    You're point is invalid, Rigondeaux will want the fight and most of all want the fight providing him most funds which will undoubtedly be either Donaire or Mares.

    So only two fighters around basically in that division are going to see him earn the most coin.


    while what your saying is true , i don't want him to fight doniare again straight away.imho he should go for the mares bout , even though that could be a no goer anyway , but at least try to make the fight.yes , while rigo will make good money for fighting doniare again whats the point of it , he schooled him the first time and weren't people complaining that rigo fought boring .

      I agree. Every time Nonito tried to get aggressive with Rigo he got cracked. "El Chacal" was moving in for the kill in the twelfth. Had this been the old days, with 15 round championship fights, Donaire wouldn't have seen the final bell. In a return match, Guille might actually take Nonito out.

      It's hard to believe, however, that Rigondeaux could be better prepared in a rematch. He was on the razor's edge in the first fight. Besides that, Donaire was so inactive that Guille couldn't have seen much. No matter, "El Chacal" is Nonito's daddy.

        Rigo might be a bit boring to some to watch, but maybe in part has to do with him being incredibly disciplined in the ring. I think he's one, if not the most disciplined boxers today.

        He does what he has to to win, he's not a show-boater to boost sales for his fights. He gets in there and takes care of biz. But if Nonito let his hands go more in that fight, Dunno what would have happened. I was pissed at Doniare for that.

            What are the chances Bob Arum lets Donaire anywhere near Rigo again?

            Have people forgotten his post fight interview

              Donaire had the ****tiest camp of his life:

              Conte abandoned him in the middle of it, Garcia trained him by phone, he underestimated Rigo and allegedly didn't even watch any films of the cuban.
              Nonito was overall underprepared and badly distracted by his *****y wife and the impending birth of his child. He was also resenting a shoulder injury which will require surgery

              If you take all these facts into consideration, you have to admit a rematch is needed. Nonito was perhaps at 70% of his capacity, if we're optimistic

              I want to see how a 100%, fully prepared and healthy Nonito would do against el Chacal, it'd be a more competitive 50/50 fight probably

              Handicaped Nonito was able to do this, after all

              If he had a bad camp, thats his fault... He is a pro and should not have taken him lightly.. Floyd and manny always come prepared..

              Donaire got schooled. Badly.... I was shocked. I thought he would be rigo by ko but after watching the fight, RIGO IS THE REAL DEAL

              If they rematch it might be closer but same result. Just like Mosely-forrest and winky

                voted donaire at 100 would be more competitive but Rigo will win again

                  Didn't Donaire say he was having problems making 122? Rigo doesn't seem like he's going to move up anytime soon.

                    I'm a big fan of Donaire, but I was disappointed big time by his performance.

                    Be prepared and never underestimate your opponent is a part of being a good fighter, you can't use that as an excuse. If he was too dumb*ss to take Rigo seriously then it's his own problem not ours

                      Donaire don't want no more of Rigondeaux, his style is too ***in difficult to deal with, you can never look good against Rigondeaux style so trying to get a Decision over him is going to be hard and knocking him out will be even harder
