Originally posted by -Body Snatcher- View PostGetting caught in the 1st round doesn't really say much. I think it's worse to get dominated over 12 rounds because it shows who the better fighter is. Is gonzalez really better than Mares? can you absolutely have a solid answer? Probably not. Rigondeaux clearly beat Donaire so you can say Rigondeaux is better than Donaire.
He caught him cold with a good counter left hook. If they fought again I would make Mares a favorite again. It happens.
Do I agree Mares would beat Gonzalez next time? Not necessarily. Styles make fights and this is clear case. But I'll tell you that Mares would only have one loss on his record if he fought Donaire's resume. Can't say the same if Donaire took on his.

I'm just referring to how garbage he was before he fought Donaire because there are delusionals in this thread that still can't accept the fact that Rigo is the only legit name on Donaire's resume. Maybe Darchinyan... even that's debatable.

Let's not forget that Gonzalez was already mulling retirement going into that fight along with the fact he couldn't make weight anymore. Gee, that must have been the only fighter who was KTFO in a fight they struggled to make weight for.
