Comments Thread For: HBO's Lampley Thinks Nonito Donaire Will Top Rigondeaux

[Bermuda]

What was it, twice in 12 rounds? Lol

well he didn't throw it that much if i remember correctly, but the times that he did he didn't seem to have a problem landing it..and he landed 3 clean left hooks. all it'll take is one clean left hook from donaire..remember that.

i hope rigo remembers to duck after throwing that straight left of his...

I respect Lampley's boxing history knowledge and his opinion of who will win this fight but his explanation of why SUCKS!

" greater experience and flexibility"

That means Rigo should have lost every fight he's been in. Rigo boxes and works the body. Does Donaire even have an inside game? What does Lampley mean by flexibility? That he can touch his toes? What flexibility is he talking about?

That's really lame. Someone that's been around boxing as long as he has, even if has never been in the ring, should be able to do better than that.

I think what he meant by experience is not only the number of Pro fights but also the quality or elite fighters he's already faced and succeed. Yes, experience doesn't guarantee a win but it is a factor. With regards to flexibility IMO is about their boxing styles. Nonito is known as a counter puncher just like Rigo. But Nonito has also shown to take the lead when needed too. And in this fight I don't see Rigo changing his style so it will be up to Donaire to take the lead. I think that's what he meant but experience and flexibility.

I was expecting that.."all it takes is one clean punch" reply.
The same one punch he couldn't land on WV2 as he had predicted a knock out with before that fight.

This fight is going to be one-sided
Rigondeaux will destroy Donaire

I will be surprised if anything else happens !
I can't wait for April 13th

I don't ever remember Lampley giving a prediction before he calls a fight?? I wonder if that has anything to do with his favoritism during his commentating??

[mex602]

This^^^^^^^ If you follow boxing this is the best fight out there!!!

I agree......

[RL_GMA]

An HBO commentator thinking an HBO fighter will win? Shocking!

I wonder what he thinks of the other HBO fighter (Rios) using Memo? Thats right didnt even mention it.

I used to like Lampley too

[mex602]

lampley will over react to everything donaire does in the fight even if its not much like he would do with pacquiao

Yeah lampley was def a pactarrrrrd

He shifted fires to team Donaire

Don't forget, Rigo's last opponent was not as caliber and experienced as Donaire. And I think Donaire is too big for Rigo.

Dont forget, Donaire's left hook(POWER and speed) is way way better than the left hook of Rigo's last opponent. Rigo's got staggered many times from that sloppy left hook of his last opponent. So, how much more if Donaire's left hook landed on his face? The result will be devastating.

I'll pick Donaire by brutal TKO.. Rigo will kiss the canvas like Montiel did.

If Rigo is one dimensional then what does that make Donaire? You should stop making those claims.
