Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux Shocks Donaire, Wins Big Decision To Unify

[KickAzz]

Donaire couldn't make any adjustments and Garcia didn't have any answers for Donaire. They were anticipating that Donaire would have equal or faster speed than Rigondo, but they should have prepared for the case that Rigondo would be faster. Its true that Rigondo kept doing the same thing, but Nonito couldn't capitalize on that.

Its funny seeing how pugilistically ignorant boxing fans, and even staff employee are now a days. How can u not see that Rigo waas the better fighter? He is the best at 122 and Donaire is nobody. Hes pathetic making excuses. Rigo did very well. He couldve even thrown more punches and KO donaire if he wantes to, but he chose not too. Donaire would be wise to not fight him again. All that **** he talked and couldnt back it up. Go back to fighting garbage ppl like Vazquez jr. And Mathebula.

This fight was far from boring..

I mean seriously..I can appreciate a Rios-Alvarado type fight any night..

but it's very few and far in between that you have someone like Rigo totally outclass a world class fighter like Donaire in the fashion that he did..I mean look at round 10..Donaire came out BLAZING and dropped Rigo..Rigo got up and went to regularly scheduled programming like it never happened...

I was on my feet watching this fight from round 2 thru 12!..

Movement counter punching defense won Rigo the fight Donaire had no answers for the crafty slick southpaw

[torchemup]

Rigo is all class he reminds me of Floyd . ROberto Garcia is overrated as Donaire

[Rajon34]

I said it not long ago. Rigondeaux is amazing to watch Tonight he was not as exciting , but you cant blame him for that. He was up agaisnt a very good donaire who is dangerous.

He used his footwork and counters to win. He boxed! I think he could of threw more bodyshots, because honestly he couldnt miss with those. Way too quick .

Also he wasnt hurt by the knockdown he was off balance aswell.


And that shot at the end wham! Donaire felt the sting of that

118-109 Rigondeaux.
