Comments Thread For: Gary Russell: Ponce Beats Mares, Donaire Edges Rigo

[parrish duke]

I am pretty close to a member of Donaire's camp and they did not want to fight rigo just yet, because he has an under developed right, he is just a left handed fighter, Donaire wants challenges, I think he sparks Rigo. You cannot set up a fighter with just one hand - yes he is ultra defensive but, flash is fast as hell, and he is a dog!! don't see this one going that long

lol You mean like Narvaez? Like Mathebula? lol

I have to respect Gary's opinion. He definitely seems to know what he's talking about. But if you read his comments carefully, he's merely leaning towards Donaire (as I am). He doesn't seem entirely sold. In the end, Nonito and Rigo are very closely matched. It's a coin flip. No one can safely predict the outcome of that.

Do you hold Broner to the same standard?

It's going to be a great fight and both fighters are champions. Nonito is P4P #1 on my list and Rigo I have now as #5. These two guys are the top 2 guys in their weight class and will put on a great show for us fans. I believe Nonito will beat Rigo come April 13 with either a left hook or straight right and Rigo wont get up.
