good fight .. with nonito's latest showing combined with his history vs concepcion , i have to favor santa cruz at this point...

Donaire stoppage, maybe trailing on the cards at the time.

You want to plod towards Donaire aimlessly throwing with not a care in the world for defense then goodluck!

Donaire could stop Santa Cruz, and I REALLY like Santa Cruz.

It's just his style truly is balls to the wall, and if Donaire has any sort of confidence he WILL land counter shots.

Cruz is exciting, yes but mark my words he is nothing special.

He is a mini Nathan Cleverly with less smarts.

Rigondeaux obliterates him.
Frampton knocks the kid into orbit.
Donaire ices him

I'm really not sure he'd beat current Montiel or Darchinyan or Quigg or Avalos. If Kiko gets by Mathebula that is a fight I would LOVE to see. I think Mathebula outboxes Cruz too in a stinker.

I'm just not sold on this guy as a top tier fighter.
