    I noticed that we didn't have a poll for this fight and that it is next week. I used the search feature and I couldn't find it for this fight.

    I pick Walters by KO RD 7 or 8.

      Walters beat Darchinyan with ease, and Nonito was having trouble both times before he stopped him.

          War Axe-Man! IMO this is where we see if Donaire has lost as much as we think he has. The Donaire of 4 years ago blows Walters out, but today Walters probably beats him.

            Whoever does the damage first, it could go either way.

              I like Donaire here.
              I think Walters is overrated personally he counters well, he has big power but hes quite slow and is terribly flat-footed.

              Reminds me of a big version of Montiel actually.

              Voted Donaire by decision.

                I've got my doubts about Donaire here. He could be in for a very uncomfortable night. I dont know the guy personally and I could well be wrong, but from the outside it looks like he's lost a lot of his hunger. If he's not 100% up for this I can see him getting stopped. Walters is hungry and has a lot of power, he makes quite a few mistakes, but if Donaire hasnt got his preparation spot on, both mentally and physically, he might find himself incapable of capitalising on Walters flaws.

                I'm well and truly on the fence with this one, each way bet.

                  True. But I think Walters plain and simple, is more hungry than Donaire for success.

                    Donaire hasn't looked spectacular in any of his recent fights. He will need to be spectacular against the hungry Axe-Man.
