    If Donaire wins, I reckon he moves up and fights Garcia/John at featherweight.

    John iN Asia would be HUGE.

    That explains it all, Kellerman promotes fighters who are on HBO because he's a HBO boxing analyst...he wants the $

    He promotes them like there's no tomorrow.

    Well the programme starts at 3 I think so it will be somewhere between 4 and 5 GMT.

    is it in Vegas this fight?

    Nope, this fight is going to be held in the biggest city in the USA which is New York City. This fight is too big for Las Vegas and only New York City can handle it. Fight starts 11pm ET in NYC.
     
  7. You should try an occasional post about boxers not named "Donaire" or "Pacquiao." :good

    My geography is **** but is NY east coast, meaning it's closer to UK?

    Hopefully fight should be on about half 3, 4. When it's in Vegas it's not on until like 5/6.

    Donaire should fight "female horses"

    I agree with him also. The only thing I question is what all of us do. Since Rigo only has 11 fights is he experienced enough to win, and do we know enough about his chin to know if he can take Donaire's punch. I think Donaire has to get him out early, and he will have a chance just because Rigo comes to fight, and when a guy comes to fight he opens himself up to counterpunches.

    It's funny hearing this considering donarie career & opposition is carefully managed.He's fighting Rigo more so because he has no option & Arum said so not because he willingly wanted to.**** he was giving us 1000 excuses on why no to fight him :lol:.

    See I think Max messed up his quote.

    It's the most threatening fight Donaire can have using video evidence.

    On paper, though, he is not. Max is wrong. Age, height, and any breakdown of experience favor Donaire. The only thing "on paper" which favors Rigo is his career long weight advantage over Donaire, who has only been at 122 for 15 or so months.

    But he is, so it doesn't really matter much.

    Until you read tale of the tape. The reality is Donaire is much bigger than most guys he fights. He is fighting guys 1-2 divisions above his opponents. Add that he is very skillful and athletic and you know what happens next.
