    Inside every Filipino there's a slick Black American dying to get out.

    thank God. He's a good fighter, but he started to fight like a dumbass in his last 3 fights

    Not sure what exactly he means by that, but it's probably a good sign.
     
  5. Nonito would never be on SOG's level.

    but i'd suggest that he ditches Garcia as a trainer.

    Donaire vs Nishioka, should be an interesting fight.

    Donaire in the Montiel and Darchinyan fights would win but recently he hasn't performed at that well in his fights, so it could be a good fight.

    Makes it easier when your opponent has the heart of a ****ing dung beetle though. Dawson was terrible tbh.
     
  8. probably means he should stop trying to put on a show and just win!

    Ward and Donaire have been friends since they were both younger. They trained at the same gym. So... what Donaire means is he is going back to what made him a champion, his skills, and won't be so dependent on getting or looking for the KO to impress people who are obsessed with it. Watch this interview...

    1-2 tune-up fights, then Donaire-Rigo, make it happen

    He is fighting the number 1 in the division next so no tune ups, Rigondeaux fight should hopefully happen after though.

    :bbb

    Makes sense! He's been uncomfortable when made to lead, picking his punches instead of leaping into attempted KO shots will serve him better.

    The K.O's stopped coming when he stepped up in competition. Fought a guy taller than him for once and could not hurt him.

    hmmm.......

    you imply that Vic and Montiel are bums? (both top 10 p4p ranked at one time or another)

    Donaire does great things when he sets his punches with his jab. He should try to at least do this in his next fight. He'll never be slick black Irish.
