    Awesome preview, only one thing I want to say, who is Mathebula? I felt that this Donaire is a bit overrated.

    Can't you smell sarcasm?

    Once again you establish yourself as one of the top posters on esb. Lets see Canelo-Trout in which(just like in this fight) I see same outcome as you.

    I honestly don't think it had much to do with Rigo gaining Donaire's respect, even if he did. It's not like Donaire's was ever any good on the front-foot. He was simply frustrated, and honestly had trouble landing on Rigo. You could tell through his body language when he was getting rough and picking Rigo up. I'm sure compubox has him landing at like a 15% rate.

    Honestly, I don't think he was too worried about the power now that I think about it. Donaire ran into left and right hands in the 10th round like a frustrated schoolboy. He came in peeka boo like Mike and just ran into punches to try to get his in. He simply just couldn't deal with Rigo's ability and always had issues when initiating any sort of offense. No jab, and way too much one punch happy. Donaire has always been that. Most knew of such vulnerabilities but never quite knew how great/special Rigo was. Honestly, Rigo never looked better.

    Rigo is the new sweet pea ,nobody is going to beat this guy with his style ,I had the Flash winning by KO ,but what I saw last night was a boxing show down and I mean nobody is going to beat this guy unless he beats himself.
