if Donaire fights Rigondeaux or Gamboa it will be the end for him ...

  1. Maybe I'm overestimating him but I definitely think he is one of the few guys who can match speed with Rigo.

    That's true but what's speed without boxing skills? Didn't help Donaire against Rigo, it doesn't help Khan.
    I like Russell jr. but he hasn't fought anyone as a pro yet, and unlike Rigo he didn't have the world beating amateur career. He got beaten by the Russian Vodopyanov 16-6 at the 2007 worlds, in 2009 Vodopyanov lost to Lomachenko 12-1. I know people don't give much weight to amateur achievements but I mention it to show just how far off elite level he was as an amateur. Maybe he would've done well at the olympics without his weight issue, we'll never know. So he has a lot to prove in the pro game before I'd consider him anywhere near the level of a Rigondeaux.

    I guess your post was the one with no logic. This fan obviously knew what he was talking about.
