercard last night, I believe TR was trying to build it up a bit by showcasing Rigo).

[TRTboy]

Donaire is definitely the most unfairly hated on fighter on this site. The man walks into a new division and in one year wins two belts and beats the #1 ranked fighter, and gets heavily criticized. Unbelievable.

These same people want to say the FOTY is Robert Guerrero or Danny Garcia.

It`s funny. Donaire is easily the fighter of the year IMO. how many elite fighters today fight 4 times in a year against good competition? NONE!!!

[CubanGuyNYC]

Yeap he even said it himself no more bs about unknown shyt talk he wants both whoever first. I say Rigo is more of a possibility since Mares is with GBP after hes hand heals, i see a great 2013 if he's not bsing ofc

With all sympathy to Poonsawat, I'm pissed Rigo didn't get to fight him last night. Not only would he have gotten nice exposure, but it would've been great preparation for Donaire. I think Guillermo is terrific, but it's not good to go from what he's accustomed to fighting straight to Nonito. Now I'm hoping Rigo gets at least one quality match-up before taking on Donaire.

[P4P_No1]

Lol Donaire fought 4 times this year against top opposition. Sure Arce was a money fight but Donaire just fought in October.

Not to mention how ****ed up his hand is.

Donaire getting too much hate at times.

Dude's had a great year and is the only fighter (I might be wrong) that is doing the drug testing thing all year round.

Once he gets Rigondeaux & Mares...what else is there for him?

[-Kev-]

30 years old, opposition so bad he's never headlined a HBOPPV.

22 years old, looking to make his HBO PPV main event debut against the #1 P4P fighter.

Go on, say how it's unfair and he's just protected and blah blah blah. He'll be fighting a better fighter than Donaire has ever fought and will ever fight. FACT.

Oh so that's what this is about, popularity and PPV's?? smdh, you're pathetic Kev. Really terrible post.

The truth is you're just a huge floyd fan and you know Canelo will be fighting him next so you gotta pretend like Canelo is some great proven fighter and rock his avatar, etc. You're very transparent.

Canelo hasn't proven anything. Donaire has.
