I'm fine with a rematch only if Donaire wants a shot to avenge his loss. These excuses I'm reading are BS though. If the shoulder injury was significant (if it existed at all), Donaire could have called off the fight and rescheduled. It didn't seem to bother him when he fought 4x in 2012 and won fighter of the year. Donaire looked scared and tentative in the ring. He looked lost from round 1 and that doesn't change in the rematch.
Do you really think he hadn't seen much film on Rigo when the fight took place or that he took Rigo lightly?
I think he saw a lot of Rigo leading up to the fight and that's why he was so hesitant in round 1. Those sharp counters gave Donaire a lot to think about during the fight. That's why he wasn't very competitive for most of it.

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

Agreed. He definitely doesn't deserve an immediate rematch.

Hasn't Donaire been embarrassed enough?
Feck it make it happen! There is nobody else left and tbh I could never get tired of Rigo schooling Donaire, that was a masterclass. It'll be a more thorough beating than the first encounter.
