    Looked like something ripped off a bone. Pretty bad since they had to carry him out in a stretcher.

    Hopefully it's not spinal.

    A Nonito shot to the body unperceived by the naked eye, they don't call him the flash for nothing.

    I ride with Taylor all the way, but this Martin seems like a good fella.

    i remember very well how he did vs framps. But this was his first fight back at 118lbs, an 8lb loss of weight is mahusive at these lower weights. you gotta factor this, thats what ive done. I mean Donaire is now got a few months to get strong at the weight and tete is obviously weight drained at his dimensions. Donaire will probably Knock him out.

    I still sometimes forget myself how against I was him moving up to 122 as quickly as he did.

    EDIT: ...because of how well he did at 122 so quickly. It was like I was proven wrong. But 126 was clearly going to be bad news, I think everyone knew that.

    Gotta remember that Donaire looked flabby at 122, that weight he lost wasn't muscle...

    If he beats Nonito in the finals it's not impressive to me. Donaire is a shell of his former self. This guy lost motivation for boxing after Rigo. Sure he might have gotten some of it back but he's not the same physical monster.

    Yes, I completely agree. I dont know if he's sharper, but I felt he was sharper. I would have loved to watch the full fight just to make it sure. Plus, he surprised me, I came ready to watch a far worse donaire, I'm glad I was wrong.
