    You ****ing kidding me? That was more like ballroom dancing.

    Seems Donaire got saddled with the entire task of making it a fight.

    Rigo is the type of fighter who will shoo away fans from the boxing sport.

    If he becomes P4P #1, boxing popularity will be at record low and the only possible reason for boxing fans to buy his PPV is to see him get KTFO.

    :yep

    Don't say that or YDKSAB. I wouldn't dispute the decision but it was closer than people giving Rigo 10 rounds (or whatever) and it wasn't the sweet science by any stretch of the imagination.

    Load up your DVR for closet classics with fantastic display of skill, like Hakkar-Hopkins, Dirrell-Stevens, Baldomir-Mayweather.

    ****s like you will finally realize that defense combined with great skills wins championships. The sweet science once again reigns supreme.

    Yet Donaire runs from Rigo in the 12th when the fight mattered. Let me run at Rigo like an idiot. Oh my eye, my eye, my poor eye. Didn't look that bad to me. Or am I imagining things like you?

    I'm going to be honest here, at the risk of sounding like "I don't know **** about boxing", it's true that Rigondeaux displayed a great application of boxing, hitting while not getting hit at it's core, but did nothing to increase his personal stock in making money
