    Got to feel for the lad. Was looking like a good fight brewing too. Shame all round
    So Nonito won out of sheer dumb luck

    this is like talentless England football team getting to the semis in the last WC, just because they were lucky getting nothing but bum teams as opponents all the way through

      Never seen a boxer breaking his own back while throwing punch. First time for everything.

          Donaire has been champion before. This isn’t something new for him.

            I think Donaire can beat Tete. He still has some of the old magic left.

              FOr sure.. tete is too conservative to trouble Nonito imo.

              Styles make fights and i agree nonito can beat Tete.

                Tete is a very good boxer and counterpuncher.but has not chin.

                Donaire will K.O him.

                Mark my words.

                  Shame.
                  As much as I think he is a brilliant boxer I do think he is injury prone and it will hound him. His hand now his back, this is like 10 fights worth of time carrying something as far as I'm aware.

                    No.

                    It’s more like one of the best dynasties being reformed in their later year and facing off against someone they were more than live against but then the star player of the other team gets injured.

                    S hit happens. Donaire was by far the more proven of the two in the ring even if he’s old.

                    Lucky, yes. Talentless? Hardly.

                      I hope so. Tete can definitely be hurt.
