    Good fight, I'd take LSC probably at this point in a close-ish decision type win again based on activity.

    LSC by wide decision. Donaire would be swinging and missing all night.

    Remember, Donaire eats pressure fighters for breakfast. He wants and thrives when his opponent marches forward throwing leather... Weight and size would ultimately be tough to overcome for Donaire, however. I would definitely pick the fight to go the distance with likely controversy on a decision that has fans split down the middle.

    Nonito wont ever again venture above 122. He is not big enough.

    Donaire KO mid rounds i reckon.... Leo is not the biggest 122'r out there.. I reckon Donaire finds that chin a little to easily for me. Would be a similar fight to the walters fight i think and Leo aint no Walters !!

    Also a lot of people forget that Donaire had Walters seriously hurt at one point and Walters was lucky it was early in the fight and was able to recover during rounds

    :deal He found his size ceiling. Once his physical advantages left.

    3-4 years ago I would have picked Donaire

    but post-Rigo Nonito is shot, done, finished, etc. He's yesterday news. LSC would stop him atm. Rigo ruined Donaire almost as bad as Chavez Jr ruined Maravilla

    Donaire and Mares at 122 would be fun.

    Walters - LSC is the fight to make.

    However, if Donaire were to fight LSC, we'd be in for a classic.
