    Burnett is domestic level. That is why he ducked Tete and Rodriguez prior to there even being a WBSS at 118. Had he been world class, he would of had no problem taking on world class opposition.

    I don't feel very good about Donaire's chances. I definitely do not think he has any chance of winning a decision.

    But I hope Donaire keeps making my predictions incorrect.

    Donaire wins. Tete is a fraud/hypejob, I had Aloyan 1 point up, so Tete should have 4 losses.
    I fully expect a Donaire win.

    I give Donaire a bit more of a chance the more I think about it, but still favor Tete. Can't really go off of how Tete looked in the Aloyan fight. Bouts between two southpaws who can both box a bit usually end up stinkers. I give Donaire a bit more of a shot due to the heart and determination he was showing. He was literally looking like he was about to tear Burnett a new arsehole as the bout progressed. He knew after the first couple minutes that Burnett couldn't crack an egg though. He'll have to be more wary of Tete's power. If Donaire can take it, he can win the inside fight in my opinion. I wouldn't be surprised as a matter of fact, if he catches Tete being lazy in the clinch waiting for the ref's break, like he caught Rigondeaux in their fight. Donaire is vulnerable to the uppercut though, and Tete has a nice one. I think the odds will end up being much closer, the closer the fight gets.

    I want Donnaire to win this. Donnaire v Inoue would be absolutely massive in Asia and help to globalise boxing, Tete is a good boxer but boring AF and living off the back of his 16 second KO.

    Donaire knocks him out! Tete has been KO'd by a nobody before, he won't be able to handle Donaires power.

    I had to google him LOL. Funnily enough Donaire knocked that guy out.
    Tete got losses also to Roberto Domingo Sosa, and Juan Alberto Rosas.
    It's funny how his fans never mention these losses, and why does he never try to avenge them.

    That nobody just got a decision over a young lion not too long ago, and also gave a prime Donaire a tough go before being stopped by a cut. No shame in a green 5'9 kid boiling down to 112 and getting stopped by Mthlane. This isn't that Tete.

    Donaire didn't knock Mthlane out. It was stopped due to a cut. Mthlane actual won some rounds and had begun to touch a prime Donaire up a bit. Keep boxrecing though.

    In the fight against the Argentinian, Tete was robbed. I heard he was jobbed in the other fight as well.

    Tete is like the midget version of Indogno .I don't rate him at all. He's been KO'd before, I bet he's packing Glass.

    The 3 guys he's lost to don't have impressive records at all, it's embarrassing if he's even having close fights with these guys.
    He can't have been robbed in all three! lol maybe he's just you know... not that good, I mean let's be honest he looked very mediocre against Aloyan who's only had a few pro fights and is still adapting to the pro game,it was a close fight I had Aloyan winning by 1 point. What's Tete's best win- Paul Butler! :lol: He has no good wins.
    I think Tete is an average fighter, And I got both Donaire and Inoue knocking him spark out.

    Tetez aggressive style will be his demise. I think Donaire left hooks his way into the finals!

    You seem to have something against the man. You don't seem very knowledgeable about his career, outside of looking at boxrec. We will see how it plays out. Tete should be favored, but that is why they fight the fights.
