    Seems a strange thing to say when the fight went like it did, but props to Donaire for his resilience. He took a number of shots that would've flat out sparked most fighters and was still coherent 30 seconds after the end of the fight.

    Giving Inoue Cleto-Reyes gloves is like letting him go into the fight with a bat.

    Unbelievable how Donaire survived that Moloney killshot.

    Butler might not make it out of the first round against Inoue.

    Butler shits his pants during the ring walk and leaves the arena.

    That left me a little sad, watching Donaire walking away clearly upset but still having the class to help someone else up when they'd fallen. Time had brought him down to the same human level as so many of Inoue's other opponents. So we didn't get another classic, but hopefully Inoue gets the plaudits he deserves. He's a truly devastating boxer.

    I'm sure some would pick Fulton to beat Inoue just because he slick. Good fighter, nothing against him, but sorry if you don't think Inoue posseses the speed, accuracy and variety to touch that chin you're not only a biased moron who DKSAB but you're very likely blind. Often I won't just automatically pick the guy coming up in weight to beat one of the top fighters in a division above theirs, especially if they've already come up multiple divisions already, but Inoue is special and that murderous two fisted power, accuracy, precision, speed, skill and punch selection and variety is absolutely lethal.

    Inoue is an absolute stud! Felt sorry for Donaire because he is such a likeable fellow as is his wife Rachel but he has had a great career. P4P no one hits as hard as Tank and Inoue.

    The last time I saw Donaire's fight, he dominated his opponent in masterclass performance.

    Here today, he is just outclassed. Inoue is faster, stronger and much better offensively and defensively.

    Inoue is a generational rare talent.

    The saddest moment for me was seeing Nonito's leg buckle.
