    Um, think Rigo needs to be ready for him. You could see the power Nonito got in that shot. I think he schools Rigo.

    People want to see the lighter weight fighters fight like Morales, Barrera, Pacquiao fought. Donaire's stock will plummet if he doesn't make the proper adjustments. Even Marquez made them and it helped his bottom line.

    He could look good again if Arum fed an old Arce to him

    Fossil Bob will predictably match Donaire against Arce. Not a bad fight but not what people want.

    Here's an idea, make that fight and put Rigo-Darchinyan on the undercard, mini touney style. That's a card worth supporting.

    That speech by Donaire...hardcore ducking of Rigo. He's not excited for him because he hasnt proved himself? BS. Just say too risky.

    No one can touch this guy, this guy actually gets bored with inferior competition and when its a name rank fighter, He just embarrases them like they have no skills. Not a ****n single round.

    Of course Donaire had something to do with it. Let's see him fight Garcia or Moreno, if he beats either of those guys I will flat out admit I am wrong about Donaire. I expected more out of Nishi, the guy didn't seem to come to win the fight.

    Thats what i heard. Hinting bouncing out of the division. He avoided the best at 118, and doing it again at 122.

    Donaire interview was a little awkward. He needs to be straight with his answers.

    Nishioka gave him every opportunity to look good by standing there and doing absolutely nothing. Donaire cant create an offense at all unless the other guy is throwing punches . That speaks to a fundamental flaw in Donaire.

    To be frank , Nishioka looked half his size which made Donaire's performance even more embarassing.

    Shut up max you bitter bum....who care about the stoppage. At end of the night he shouldn't be bitching he should be pumping the tires of both fights....who gives a **** if it wasn't the greats great fight ever.....Gatti-Ward was just supposed to be a good action fight but not much more then an entertaining stepping stone for Gatti on his way to a title shot in the 140 lb division.

    Tonights fight was ****ing awesome, Max don't be a bitter you know what.

    Boxing is making a comeback. We got new p4p blood not named Mayweather, Marquez and Pacquiao.
