    First half of the fight Zaragoza had plenty of good moments in the fight and was tagging Morales cleanly. Granted, Morales was raw but Zaragoza put a good fight up to round 6 before Morales adjusted and took over in the later rounds.

    Similarly, the fight between Morales and Zaragoza was also a highly entertaining fight between the young up and comer and old veteran. That was also a great passing of the torch fight.

      Did someone say they had done one for this fight? I musta missed it if they did.
      oh yah thats true then thats why he looked so much bigger then!

      The announcers said the IBF 2nd weigh in hurts ND but we all know the announcers dont know shat. Look at that Chris Mannix guy make fool of himself all over the DAZN broadcasts.

        I knew it was gonna be a good fight that’s why I was hyped about it and telling people about it. But I missed it lmfao. This sht happened in the morning or something?

        Anyway styles make fights and in his recent fights Donaire showed he can still fight.

          Lol at all these comments by band wagon hoppers. Before the fight, Nonito was shot and was gonna get dominated but now he is a legendary fighter?

          Only very few people actually thought Nonito had a serious chance and i was one of them.

            Donaire was very experienced and determined, he’s also still a very good fighter..

            Inoue hasn’t got much experience yet in big fights

            Plenty of great fighters have had tough fights against guys they were expected to beat comfortably, that’s boxing.

              Inoue is very good but hype for unproven fighters is out of control. Badlefthook writers all picked Inoue by ko within 5. I thought that was outrageous, and similar to Spence, GGG, etc, he struggled when matched against another elite fighter. Which there’s nothing wrong with. The guy got the win and that’s all that matters.

                Honestly. Hype gets out of control. Every prediction i saw picked Inoue under 6. I thought Donaire would give him hell and get stopped late or maybe lose by decision.

                  right on.

                  Were at all impressed with Inoue's ability to overcome adversity and to adjust?
