My story on @filipinoflash, who's out until spring with orbit fracture: http://espn.go.com/boxing/story/_

Was that the same eye that Rigo busted?

That's twice now that it gets blown up. Looks like HBO/Arum were aiming for Walters, not Rigo.

its from the rigo. it got softened up again by vic....

Man, Donaire is done. Orbital fractures are serious injuries. Donaire got embarrassed against Rigo, and looked really bad against Darchinyan. Donaire has struggled in the higher weight classes, I guess he was just successful against much smaller opposition when he was fighting in the lower weight classes.

At least no more southpaws for Donaire til he get's his **** together first Rigo now Vic it's obvious that bone has weakened, I really dislike his excusing ways but i don't want him sent to early retirement on some **** like this, this is the same type **** that aggravated for Margarito and retired him.

Now who know why he would drop from 140 to 112 to beat up a little guy

Now you have to wonder how hard Rigo hits.

He hit Donaire once on that eye and it instantly puffed up. And it's still damaged. It's not like he took a beating on it overtime like Margarito or Matthysse either.

That straight left shoots like a laser and hits like a wrecking ball.

Orbital fractures are serious but not uncommon. Donaire's not "done". People love to say that just to hear themselves talk. Paulie bounced back from one even.

Nonito needs to rest. Hopefully, he will use the time off to work on his deficiencies.
