donaire hits like a heavy handed welterweight and has the style to give bronner trouble I see him at lightwelterweight
As of now, you'd have to pick Broner in this matchup. Donaire is currently campaigning at 122. You simply have no idea how his speed and power would translate at 135. If they didn't translate well, he would get pummeled by Broner.
I know but if he could make the jump bring the speed with the power like PAC I see him causing a big up set
I think Donaire a better fighter p4p, but the weight disparity would be to much and Broner would knock him out easily enough
It's a good fight to make in a year from now maybe two. First Donaire has to beat Rigondeux and then Mares. If he can do that in 2013 then he could fight Broner in 2014 or even late 2013 depending on boxing politics.
It wouldn't be the upset. He would be the favorite. But he shouldn't move up and fight Broner as his first fight as that would be very risky. He should fight someone elite at 130 first and then take on Broner.
It takes Donaire about a year to adjust to a new weight. I think he can make the jump just fine but he wont be fighting Broner until 2014 at the earliest.
It's truly mind boggling how many ******s there are on this forum. If you honestly think at this point Donaire could jump up from 122 to 135 and be favored over Broner, you're simply a bit slow. Broner would be heavily favored to beat Nonito at 135. And he WOULD. Brutally. The size difference between them is ridiculous.
Agree, the jump is absolutely colossal. Not only that but Broner is big for a lightweight, big for a jww too and come fight night, the re-hydration weight inflation would just be comical. At 135, Broner would absolutely murder Donaire, as would Donaire to Broner if they fought at 122. It's almost like asking how would Ortiz do against Ward - just invalid.
