    I can't see Nonito losing to Coral Grimes. So uh, Nonito decision or TKO.

    Donaire's best days are behind him but this does have the making of an exciting fight while it lasts. I hope Frampton moves up to fight Lomachenko. He kinda of dodged Rigondeaux and I don't think Santa Cruz 3 is happening soon. But this is a fun fight here.

    Nonito is far enough gone for Frampie to win with home advantage.
    Frampton close UD.

    Very intelligently played by Team Jackal. Donaire is shot enough to be easy work but still has enough of his emeritus shine to seem a big name win.

    You've written Nonito off? Frampton looked bad last time out. This is the highest profile fight (despite Montiel being a fellow P4P entrant) that Nonito has ever been a part of... May drive him to dig deep and pull off one last scintillating performance.

    Agreed it should be an entertaining fight if not a potential banana skin based on Carls last performance. Fighting Loma would not be a good idea imo.

    Donaire doesn't belong at Featherweight, didn't the Walters match teach him anything, Frampton wins by late TKO or close UD.

    Beating a shopworn Donaire, won't make the Cowardly Lion of Belfast elite.

    seems like Donaire wants that UK payday money at the cost of getting iced lol

    at this point, he's only fighting for money.

    Donaire may KO Frampton. Frampton is so over rated. If Donaire is in shape, and focused, he administers a beating.

    Donaire is sliding sure but its still a decent win. Kinda like Frochy beating Taylor back in the day...

    I don't disagree Donaire KO is possible imo. How is Frampton over rated though? He avoided Rigo but I don't see how that constitutes being over rated.

    Just curious as to your reasoning?
