Remember he was a Floyd hater,Floyd called him out on it,and since after the Ortiz fight he became PRO Floyd,even as going as far to mock Pac when he was KO'd..
You can't give Donaire a win under any circumstances. At all. Even 114-113 for Donaire is comically bad.
Agree, he was outlclassed. Rigo's performance was one for the real boxing fans. Any one who has ever boxed has to appricate the talent. Maybe Top Rank should start their own leauge with their own rules because they only seem to want "action, bloody fights"
It was a closer fight than what many people think. Rigondeaux was back up most of the fight and you need to reward the guy that comes forward.
You don't "need to reward the guy that comes forward" when he's being comprehensively out-boxed. You really don't. Rounds are scored on, amongst other things, "effective aggression" not just coming forward.
You can't reward running and that's what Rigondeaux did all night long. Donaire tried to press the action but it takes two to tango.
