    I didn't think Rigo would be able to be the general in there
    for so long and thought Donaire would adapt to whatever
    Rigo did. However, the cuban showed me that his poise,
    balance and strong mind is 2nd to none in this sport. I'm
    elevating him to #3 on my p4p list right behind Mayweather
    and Ward.

    Donaire was not prepared at all. He under-estimated the skills of Rigo. Boxing is an art and Rigo showed it all tonight. He had masterful footwork while Donaire was walking around flat footed getting timed.

    Great post, Rigo should be P4P top 3 anytime now.

    The Cubans have arrived.

    Thanks for not making some crass comment about how
    could I pick donaire the hype job. Seeing your locale
    is Miami I can only assume you're a cuban american?
    Congrats, and btw i always thought rigo was better than
    gamboa whom i'm still impressed with. Very frustrated w/
    his stagnate career but still impressed.

    I was only able to give Nonito the 10th round, that is it. Rigondeaux is a true Master!!!!

    No prob my friend. Boxing is boxing and people always get too " emotional " picking their guy. Most guys here never gave Rigondeaux any chance and I was amazed at that but tonight Cuban boxing has been elevated to a whole new level. I am also frustrated with Gamboa's inactivity, the guy also has mad talent.

    At least you recognize you made the wrong pick and not making excuses like others. So props to you.

    Milpitas is Rachel, she's giving Nonito the second ass whipping of the night.
