    The more and more I analyze the fight, I see Donaire vs Rigondeaux being very similar to Garcia vs Khan. Donaire and Garcia are both orthodox and their best punches are their huge left hooks. Rigo and Khan are the better technical boxers but both also have glass chins. If Rigo wants to win the fight he must not get into a slug-fest with Donaire and try and win a 12 round decision by boxing defensively. The problem is that Donaire is great at cutting off the ring and will bring the fight to Rigo.

    What will people say if, in my opinion when, Donaire knocks Rigo out?

    "Feasted on a novice and further proof of his horrible resume and unwillingness to fight the best" would be my guess.

    last i checked, rigo was a southpaw.
    and nonito is left handed, so he's considered a converted orthodox.

  11. LOL, hilarious. Ribumwho might get knocked out like that though. That little amateur rat doesn't belong at the professional level.

    He's never been KO
    Got a count on his fight against cordoba but he wasn't hurt.
    Got hurt against marroquin but didn't require a count, showed excellent recovery and composure .
    That's the whole story.

    Where does the myth that Khan is good technically come from? He's one of the least skilled boxers I've ever seen competing at that level. He's fast, in and out in straight lines with no punch variation. Khan is absolute garbage and should never be compared to Rigondeaux.
