    Theres actually quite a few fights I am looking forward to next month, didnt realise there were that many. None SUPER huge besides the Cotto and Martinez fights (yes I know the cotto fight isnt huge but to me its two of my fav fighters all time so its big even if Mayorga is past it) but theres a lot of smaller fights that have my interest sparked for sure. Cant wait for next month.

    :yikes

    Wow.... that seems insanely low for two fighters of their calibre, and a fight of this importance.... :huh:-(

    Interesting stuff man, thanks.

    Yea, eye popping stuff. I didn't think Donaire would be getting 100 K more, and I would have thought both fighters would be getting at or at least near 1 mil.

    And it is a shame considering the kind of money Andre Berto makes fighting top 20 fighters and these two fighters top of their division and they aren't making much.

    Man.. I dont hope Donaire is biting more off than he can chew with this one.. Montiel looks ready and confident

    I know. I am gettingthe pre fight jitters and also doubting my pick :lol: Donaire just needs to be smart.... use his skills, and hopefully in that weigh in Montiel is wearing shoes while Donaire is not because I was counting on a bit more height advantage.

    Man, I just hope its a good fight tomorrow, hope both guys do well and may the best man win.
