Its funny watching the usual floboner suspects ragging on this guy because he is a pinoy. We all know why they do it and that just makes it even funnier. On the topic though, maybe he will do well at featherweight. If he does stick at 122 he is going to have to try and reverse against Rigo or go for Mares. Both very tough opponents and Rigo may well move up to126.

You really begin to sound very insecure. It's also funny that you haunt every single Mayweather thread on these boards. And even if it's not a thread about Mayweather you still mention him.


On topic:

Donaire won't fight Mikey unless he splits from Robert and I am beginning to think that he should look for a new trainer. Garcia is working with so many high profilers these days. Donaire's (lack of) preparation for Rigo is just one example. Rigo still wins 8 out 10 times against Donaire though. Like Max said, Donaire has probably been a victim of his own success against less high caliber fighters.
Vic D.,Montiel, Narvaez, Nishioka, Arce (way past his prime though), Vasquez Jr, Mathebula were all good names but Rigo is a class or two above them.

Donaire wants Mares. Maybe Rigo afterwards IF Rigo moves up to 126. Donaire won't fight him at 122 again. Belee dat!

hope they make donaire vs chris john..that's an easy shot at a belt and chris john has kept that wba super belt hostage long enough!

and if donaire beats chris john then he should try and force arum to make a mares fight..it'll be a wba super and wbc unification fight..

Is he going up or not wtf or is he trying an excuse pre ready for next time he looses at 122.

Lol about Chris John! John is a great technical fighter, but I agree with yall and would love to see him against M. Garcia, Gradovich, Juanma, or Mares!

he should forget rigo...there are better fights at 126...rigo is donaire's antidote...good if rigo will engage, but the problem is rigo knows engaging donaire is suicide...same thing will happen in a rematch...

mares would be an easy fight for donaire but certainly not rigo...

Rigondeaux engaged Donaire and the one reeling back was Donaire, from the first left he land donaire knew he was in trouble, at the end the one going backwards and hurt with donaire...

Donaire fought the 1st fight all wrong. He does much better in a rematch. He head hunted with single shots and that played right into Rigo's skillset.

The only time Donaire threw a combination, he landed the 2nd and 3rd shots. You'd see him wake up and be much busier in a rematch and force Rigo to take more risks by not giving away the rounds to him.

Rigondeaux will KO Donaire in a rematch, Donaire was a least 140 lbs that night and he got hurt anyway, the busier he is the more punishment he will take, he is not faster than Rigondeaux and the Cuban is sharper, smarter and a better boxer all around...

the only time donaire really went on his bike was in the 12th round ...but for most of the fight it was donaire coming forward.
