    but he's skilled enough to avoid a bad whoopin'.

    he might get koed eventually, but it won't be easy to land clean easily for the most part.

    i expect donaire to look sloppy pushing the issue and rigo using every skill he has to avoid big exchanges.
    Exactly, he might have the power but I don't think Nonito is an easy guy to stop or deter and I don't think Rigondeaux will do enough work to make his power effective. It could be a replay of the Narvaez fight, but I hope (for my sake) he learned from that and I do think Rigondeaux will try to win a bit more.

        People keep saying rigo via decision but I just don't see that happening unless rigo just straight out class donaire in every round which I just can't see happening. I think rigo will have his moments but donaire will win whether its a ko, tko or decision but safe bet donaire got this.

          I'm also expecting the same thing. Rigo is very defensive and wouldn't be surprised if he does the Narvaez.

            I think once rigo gets clocked he will back pedal like he did in the cordoba fight. He will run and try and counter. Nonito will be stalking and landing when he can. Rigo doesnt have the punch output to take rounds from donaire. And the 1st 4 rounds will be boring aside from the anticipation of someone throwing and landing.
