    He said on Friday Night Fights that Donaire will win. Donaire overcame the dreaded Atlas pick curse.

    Atlas really isn't that bad, he's just a known unconventionalist with his picks. He's always trying to go behind the 8 ball and go against the grain and pick the upset... and then show off a little about it. He was pretty spot on about the Bradley fight, too.

    I guess it's true that the Atlas' curse doesn't work on pinoys. O_O

    atlas knows his **** and is a great commentator. that being said, i had donaire at -200 tonight and was thinking twice after i had read that he had picked him to win.

    tough to come back from a ko like that especially after being out on your feet last year aginst valdez.

    montiel, at 32, is probably finished.

    Never thought I'd say this, but props to Atlas for calling it right this time.

    Best example of the "BROKEN CLOCK" theory - Even a broken clock is right 2x a day.
