So glad I got a free bet on Donaire at those odds, so lucky.

I see a youtube video in Burnett's future. Another installment of "when cherrypicking goes wrong". I had picked Donaire to get dominated. wow.

Donaire was landing a lot in every round. I think he would have taken over as the fight went on.
Burnett was getting caught too often for a slick, light puncher.

Possible but you have to wonder how he would have handled the rounds after cutting to 118.

Donaire looked sharp though no doubt

Nonito looked good in there the first two rounds I was worried this dude cut too much but he started letting his hands go in the third but wtf happen to Burnett did he pull a muscle?

What a shitty way to lose.

One thing that worries me is that Burnett landed a punch that seemed to bother Nonito a little bit and Burnett is not a puncher.
Nonito had an iron chin in his prime, so it's probably the weight cut and age.
Tete punches harder, but is very vulnerable. Imagine if Nonito pulls another upset.

... one simply can't just cherrypick Donaire -- that why it went wrong...

Kovalev is on his last legs Duva knows that so she would have accepted a good offer imo... I think Kovalev would have lost the semi.

Kovalev would have been a high seed so he would have gotten a gift fight in the first round, but likely loses to Alvarez in the semi.

Burnett didn't come out for the 5th cos he ****ed up his back. Think we call that a RTD 4 for the record books (and KO 4 for the Pick 'em).

EDIT: OK official result is TKO 5 for the Pick 'em. So KO MID for Donaire, don't think many people gonna win on that one, but there might be a couple.

Yeah might be a couple...

He pulled a muscle trying to move out of the way of the lumber Nonito was starting to land with regularity.

Let's not get things twisted...
