    Seriously come down from outer space for a second. A boxing clinic happens when you actually significantly out land the other guy and dont get touched up yourself, this was anything but. Rigo barely did anything, and neither did Donaire. That was more of a staring contest then a boxing clinic. Aside from the first several rounds and the end rounds, the fight went to a lull with both guys hesitating to do anything. I gave Donaire 3 or 4 of the earlier rounds then I just stopped caring after that bc neither guy was doing ****.

    Donaire scored a nice knockdown, and he should of went straight after Rigo after that but he couldnt let his hands go. This has been a consistent problem with Donaire (he looks for one big punch), and his fault that he lost.

    Either way, good job of Rigo by making Donaire lead and follow him around, but he barely did anything to capitalize on it. Still got the W so a wins a win.

    Your a straight dumbass to call that a boxing clinic. I'm not even a Donaire fan. But getting knocked down, and throwing 2 punches a round and getting hit pretty evenly is not a clinic.

    :lol: Boo hoo. :|

    Robert Garcia must have done a hell of a job of kicking the **** out of Donaire then. I mean, according to you, Rigo didn't land much, well, Donaire sure looks like he took a beating.

    It wasn't even close to a clinic. Don't know who that bum was in the ring with Rigo. Couldn't have been 2012 FOTY, #3 P4P, supposedly ATG, taller, younger, faster and stronger Donaire. The same Donaire who mocked Rigo at the weigh-in crouching to get to Rigo's eye level.

    Can't even be called an upset. An upset is when a champ loses a close one to a guy whom the champ is heavily favored against. This was a mismatch of huge proportion.

    I put this performance as one of the standout performances between two elite fighters in the last 10 years in the class of Hopkins-Tito and Floyd-Corrales.

    There was a clinic tonight. The staff sought to mend the collective broken heart of the Filipino people following the collapse of *******landia.

    The patient died on the table.
