    I dunno what you ****s are talking about. Rigo didn't look scared at all, homeboy was cool as a cucumber. Nonito was the one exhibiting nervous behavior. This is coming from a Donaire fan.

    That said, nobody ever wins staredowns or weigh-ins and they don't really matter.

    Nah, him folding his arms like that shows that he was uncomfortable.

    Not that it has to mean anything on fight night, though...

    I don't like Donaire at all.

    So far from what I seen when they're together is Rigo has the uncomfortable body language

    Rigo looked abit shook. Also that size disadvantage is not going to help rigo come fight time. My feeling for this fight is that if all those other guys who ran the whole fight against donaire can survive then i'm sure rigo can do that too.

    lewis beat tyson, because tyson was out of shape and lewis just the better boxer.

    holyfield beat tyson, because tyson was out of prime and evander was in tremendous shape and technicly the better boxer.

    douglus beat tyson when tyson was ****ing around with prostitutes and giving a **** about training.

    quit that bs with stare downs. prime tyson beat everybody up because he trained like a man possessed by a demon. when he quit training and his prime was gone he began to lose, that simple.

    Good read. I thought the same thing when I saw him fold his arms.

    Rigo's body language has been a bit off for the last few months. Not making eye contact. Crossing arms during a stare-down really makes me question whether he is ready for this fight.

    He's talented, but he may be lacking some confidence for this fight. That can affect the way he fights, whether he's going to be aggressive or not. I have a very strong feeling he'll fight backing up the whole fight. And if he's losing the fight, he'll fight to last the distance so he won't get KO'ed.

    I don't think Rigo have the confidence to win this fight.

    Tyson was more primed than Evander when they fought. he has no excuse for the Douglas fight so stop making them excuses for him he got his ass whipped because Douglas fought him....

    out of shape un focused thats your bad.

    Nonito wanted a reaction out of Rigo and didn't get one. The only problem is Rigo IGNORED him, the way a kid would try to ignore a bully

    Rigondeaux is intimidated by Donaire; this much should be clear by now.

    You can be intimidated by someone and still kick their ass, though. Guess we'll see.

    I think Donaire was a little bothered by Rigo's rock solid attitude.
