Did Donaire made the wrong gameplan?

    damn his face looked horrible. Donaire's confidence is going down. He needs a couple of tune up fights to regain confidence. I never heard of walters before, hes a beast.

    NOPE. He thought he was naturally gifted and didn't want to pay Victor Conte. He's been B-level since. Should have payed the man, he would still be on top.

    I picked Donaire by UD. I thought his experience in big fights would give him the edge.

    Nope. Donito was only good against midgets. When he moved up he struggled. Paquiao at his age was fighting at 140.

    Nonito has always been a special fighter...quick and explosive it just so happens he met a man with his own physical gifts that seemingly nullified what he does best. Walters is a dangerous man he has solid fundamentals, tenacity and in a strange way real durability with the focus to keep the eye on the prize. Theres certaintly nothing flashy about the guy he's just a solider and a damn good one.

    The man has relied on his athletic prowess namely reflexes and speed for too long. He tried going toe to toe with a bigger stronger fighter and got his ass beat.

    Donaire and Pacquiao cant really be compared physically tbh. At this weight Donaire looks soft. Imagine how he'd look at 140 lol. He doesn't have the body to put on over 10 pounds of muscle.

    Pacquiao on the other hand was pretty much constantly drained at the lower weights.
