Comments Thread For: Donaire vs. Rigondeaux Close To Done For April 13

[Twako]

Narvaez made Donaire look very human and exposed some technical flaws in his game. Rigondeaux will bring a similar style, which unlike Narvaez, his natural to him. He is also better defensively, bigger, stronger, and will be able to take advantage of the technical mistakes Donaire makes. Rigondeaux hasn't done enough as a pro for me to pick him over Donaire. But stylistically, I think he's a much tougher nut for Donaire to crack than Mares would be.

narvaez didn't do diddly-squat and lost ALL the rounds. did you even watch the fight?

Will be great to get another top 10 scalp and another belt.....

Wont do much for the CV though

Hopefully (not holding my breath) Mares is next

Bullshit until it's signed.

Yes!!!! This fight needs to happen, to set the record straight.

I'll stand by my original thoughts, if Donaire beats Rigondeaux, it's a very very good win. What will be funny though is this.....the Donaire fans that have called Rigondeaux overrated and nothing special, and said that Rigondeaux hasn't done anything....if Donaire beats Rigondeaux, they'll all of a sudden turn around and say it's an amazing win, even after slamming Rigondeaux for over a year now.

I just hope people keep it 100 whatever happens.

Maybe you should start, Sounds like you're starting to make excuses already

What does, "losing all the rounds" have to do with exposing technical flaws in Donaire's game? His lateral movement basically nulified any and everything Donaire wanted to do offensively. The fight was very similar Pacquaio-Mosley. Narvaez and Mosley didn't wanna fight. But in doing so, exposed techincal flaws in the Filipinos.

You need to learn something about "Technical Flaws" because it is not a technical flaw if the other fighter does not want to engage unless the one who wins, barely wins, rather than dominates like Donaire did. Thats called a bad style matchup and every fighter has faced that. Donaire landed more punches and won by a landslide, despite that the fact ALL Narvaez wanted to do was last, which he admitted. Come up with something not so lame.

And what does this have to do with Filipinos????? Your agenda is obvious otherwise you would have used only the names of the fighters, not their heritage....but obviously their heritage matters to you.

narvaez fought more like clottey...guard up high and scared to throw.

Where are all the fools now saying Donaire was ducking?? Yeah the same fools who don't realize that fighters don't pick their opponents, the Promoters do. What a clueless bunch of ***s willing to bet their house that Donaire was afraid of Rigo. Time to eat crow.

Well, what do you expect? A lot of these haters are ignorant, low-income ********** with no semblance of critical thinking skills or business acumen. These dudes run off emotion like a bunch of b!tches.

As for me, I can't wait to see Donaire's left hook send Rigonho's teeth flying back to Cuba. And now, it looks like it's lot closer to becoming a reality.
