Donaire got talent: check KO was impressive: check mismatched opponent: check Not really Donaire or Vargas' fault. Vargas was a last, last minute replacement. And Donaire's promoters need to find him better competition, last minute replacement or not.
The original opponent wasn't that good either. Fights like these do nothing for Donaire. He's a great fighter who continues to spend his time off of Showtime and HBO and fighting on fringe cards on PPV.
That's a bit extreme... Nonito is a very talented kid. He's solid all the way around the board which means his potential is endless.....well....the kid has a lot of potential. He is better than Vic who is pretty darn good even with his limitation in the skill/technique departments.
All you need to say is "scoreboard". He's ranked #6 on Ring Magazine's pound for pound list. Zip it haters!
So did you come here to whine about his opposition or did you come here to breakdown the knockout (read thread title please).
That was a great KO ... I also like to see him staying in rhythm while mounting a brilliant attack. There aren't many guys that can punch like that on the move.
What are I kick you out huh? Is English like your 4th language or something. Anyway, you can stay as long as you want. Just don't whine you get your feelings hurt.
Some of us are doing more than one thing. We don't create threads, sit and wait for someone to tickle our balls because a fighter happens to make his residence in the same area code we have. The majority of us are trying to maintain some small (as minute as possible) level of productivity. Hence we're going to make errors, it's what happens when you're multitasking when you shouldn't be. And what is there to whine about? His opponent was a farce. That's simple ****ing common knowledge bro. Furthermore, I have no problem saying Donaire is a great fighter. In fact I kind of did. That doesn't change the fact that he knocked out an absolute joke of a fighter. I could have an impressive KO if I was fighting a guy who weighed the same as a kid in 8th grade.
Damn, didn't take long for your feelings to get hurt at all. Jeez. Sorry for the mental anguish. Deep breaths. Anyway, back to the topic please. You've gotten all the attention from me you're going to get. Cherish it if you must, but that's all I've got for you.
Your false dichotomy will get you nowhere... Besides we already know how San Francisco fighters give you major wood...
