    Honestly, if this will be taken against Donaire again I don't know what does he have to do to earn the respect he deserves.

    He's fighting the number 1 guy in his 4th division.

    You mean avoid bringing up Rigondeaux?

    It's alright Knee will be too smart, too slick, too black for Doughnut:yep

    Lol. He's trying to convince himself that fighting Nishioka will hide his blatant DUCK toward Rigo. We won't forget Nonito, we won't forget. :hat:yep

    he's fighting the #1 man at the weight, there's no doubt about it. donaire said that nishioka is the best at the weight while nishioka thinks it's donaire. they can settle this soon.

    I commend Donaire for fighting the legit #1 guy, but I still feel he is ducking Rigondeaux. This post of Donaire's only proves my point.

    Hey I want to see him fight Rigo but have no problems with him facing Nishioka first as long as he indeed fights Rigo later.

    It's not just about Rigo. He's being shitted on for his opposition lately. So, going on to fight the more proven, number one ranked guy in the division kind of dampens that accusation. Good on him.

    I'd like to see Glassmo beat a guy like Nish. Glass barely beat Cordoba and got dropped by him ffs.

    Shame on him for wanting to fight a vastly more established fighter because the vastly less established fighter looked great in his last fight or two? :conf

    LOL...he is absolutely ducking Rigo, and he's trying to talk himself into believing this is OK. I have no problem with the fight, other than he's simply not fighting the guy the fans want to see.

    :lol: Those fans are only going by Rigo's last two fights - against nobodies. Half them don't even know that he's barely had 10 professional fights.

    Now, I like Rigo, and I'd like nothing more for him than to kick Donaire's butt, but let's be real here. He's only just propped up as a challenge to him. Donaire's hardly commiting a crime by ignoring him and choosing to take on the better, more established fighter in the division for the time being.

    same here. I agree with you, but I don't think he plans on fighting Rigo :-(

    Legit move. Can't complain. If he does win against the #1 in division, he won't have reasons not to fight the Cuban.
    I doubt Donaire realizes he sounds like a ***** the way he twitted. Maybe he thought he was taking a shot at Rigo.
