    Donaire is as slick as they get. He has a tough fight against the defensive wizard they call Rigondeaux.

    Not really. He's more of a stalker type, like a Marquez or a Trinidad.

    It's completely hypothetical as it's a physiological impossibilty.

    highly athletic and naturally gifted. those genetics contribute to having slickness. but as far as the fundamentals to complete the slick package, he don't got them.

    he has his slick moments, but he's no wizard or technician.

    Totally false, Donaire is a great technical boxer, it's just overshadowed because his left hook is humongous.

    Donaire is pretty slick. Some people just don't want to admit it.

    No way,he tries to be slick here & there but he isnt that kind of fighter. He is not a pure boxer, more of a slugger with technique & great speed.

    His Flash Step is a thing of beauty, very slick.

    Your dad has good taste haha. The Mexican style can make it look easy too. Especially if they are technical.

    For sure. Since he's not black, black people wont say he is slick.

    Donaire has Spanish blood in him.
