    You're right OP. This was not a schooling, it was in fact a very boring fight to watch. Lacy-Calzaghe is a schooling. I kept yelling for Donaire to let his hands go. I yelled for Rigo to stop running and fight. I just wanted to see some action and barring the 10th and 12th round, it was pretty much a snooze fest.

    I'm sure all these fans would be okay with shelling out $70 if this fight was on PPV and have zero buyers remorse LOL. I don't know about you but I don't have money to light on fire.

    It was not an action packed fight from start to finish but it was closer to a schooling then the alternative. Donaire just didn't have the legs.

    Schooling means landing punches and not getting hit bro. Donaire wasnt landing much.. Rigo wasn't landing much either. Constantly backing off, and lulling a guy to sleep is not a boxing clinic dude. You have to throw punches. And as far as your scorecard goes, both BobSheridan and Tim Bradley had the fight super close up to the last rounds. You cant say one guy was easily winning all the rounds when he's barely doing anything either. Get ****ing real.

    Oh you want to talk about coming back down from space? It was YOU Donaire fans who heavily complained that Rigo didn't deserve the fight and that he is NOWHERE NEAR Donaire's level. A great deal of ND fans made countless threads about Rigo being a glass jawed bum who was going to get destroyed. Donaire was made out to be this invincible, unbeatable God at 122. Oh please. He is good but he was never really that good. Come back to Earth.

    Even if it was somewhat of a competitive fight (which is a stretch since I had ND winning only 2 rds), it was Donaire who got embarrassed because he was supposed to annihilate "Rigobum/Rigondeglass" or whatever the **** you call him.

    :yep

    I honestly didn't know who would the win at the end. I thought it could be a close decision for either guy or a draw. I believe the rounds were tough to score because neither guy was doing much. Donaire was the aggressor but not letting his hands go enough and Rigo was running but not letting his hands go much either. Rigo shots seemed to be more eye-catching and that it what the judges favored. I don't have a problem with the decision but just the fanboy hysteria. 11 rounds to 1? Really? You only gave Donaire the 10th?

    Again, a schooling would be like Vitali Klitchko-Adamek or something along those lines.

    A 8-4, 9-3 score is a schooling.

    Let's have your score(just for laughs).

    And BobSheridan proved he DKSAB. He said he had Nonito ahead based on "ring generalship" :lol:

    "schooling" is not just about the # of punches landed, u ****ing idiot..

    it's about making your opponent fight your fight, keeping him frustrated, while being steps ahead of them, which Rigondeaux managed to do..

    he was quicker to the punch, more elusive defensively/rarely got touched, crispier counters/punches, and most importantly, out landed him and won about 10 rounds... if this fight wasn't a schooling, i don't know what is..

    Donaire did absolutely nothing better than Rigondeaux aside from scoring a lucky knock down due to the fact taht Rigo wasn't ready and was expecting a break from the ref..

    u must be looking for attention or something..
