    I would initially assume that Bradley-Alexander is the better product for HBO than Montiel-Donaire, hence the reason why HBO almost never does bantamweights. Yet, in this case, it would seem that Montiel-Donaire has a ton of potential and could produce even more fireworks. Or maybe I'm way off. Thoughts?

    The 2 fights do not even compare.

    This fight will be a war no questions asked. Also the Jones-Karass fight will be a hell of an opening.

    I always thought they would deliver better, besides Tim and Devon didn't raise the bar too high so it will very likely surpass it. I hope Montiel wins, but I think Donaire takes this fight by UD.

    Yes, both Montiel and Donaire are superior fighters to Bradley and Alexander and both will do more to make it exciting than Alexander did.

    Montiel vs Donaire will be a war, Donaire is extremely likable he should be marketed more, I am pulling for Montiel. I cant see this fight disappointing not one bit.

    donaire and montiel should be in the pound for pound rankings. but they don't received the same amount of hype because they fight in the lower weights. but there should be no doubt, they are elite level fighters whereas bradley is just a very good one and Alexander is just good.

    We've got two guys with the skill and power in both fists. Somebody may get blown out but believe it will be heavy while it lasts.

    We will have a clear winner in this fight. Donaire brings too much to the table in this one. He will move up and challenge mares after this one.

    mOntiel & Donaire were both more accomplished and more skillfull than Bradley & Devon. And botn men at least got attention of each ethnic countries.

    Bradley got none of those even in his own hometown. Devon has at St louis but I guess it's gone now after his quit job!

    one thing for sure,, you'll enjot the Montiel-Donaire fight!! tHey're both warriors!

    If this fight isn't a FOTY candidate, it'll only be because someone's chin let them down. This is gonna be good!

    Then it sucks that this fight is only on HBO BAD while the other is on HBO World Championship Boxing. HBO uses BAD to feature up and coming fighters while WCB is for established champs. Its the other way around for this one, Montiel and Donaire, two established champs are gonna be on BAD while Alexander, a recently crowned champ is on WCB
