Props for fighting Montiel at 122, but Montiel is going to DESTROY Nonito. Yah, I'm arnold benedict on this one, but Montiel is the truth.
Your trippin. Montiel had a controversial win with Z Gorres and Donaire is a much better fighter. I think Donaire beats Montiel decisively. Can't wait for that match up.
I sure as hell am not going to put him number 2. Realistically, he has a shot at the top 10 for me at least.
I dont think he will be able to take many flush left hooks from Montiel and will ultimately get stopped.
Poonsawat is a tad overrated. So is Donaire. I think Sydo is a good fighter It's A close fight but Donaire speed is going to trouble Sydo however because of donaire low workrate he can get out worked and has shoddy defence.It's a pick em fight.
Nonito is a pretty skiled fighter with a fast handspeed and a good footwork plus the fact that he he uses his head. He's ambidextrous and he can fight in orthodox and southpaw stance which rattles most of his opponents.
He would be in the top 10. I don't know how he got to be as high as he is, I could see him being in the P4P list but not that high. I think if he keeps winning he should rise in the list. To make the list you have to beat champions from multiple weight classes. I'd like to see Donaire fight Rigondeux next year.
I don't think anyone beats Nonito at the lower weights. He's one of the most technically skilled boxers in boxing. On top of that he has knock out power, speed, athleticism. He is every bit as skilled as a Floyd or Manny. The only guy who might be able to beat him is Rigondeux.
I wouldnt have him there but considering Ring had him at no4 when he wasnt fighting anyone of note then he probably will be ranked no2
