    Too many to mention but I'll start:

    The right hook roll under ala prime PAC was brilliant.

    Thought this move was exceptional as well:

    Paws a couple times with the right, throws the hook, then parries Donaire's right whilst stepping back. RiGOD a G.

    Crazy how slow and lumbering Donaire looks in this gif.

    His footwork was insane, as well as his upper body movement. Those sharp left hand counters were a thing of beauty, his body shots and yeah he really impressed me with his right hook too.

    I recall him throwing a couple left uppercuts which were a thing of beauty.

    The fact that he would immediatly answer back with a harder shot after being tagged was great to watch...Especially after many of the trolls around here were saying that once he felt Dumbnaire's power he would start running for dear life. :lol::patsch

    His composure. I already knew that his skills were of an extremely high level anyway, but didn't know if he was composed enough to use them at that high a level in the pro's. Especially after the knockdown, it didn't change anything, didn't panic, got back to work. Crowd booing? Who gives a ****, I'll stick to the gameplan and let Donaire get frustrated.

    His footwork. It's mental, he can cover half the ring in a split second.

    Yeah man. He was ready at all times to out fight Donaire, which was unexpected; 9 times out of 10 he would the victor in all exchanges.
