    At this time the Mares fight is the one that has to get made but the politics won't allow it ala Floyd/Pac.

    This is the second best fight that can get done at this weight.
    seems like there is more of a buzz for donaire-rigondeaux than donaire-mares

      Donaire is a great fighter just like Trinidad. He will KO the excellent Rigondeaux in my opinion. Donaire KOs very good fighters and makes it look easy. I think he is the best fighter in the world today.

        I thought this was going to be about their power, as we saw with Trinidad, Donaire is a guy falling in love with his power. I think he feels he's going to blitz Rigo and KO him, which will be downfall in this fight.

          Of course that is the fight that is actually is getting made. You got to take what you get and it is not a bad fight at all.

          If it was Mares/Donaire it would have more attention

            Donaire crushes Rigo,an amateur, in Round 9. Rigo takes a beating from straight right hands. He then moves up to 126 and eventaully 135 lbs where he belongs.A Donaire vs Gamboa=better fight.

                  Mares-Donaire would be huge in LA. Could be put in Staples Center.

                  Donaire legacy fight. Extremely high risk and low low low reward. Rigondeaux likes to use his movement and pot shot guys. Donaire not going to allow that and will get in and use his power. Can Riggy take the punishment? We'll see.

                  I like Donaire by UD.
