    When is it going to sink in that what someone does in the Amateur career is irrelevant to what they do in their pro career?

    Will it ever?

      The same thing they said about Rigo/Donaire, and look what happened.

          Get a grip the odds were only 2-1, and most of them talking were just loud mouth Nonito fans, their next big hope.

            Rigo's only knock was the fact that he had a bunch of fights in the amateurs, but not the pros. People didn't think that could translate against Donaire.

            Guess what, that wasn't the case.

                    A lot of people actually, including expert analysts. EVERYONE knew he had skills, but the question was, will his mainly amateur background be a detriment to him in the pros???

                    That was the biggest question.

                      Just as I thought.

                      My post about his Amatuer career had nothing to do with his ability to transition as a Pro.
