    I did Galway, Killarney, Limerick and Dublin. Toured the Ring of Kerry, and the Cliffs of Moher. Had great fun at the pubs with the locals, and ate great food everywhere. (I understand the food quality has soared over the years.) Can’t say enough good things. I’d recommend that trip to anyone.

      You’ll be taking the proverbial sand to the beach. Lol Lots of pretty girls out there, and friendly, too. Everyone is gregarious, actually. It’s part of the culture, as you know. Don’t miss the Cliffs this time. Breathtaking sight. Hope the weather is as good for you as it was for me.

          Styles makes fights. Donaire weakness are boxers. He doesn't look good against them because he is a counterpuncher. That was an excellent win for Rigo because Donaire was more accomplished than Russell. Russell is visually impressive and in his loss never stopped trying to win.

          Rigor's fight looked better but does not take away that his style is not appealing to the masses

            I thought Rigo did and Donaire was top 3 P4P at the time. That Lomachenko performance was great though but I don't view GRJ as a great fighter at all. Can't believe a lot of people were riding with Russell on that one, I knew Lomachenko would easily take it. Gary still hasn't done anything of note and his only claim to fame is whooping an old ass Gonzalez.

              1 year is common in the game. Rigo beat donaire but axeman destroyed him.

                Agreed. fanboys tend to forget how good donaire was back then. Rigondeaux took his soul for sure. he, donaire, hasn't being the same since. walter's fought a shadow of donaires, older and heavier.

                  how many years after Rigondeaux took donaires confidence, and at what weight?

                    The same Nonito was getting hurt and beaten by old Vic the next fight and Vic was doing better then Rigo did. He thought about quitting, lucky he got that shot in. Nonito was already fading. The cracks were there before the Rigo fight.

                      it baffles me that people here don't know or don't take into account that donaire was thinking at the time about laying up the gloves, just had a child didn't train properly for that fight, didn't have a fantastic training camp, that was not the best donaire there ever was, think Rigo got him at just the right time, when he started his decline, and donaire may have been high on the p4p rankings but didn't he get outboxed by darchiniyan before he knocked him out? i guess i'm just not as high on Donaire as other people.
                      it was still very good win nonetheless, i would put it over russell but not over walters, who has always had long layoffs, check boxrec if you don't believe me
                      ,anyway it doesn't matter because Lomachenko is a whole different animal then Donaire,
                      and Rigo is a whole other animal then Walters.
