Cannot believe the extent to which Donaire is the bookies favorite here in the UK. I see it as a 50/50, pickem fight. One of the best punchers in the game against one of the best tehnical boxers. So im betting on Rigo because i think he's being way, way under-rated. Sure, Donaire could bomb him out at any point, but i think Rigo is just as likely to box rings around him for the majority of the fight and win on points.
I've never picked against Donaire but I really like Rigo, if Donaire is going to be great he needs to hurry up, if he wins this John, Gamboa, Mares and comes to his senses about Mikey than he will be what his fans claim. Donaire is much better than Garcia in my view by the way, you kind of insulted your crush.
I never said Donaire was at the same level as Garcia. Donaire is way way better than Garcia ever will be. I am just saying both of their best punches are their huge left hooks. Donaire is learning and getting better as a fighter, sky is the limit for him.
Rigo is a NATURAL southpaw , ¿ did you see the pics of him signing the contract ? . He's a LEFTY . Donaire on the other hand seems to be a natural orthodox ( righty ) who fights in a southpaw stance . He looks uncomfortable while doing it though , switching stances trough out his fights .
