    When you say whoever, you actually mean it literally? he is turning into Roy Jones Jr. Junior. At least RJJ fought credible opponents once in a while.

    I have no problems with Donaire fighting Nish but people saying that Nish is better than Rigo is laughable. Donaire already admitted that he needs to sharpen up his skills before fight Rigo. He already know that he will get his ass whooped by Rigo is sad really.

    Mares has 1 fight above 118, a 120 catchweight vacant belt bout against #10 rated bantam Morel. Strange rankings you got there

    You are the ****ing idiot, I didn't say that Nishioka is ducking Rigondeaux and not even mention Arce, it is however what Donaire say when he moved to 122, he want to collect all the belts in other words unified the 122 division, but after Rigondeaux won one the belts he say that he will be happy with three, now you tell me who has the third Belt? Mares is with GBP... He is ducking Rigondeaux for one reason or another but don't fool yourself, he ain't want any part of the Cuban because Nishioka doesn't hold any belt and is an old fighter for the 122 lbs division, we know he is past his prime, so go fuk your self.
    Arce didn't want to fight Rigondeaux neither the Portorro Rojas.

    You going for the rankings, right, So Mathebula was one of the best and a past prime and old Nishioka is #1? I'm going with talent and quality that's my ranking...

    Ranking, resume at the weight, whatever measure you wanna use, Nishioka is far above Mares at 122. Even Mathebula is at least as good as any Rigo opponent, much better than his last 3.

    Nishioka is past his prime, I'm not arguing about his resume and Mathebula being as good as Teon, Casey and Ramos I think you are right but then why not fight a guy that has a belt that supposedly he coveted, it will shut a lots fans mouth and will prove he ain't ducking him? Don't give me the fan base and high/risk low rewards BS, Mathebula and Narvaez didn't have any fan base either.

    I'm cool with the Nishioka fight but lets not act like he was trying to get Arce first and also the fact that a Rigo fight is far more appealing and called for by everyone. Nishioka is a fight he desrves credit for if he wins though even though the guy's past his best and even at his best isn't in Rigo's league. This would be like Chavez Jr fighting Sturm instead of Sergio- good fight against a solid champ that's a little past it, deserves credit for it but not as good as much as if he fought the man everyone wants to see him against. Donaire continues to act like Rigo's not worthy which is making him look like a duck since the entire boxing world considers him more than worthy and most legit test of Donaires careeer.

    ps: None of you, not one was calling for a Donaire vs Nishioka fight until now, stop frontin. boxing fans want to see Donaire vs Rigo! Nishioka's a good win for Donaire but if he beats Nishioka and then runs up to 126 to avoid Rigo **** him. If he fights Rigo next then perfect. And for all you clowns claiming Rigo needs to establish himself further first: a) this is already the fight the majority of the boxing world wants for Donaire so thsat would be incorrect. b) Rigo has tried to get fights with the top dogs that aren't Nonito but no one wants to fight the guy, he's too high risk/low reward. Donaire was like that once and Darchinyan gave him a shot, time to show his balls and give Rigo the chance after Nishioka, if he moves after Nishioka he's a *****.

    One has actually been in a position to take on good opponents and he/his promoters have chosen not to do so. Donaire has had loads of guys calling his name for the past year, while no one decent has actively sought out Rigondeaux.
