    Foot work yes, but he needs to be very careful because Donaire was beginning to time him with a short 45 degree uppercut when he raises his head low when he stepping out.

    Virgil Hunter's licking his chops.

    Of course Garcia had little do with the loss, but the commute would be more favorable for a new father.

    I hate having to make two scorecards when watching top tier boxing. One real card which hovered around 9-3 maybe 8-4 depending on how you critique rounds, and a second "judges" card that was damn near a draw.

    Just because bull**** decisions happen so often I damn near expect the winner to be robbed.

    Rigo put on a very tactical performance. Wasn't a barnburner but it was pretty good watching him box.

    Golovkin 1-0 on predicting fights. There is no blueprint.

    Rigo's performance was truly masterclass. The fluidity the sense of direction the speed and anticipation.

    I'm happy this wasn't a brainless rock 'em sock 'em slugfest. Much more entertaining IMO.

    If this is all you saw in that fight then stop watching boxing.

    Props to Rigondeaux, he fought a great fight, did enough to win the majority of the rounds by 2-3 clean shots per round. Donaire just couldn't deal with that style, I'm really surprised but that's boxing for you, the superior fighter won and that's all there is to it.

    No one can IMO what the ****. That was otherworldly. Just like when Floyd beat Corrales.


    Nonito admired his work far too much. After a good shot, he'd just stand there, and he'd be cracked in that moment :lol:

    What's all this bs about the fix being in :lol:

    If this was a fix then it's the worst fix in history considering the guy lost on every scorecard.

    Gary Russell at featherweight, maybe. LSC and Yamanaka if they fight smart and simply try to outhustle Chacal. But it's a tough task, 'cause when Rigo gets into a groove, he's virtually impossible to deter.
