    No, he lives in California. Hes Filipino through and through. Born & raised.

    In fact I think he still lives in the Philippines and just trains in Cali.

      He was old, inactive, plagued by injuries, coming off unimpressive performances. He barely got by a shopworn, heavily faded Raf Marquez whose looked 1/10th of what he was for some years now.

      His break will of only hurt him at that age.

      Its a good win based mainly off of name value.

        People need to put their worthless epoints where their mouth is. I would bet my house or car and back up my beliefs.

        I expect this TS to bet all his points for this fight. Otherwise....

          His wins are looking alright about now, Donaires not so much.

          Most of Donaires wins only look decent because of name value. I legitimately believe Cordoba is at least on their level.

          Cordoba beat a prime Sydorenko twice (robbed) & smashed apart a prime Caballero.
          Hold on, at least on who's level? Darchinyan, Nishioka and Montiel? Take it easy Dan.

          Maybe on Mathebula's level, certainly no higher.

            Exactly what I am doing and real cash. I'd offer you a bet but you're e-broke. I'll give you a 100 billion e-points if Donaire pulls it off.

              TS, what will you say about Donaire if he smashes Rigo?

                if donaire beats rigo he will have cleaned out the 122 division...
                shots fired!!!!

                  Nishioka is a great name to have on your record but he was done & I've always said he caught him at the right time. I feel he didn't look very good prior to his semi-retirement/inactivity.

                  I give Donaire props for chasing that fight & I give him props for taking this fight but his 2012 run is looking worse & worse.
                  Da fuq? you discredit Donaires wins because his opponents don't look spectacular or wins after he destroys them? You are pathetic. So I guess by your standards you dont really rate the best P4P fighter today Mayweather because his past opponents have done **** all after he beat them.

                  De la hoya got destroyed by pac.
                  Hatton got destroyed by pac.
                  Cotto got schooled by trout.
                  Ortiz got stopped by Lopez.
                  Mosley looked like crap after.

                  I'm guessing you dont give floyd props for those wins?
                  Note: Not trying to make this a mayweather thread I'm just making an example how pathetic the TS hate for donaire is.

                    Darchinyan was a very good fighter in the lower weights but at 118 & 122 especially not so much, I don't think he belongs there and wouldn't beat Cordoba head-to-head. He certainly passes Cordboa by a huge margin with achievements etc

                    I'll give you the other two though, they very likely both beat him but I am really not sure what Nishioka had left in the tank. Not much by the way he looked that night & I'm not sure that was so much Donaires doing.
