    Considered upsets at the time, if they do it again which has the best chance to avenge their loss (even if you think all would lose again):


    • Bute against Froch
    • Khan against Garcia
    • Donaire against Rigondeaux
    • Dawson against Stevenson


    :think

    IMO, Khan.

    Normally I would say Dawson. Just need to see that he is not done first.

    I personally think Donaire.

    I give Bute next to no chance against Froch, unless it took place in Canada, Bute somehow survived and it was a huge robbery.

    I feel Donaire can 'put a lot more right' in a rematch than Khan and Dawson can, plus he appears to be more mentally stable, and of course, Donaire has the power to turn anybodies lights out- whereas Dawson and Khan can easily have theirs put out even if they dominate- and at one point in a fight they are almost guaranteed to take one flush shot to the jaw by their hard punches opponents.

    While Rigondeaux is obvisoluy a superior boxer to Stevenson, Garica or Froch, he would be rematching the most elite opponent and I could see Donaire correcting all his mistakes and turning up in beast mode with a much better gameplan.

    I'm not sure he would be anymore after his performance in his last fight.

    Donaire hurt and dropped Rigo.

    Garcia's chin is questionable now after the Zab fight but Khan's power is below Donaire's, in their divisions.

    Froch is too tough and Stevenson hits too hard.

    Khan against Garcia for me. it would have to be the Khan from the Molina fight though. the one against Diaz would have no chance.

    i disagree about Donaire. if he went for it more in a rematch he'd be taken out from a counter. Donaire knew that the first time.

    in fact, Donaire wouldn't touch a rematch in any way shape or form. he'll definitely stay away.

    Bute has no chance. I don't think Dawson can come back and avenge that loss because of the brutal nature of it. I think that Donaire would have to KO Rigondeaux in order to win and I also think that if Khan lasts 12 he would outclass Garcia and pick up the victory.

    So what's more likely, that Donaire can KO/TKO Rigondeaux or that Khan can last the distance vs Garcia or KO/TKO him?

    I'd have to go with Khan.

    Donaire. This time he will catch Rigondeaux on that shaky chin and it will be goodnight.

    Donaire probably has the best chance but I wouldn't favor any of the four mentioned in a rematch

    None of the 4 you mentioned would win a rematch, well not likely anyway as anything can happen in boxing of course. I'll have to pick another rematch fight instead:

    Maidana vs Khan. Khan gets knocked out this time i'm almost certain as Khan's punch Resistance and stamina is worse without Ariza. And Maidana has improved his power punch set up, using the jab in combinations to set up straighter power shots than his usual loopy over hand rights.
