Comments Thread For: Nonito Donaire Repeats, Knocks Darchinyan Out in Nine

Not impressed by Nonito tonight.
I think Rigo took his heart. Sad, because I loved to watch Nonito, but I don't see him being the same fighter he was pre Rigo.
I had Vic up prior to this stoppage, and this is an old, worn out Vic.

ill chalk up Donaire's slow start to him recovering from surgery and being too cautious

great TKO

vic had that fight in the bag and donaire just took the entire fight with just 1 punch i think donaire is done at the top he didnt look good at all these last 2 fights

He got ****** and got confident and in true Vic fashion he gave Nonito the angle. It was more Vic making a huge tactical error than Donaire creating it. Vic should have reset imo after landing the upper as he had been doing (or jumping on him) after landing hard. Instead he landed it, hesitated and stayed in the pocket with a bad angle and footing. ******. Donaire is too sharp to lazily hold out that right to measure him at that distance.

I thought vic was going to expose donaire...its a shame... all mouth!
He may have win that fight, but thats boxing.. to all who says donaire is garbage, try to challenge him one on one...if you cant win, try winning with money, oh wait, hes a millionaire, are you?

Most of this post is pointless....actually, although Vic lost he did continue to expose Donaire.

Donaire was losing rounds because he wasnt throwing punches. When he throws punches, he would win the rounds.

Why is everyone so surprised that Donaire looked bad tonight? The dude hasn't fought since he fought Rigo, plus he's coming off a surgery. Was he suppose to be lightning fast after such a long lay off and surgery?

Rigo took his soul. Without hbo making excuses, he would be done.

Nah man, HBO just ripped Donaire a bit

I'm wondering if we made Donaire to be better than he was.

I mean he made his name fighting a so so fighter in Montiel,
beating a grandpa in Arce, and an amateur in Vasquez. Against Rigo he lost, and a very old and faded Vic gave him trouble.

Maybe Donaire isn't who we thought he was.
