Nicholas Walters Vs Nonito Donaire. Who Wins?

[Hougigo]

I've been picking Walters since last year, and I think I'll stick with that. Donaire will lose if he looks for the power shot all night. He needs to mix it up and make the slower Walters hesitate.

Hate when he falls in love with it and just spends the whole night looking for it

I never once believed in the Hype. I knew from the get go that he wasn't that great. How did this guy get fighter of the year in 2012 over guys like Juan Manuel Marquez and even Danny Garcia. They all had better wins than Nonito did. ****, even Adrien Broner had better wins in 2012 than Nonito Donaire.

You can't be serious. JMM and Garcia maybe (though I don't think so), but Broner? In 2012 he beat DeMarco (good win but not foty material), Escobedo (remember the weight debacle?) and Perez (horrific bum). Nonito's 2012 campaign was eons better than that.

Crawford is being mentioned as the frontrunner for this year's foty award. Frankly, I don't think beating Burns (coming off 2 terrible fights), Gamboa (undersized, years removed from his last good performance) and Beltran (has six losses on his record for a reason) is much (if any) better than beating WV2, Mathebula, Nishioka and Arce.

Donaire is the better all around fighter he should get the win. Walters has plenty of power but as long as Donaire doesn't fight looking for the ko he should win.

Front runner for Fighter of the Year is the winner of Hopkins vs Kovalev. I pick Hopkins to win that fight and the award. However, If Algieri beats Pacquiao and does it in convincing fashion, then he should get it.

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

LOL you serious? The first fight, Donaire starched a younger, prime, undefeated Darchinyan that was fighting at probably his most effective weight class. Donaire wasn't troubled at all.

Walters beats an old, past prime, heavy, over-the-hill Darchinyan and you're trying to say it was better than Donaire's KO of the year? Donaire haters man...

And the annoying ass Donuts to return

Donuts: Idiotic Irrational fans of Nonito Donaire


But If Walters wins, Expect him to put Jamaica back on the Map in boxing, which I fully expect Walters to do.

You seem to be riding Walters's nuts pretty hard. Let's see how quickly you hop off them after Donaire knocks his block off.
