    this guy is a prime "superstar" it'll be nice if he could fight a live body. its pathetic. he fights the same opponents some hypejob "star prospect" would fight



    he don't even beat them in spectacular fashion either

    Instead of making threads about Donaire's career you should have spent time familiarizing yourself with it. Then make a thread about it. See how that works?

    He's faced five championship names in a row stretching back two years of opponents and tonight makes six. Which one of them is a "can" in your humble opinion?

    I have him at number #2 and coincedently hes my second favorite fiight. Nonito has been avoided since destroying all the giants of BW division.

    his team is still trying to make himself comfortable at the weight. didn't look good in his last fight at 122. it would be stupid to put him against arce, rigo or even mares.

    Sorry to disagree with you but I think the thread stater is correct when he states that Donaire is over-rated. He refuses to fight guys that have the same talent level or where he doesnt have the advantages. He may give up height but then the fighter has no pop in his punches. Aainst Vazquez junior he looked very amateurish. I challenge him to step up and fight Rigo, Mares and even a Perez or moreno would be a step up in competition. Though Vic and Montiel were great victories the praise heaped on a supposedely top 4 P4P guys needs to see more great wins on his resume. Theres no way he should be ahead of a Marquez or a ward even a Klitscthe judges rank him high until he fights a Rigo and then I think he will be exposed.

    Is this the same Mares that got KD against a 115 lb Vic Darcinyan?

    Is this the same Rigondeaux that ran against Cordoba?

    His P4P ranking might be over exaggerated IMO.
    But his skills are elite.

    As he goes up tho (weight) the limitations are showing a bit.
    I look forward to tonigh's fight.

    Jeffery is 5'11 OH ****!!

    Bute on any P4P list is laughable!
