Yeah... this looks like the most likely scenario, which begs the question: why is Donaire such a strong favourite, if it's likely to go to the...
Bang on. Bute has a big heart and he is dedicated, disciplined, ambitious (mentally strong), but he doesn't have that nasty, win-at-all costs,...
How do you see the fight going, though? Describe the clash of styles.
How do you guys picture the fight going?
:good So the idea is that Donaire is going to walk him down, beat him up/stop him? That would be something to see, against a fighter like...
They have both been fighting at this weight for a while. I'm not buying it, in practice, especially when you consider the styles match-up.
But when you consider Rigo's amateur experience... He is a great boxer. Are the bookies expecting Donaire to walk Rigo down or what?
why do you guys think the size advantage is so relevant here, given the styles match-up?
Speed kills, Rigo has great defensive footwork, he is a great counterpuncher. I don't think the size advantage is that significant.
Yeah, but people are filling their boots at these odds. I'm surprised the bookies are being so generous, even if we agree Rigo should be the underdog.
Where have you posted your analysis of the fight? What strengths of Donaire's are you most worried about?

If Bute gets destroyed again he's got a credibility problem. A loss would be worse for Bute than for Pascal, who is more proven against very...
I think it's more likely that Pascal clocks Bute really hard on the chin than that Bute catches Pascal's body really well. My view anyway.
