    Made a large play on the under and a bit on Rigo by decision, just incase something weird goes down. Never know :bbb

    Why not?

    We can have it at 126 as well, god knows Donaire weighs that much on fight night.

    Has a hard time creating offense for himself, largely relies on one or two big punches a round and is inactive a lot of the time, especially over the 2nd half of fights if he can't get a quick KO. Almost like he gets a bit bored.

    Gomez is a great trapsetter and had a great chin, I think he'd hit Donaire a ton and leave Nonito swinging at air more often than not, taking a decision.

    Actually chin is one of Gomez's least impressive assets.

    It's not bad, obviously, but I wouldn't call it great.

    Right, so how many

    "where should Donaire\Rigondeux rank all-time NOW!!!"

    "does this win make Donaire\Rigondeaux one of the greatest ever"

    type threads will pop up after the fight.The time draws close.

    In classic that is, i wouldn't expect anyone to be able to guess the amount on the general:yep


    I'm rooting for Rigondeaux even though i've not been overly impressed with much by him yet as a pro, he's a good fighter, but looks like there is something missing as far as carrying on being a special amatuer to pro.He's kalule'esque though so that's enough.

    He soaked some hellacious shots in his career. Certainly good enough not to be one punched which is IMO Donaire's only chance.

    Question is would he make 122 in Bazooka's era?

    A fighter must show much more than Montiel/Darch KO before we can assume he can stop prime Gomez with one punch.

    Gomez would box his head off.
