    Some fighters are just comfortable by not being too textbook.

    Yeah, I think he's top shelf too. Very impressive all around.

    As a matter of fact he looked even better than when he took out Darchinyan.

    It is hard to fight an opponent who has power in both hands. Now, if that fighter could box pretty well, that is doubly difficult.

    Very impressive showing against Maldonado and what is amazing is that he is only 24 years old, but his ring savvy is very mature. In the last round, he did not rush to KO his opponent put picked his spots to unleash his punches. That speaks maturity.

    I agree he is a hell of a fighter, I would like to see him move up and fight Mijares. The winner would be a top 8 p4p fighter in my book. :happy

    Donaire whips maldonado's ass like it was the passion of christ, mijares draws only to maldonado. The result? Donaire destroys mijares..:!:
