who thinks Nonitos boxing skills are overrated and wouldnt be surprised if Nishioka outboxed and outclassed Nonito?
Man he has skills but lately has fell in love with his power and if he keeps that up it will be his downfall..would love to see him put his punches together more and stop throwing 1 punch at a time
The guy is a multi-weight champion, how is he overrated? He is one of p4p best and has beaten great competition with skills for most of his career.
been beating up little men most of his career. his KO power would bail him out. it's not so easy in this division. and now he's fighting guys his size, it's showing just how truly skilled he is. his last three fights were cringeworthy and akward af. he's trying too hard and lacks certain fundamentals that elites SHOULD have. he truly is "the flash". Rigondeaux is a nightmare for him and would humiliate him badly. Nonito is imitating what Rigondeaux is truly all about.
I believe Nishioka has a solid chance of winning, but yeah, I'd be very shocked if he outclassed Donaire.
I watched a few of Nishioka's fights last night. Granted I haven't seen many but from what I've gathered he appears susceptible to the left hook which just so happens to be ND's money punch. Nishioka does place good body shots and I don't think anyone's really tested ND's body. I doubt he can hurt Donaire though. I think ND can and will be outboxed but it won't be this weekend. Rooting for the Japanese though.
