Even if you think Rigo schooled Donaire...

    To deny that Donaire could very well beat him in a rematch, in fact, knock him out cold is wrong imo. You could see that it just takes some adjustments from Donaire, a little more aggression for example. Yes, yes, Rigo had something to do with it, but not everything. Donaire had lowered his output dramatically in his last fights, against lesser opposition than Rigo. I believe he has a great chance to KO Rigo, and if he comes back hungry from the loss, he may turn it up in a rematch. Throughout the fight, it just looked like Rigo was doing fine but at any minute he could be out cold. I believe Donaire has more potential, he didn't fight as his best. On the other hand, I think that's all there's to Rigo.

    I disagree. I dont think Donaire has advanced his boxing skills in the last few years like he should have so he didnt know how to attack Rigo. Its not going to change. He can definitely get more aggressive but all that will do is make him get hurt, bad

    Donaire mentally folded early on. That's what counter punching does to exciting labeled fighters like Donaire. Put Donaire back with Arce and watch him be back better than ever, praising god for healing his shoulder.

    It may sound crazy, but we may have already seen the best of Donaire. The guy will be almost 31 the next time he enters the ring. He relies heavily on his speed and power, he's injury prone, and he's having a lot of problems making weight. He'll be at 130 pretty soon. Not many guys who are over 30, who have to move up multiple weight classes because the inability to make weight, and who rely heavily on physical attributes excel. Pacquiao is a notable exception.its not the norm though. Donaire is reaching the end of his physical peak, and he'll be fighting guys closer to his size.

    If donaire increases his output like you said, he gets stopped by Rigo.

    This, Donaire was scared of Rigos power, if he got to aggressive his face would be even more wrecked.

    Anybody with the kind of skills these guys have can do the same thing what Rigo did and stink the place up :lol:. Just jab, pick your punches and run the whole fight, let the other guy follow you and pop him here and there :lol:.

    Donaire needs to work on a boxing and stop loading up on one shot . Rigo is bad style matchup for him.

    I dont normally respond to people of significantly lower intellect... But my god. You must be the holy grail of all idiots. How have you managed to live thus far without choking to death on your own fist? Amazing
