    I pick Donaire-Montiel.

    With Pacquiao-Hatton, I felt so much pity for Ricky, he just wasn't in the same class as Pac. He was just waiting to get KTFO.

    With Donaire-Montiel, I was just amazed at both fighters; at Donaire for his power, timing, skill and at Montiel for his toughness. Just wow!

    I wasn't that freaked out about that KO. Boxers getting knocked unconscious is more commonly seen that boxers showing momentary convulsions.

    Absolute bull ****... Montiel outweighed Donaire on the night, was still in my opinion in the prime of his career and had never been knocked out. Montiel was actually looking very sharp in the 2nd round as well and I felt that he had found his rhythm before Donaire absolutely smashed him with that hook. I can't see how anyone predicted that kind of KO win for Donaire.

    Montiel had a massive weight advantage and when in the ring the size difference was nothing like it was thought to be. Donaire was the favorite but Montiel def had a chance to win and was top p4p fighter and his power is also comparable to Doanire.

    A KO like that was not to be expected. Possible yes but it was also possible for Montiel to do the same but have great KO power but it was not expected and certainly not that early.

    Pac KO Hatton, Hatton couldn't even move after that. Props to Montiel for somehow getting back on his feet

    What happen at the fight? I thought I heard some booing from the Montiel fans during Nonito's intro

    My bad, I thought it was Donaire who out-weighed Montiel. Regardless, Donaire is bigger in height and reach, and I've always regarded him as the bigger puncher. A lot of people here on ESB predicted a KO for Donaire, and I, personally, was worried for Montiel going into this fight....and guess what, it turns out that I had good reasons to be!

    My question is what hurts more. Temple or the chin? I would thought the temple would be more debilatating. But Hatton was out cold. Montiel was out for a cuple of seconds the got up but he was daize.
