    Eddie says he talking to donaires guys about getting him over here to fight selby. Good fight hey I think selby could win this and announce hisself big time. Agree?

    No. Donaire wins handily. And I rate Selby a lot.

    They aren't even near the same level, Donaire very comfortably and I like Selby.

    I think Selby will do well, someone I rate highly. Would be a great fight I hope it happens.

    Not going to happen, Donaire is fighting for the WBA belt in a bit, if he wins HBO will want him vs Mares, Gradovich, Russell Lomochenko winner ect, he would get ridiculed for fighting an unknow guy with no belt. Selby is good but Donaire is different level and nothing in it for Nonito to fight Lee, Selby brings nothing to the table.

    Hearn is not talking to forum users/hardcore fans when he comes out with this rubbish

    I like Selby too. Donaire would crucify him.

    So who is he talking to then? The casual fan have never even heard of Donaire, let alone Selby. And they never will hear of either of them.

    IMO he's talking to 'loose' boxing followers/ casual sports fans/darts fans who will be impressed to hear that an elite fighter is supposedly coming over to fight one of his lads....doesn't matter if they know who he's talking about IMO...Hearn knows WE know he's talking out if his arse..he admits to it as much in some of his interviews with kuggan - was watching one the day and it was around the time After Froch / Kessler 2 when he was talking up a 3 fight and saying the 'fans' wanted to see that it instead of a Ward rematch...to his credit kuggan pressed him on it and Hearn said something along the lines of ''sports fans wanted to see Kessler again, and I'm not talking about to the forum users and hardcore favs who are asking for Ward etc'

    Although selby would be a big underdog I think it could be a good fight I hope they can set it up

    Selby at the moment is fringe world class, Donaire is the real deal, If that fight happened soon I would be shocked if Selby won
