    **** off mate.

    Step it up?!

    No one wants to get in the ring with him!!

    Kennedy is no mug yet look at the easy Rigo dealt with him!

    Donaire would sooner step up in weight than face El Chacal.

    I don't like his level on dependence on that left. That left is obviously destructive but he really doesn't have a decent right hook or jab.

    His footwork is absolutely beautiful, it's like he glides around the ring. Also I have no idea how he gets so much power on that underarm left he throws!

    with his speed and balance he doesn't need it.

    have you ever seen another fighter that rehearses his punches before he actually throws them?!

    Oh, okay.

    Yeah, fight a higher calibre of opponents. To prove himself that is what he has do, I'm sorry I suggested such a ridiculous notion.

    Well he's ****ed then, isn't he? Resigned to fighting low calibre challengers for the rest of his career. I don't think so. There are bigger fights out there for Rigondeaux, if he has to move up in weight to get them then so be it.

    Why wouldn't Nishioka fight him?

    Teon Kennedy is awful. What's his best win again? Jorge Diaz? A fight against a crude, unskilled novice which he arguable lost (I felt Diaz won myself).

    What are his best assets? Having no defence? Fighting with his chin in the air? A robotic style?

    Kennedy is cack, any decent fringe world level fighter would muller him.

    Sure.

    Nishoika is hanging around waiting for Donaire and is wanting a big money fight, Rigo is a high risk low reward for him at this point in his career.

    Donaire is smart and knows he doesn't stand a chance against him.
