    I voted for Donaire by decision for now. I'm a fan of both guys but Donaire is more proven and I like to see how Rigo does against better competition then Ramos in let's say a ten or twelve rounder.

    Rigo looked great against Ramos, but Ramos is no Donaire. Not even close.

    predictions are always uncertain...get them in the ring and let their fits do the talk.
    i've always said that nobody beats Rigo at 122, and that includes nonito who still has a nut to crack when fighting vazquez jr in a couple of weeks.

    Rigo's style would give Donaire a LOT of problems, Donaire doesn't look good when his opponent doesn't come forward. Not to mention Rigo is slightly faster than him with his hands AND feet. Now the good news for Donaire is that Rigo often gets reckless when he's on the attack and leaves his chin wide open when he throws his left hand and brings it back low. Donaire's counter right hand would be very effective against him.

    donaire wins it for me. i dont care what some of u think about rigondeaux extensive amatuer experience and technical ability however u can see clearly that when hes on the offensive he really is open too much especially when he throws his vaunted left and i hate to say this but sometimes he wings his punches which would spell disaster against donaire's wellknown powerful counter...
