I'll be just watching at home, but I'll pig my self out with chips and beer. This is the last time I'll be able to watch a fight as my work schedule will change.
:happy Two of the most talented fighters in boxing Two proven winners Great boxing pedigrees Great styles match-up Huge stakes for both: - Donaire: Top 3 p4p fighter status at stake - Rigondeaux: p4p status at stake; questions over his chin answered; big-league money-making opportunities if he wins/poverty if he loses A lot of pride at stake Proven elite professional vs. ATG amateur ... :happy:happy:happy
Can Rigo take a punch? If Donaire cannot take him out, then who can? Can Donaire deal with ATG-level defense and counter-punching going forward? Can Rigo deal with a well-rounded, complete fighter who is a very experienced pro? Can Donaire take a body-punch? Can Rigo keep his concentration and stay active enough for 12 full rounds? Wow! What a fight!:happy
I cannot wait to see this fight; this is the best possible match up in boxing I think now that Mayweather Pacquiao has lost its lustre. It may not be a war but should be an awesome chess match with two of the most skilled boxers in the business. Awesome!
No need to watch it live, necessarily. I'm not saying a stoppage is unlikely but this fight is probably worth watching sober and awake to really appreciate the skills on display.
It'll be a bit too late to have the mates coming round. It's also not the kind of fight my mates would be interested in watching. This will be pure boxing chess match and I don't think they will have the tolerance to sit through it.
True. Over here in the UK, I'll probably send the link to the fight on youtube to my mates tomorrow. I will go to bed early and wake up for it, I think. Don't want to watch it drunk and tired.
I've got my daughter tonight and have to take her to rehearsals early,so gutted about though I am,I'll have to Sky+ it and watch it when she's away. Very tempted to have a big bet on a Rigo decision.Arum won't be looking for an easy Donaire win here when he needs to make the most of Rigo in a short time. Anything can happen here.
Don't have a big bet on Rigo. £30 tops in my view. He could get robbed if it's close... I would hedge with Donaire by stoppage too.
