    Wtf:lol: Even Donaire admitted to getting the shi t beat out of him. Post fight pics looked like Walters had fought Donair with
    a pair of meat cleavers.

    The only mistake Donaire made was fight the most dangerous opponent available. Unlike you know who. Like I said, Donaire is a warrior for taking that fight and fighting not clinching or running lol. NO FEAR! KO or be KO'ED.

    :rofl

    He fought the only way he could against someone like Walters. He tried to box but obviously failed due to the size, height and reach difference so he decided to go power for power. Walters is simply better than him.

    Donaire got beat up, and bad. He looked physically tried and worn out at the end of the 5th round. His face looked worse than it's ever been. Donaire caught him at the end of round 2 but walters recovered well. I just think walters is at another level than donaire at featherweight.

    He came up with '' he was too big for me'' as an excuse

    No he did the only thing he could have done. Walters was just too big and too hungry for him.

    Hard to do when your opponent has a huge reach advantage over you and has a good jab and you haven't fought like that in years since Donaire fell in love with his power.:deal

    Sounds like why Mayweather ducked Margarito.

    He said Walters was too big and he's moving down in weight... he blamed the weight class, in a very respectful manner.

    If he did, and boxed smart, he probably could've won. But I guess going out on your shield is better than winning. He did well in the beginning but didn't adjust to Walter's adjustments.

    He ducked a guy who his haters say is the style he likes fighting the most they say he only fights plodders and people with no speed. Margo is the standard for that. You haters can't have it both ways.

    I think he should've weaved his way in, cut the ring and threw to the body, consistently.

    Donaire fought very well for the first two and a half rounds. There was a distinct point in the third when he just started marching forward and, even though I'd a sunk a few by then, I barked at the TV for him to make a little space.

    In the next moment a Walter's uppercut decked him.

    From then on his tactics appeared ropey as the challenger (credit to him) imposed himself. Nonito started overcooking his power shots when a couple of range finders were in order.

    There was probably no escape against such a strong foe over twelve. Had the wobbles in round two occurred earlier however...maybe things would have been different...
