There is nothing you can do when you are in the ring with a man who is bigger who takes a great shot. You just out point him, and live to impress another day. Donaire won, and that's all that matters.
EXACTLY! Then you shouldn`t have compared Donaire`s win and Arce`s win. We have a similar opinion, he doesn`t seem strong because he failed to KO his opponent. He choose to box (ran if you wanna call it) and trade punches. But, I have to take into consideration that his opponent, Conception, came in 4pounds overweight. That means that he had some strength advantages over Donaire. I will give Donaire credit for beating his opponent cleverly but I`m not that impressed. Donaire needs to improve in his punching power. :bbb He will be a force to reckon with.
Donaire / Concepcion - The weight made a whole lot of difference. Think about Castillo/Corrales 2 compared to 1. Big difference in those fights. Donaire held his own against the bigger man, I'll give him that. Donaire had to sacrifice to make the weight while concepcion did not. Concepcion must have felt alot stronger having not to dehydrate at all.
His timing sucked, he didn't box, threw 1 punch at a time, jab?, defense sucked, speed diminshed etc.... I rated this kid really fricken high to have him struggle with this c class, non weight making bum. Same goes for Peterson. From where I was sitting, I was thinking a draw would be appropriate.
I thought he fought great. Yeah, he got hit a couple of times, but, he demonstrated a solid chin. This is the fight game. U are gonna get hit from time to time. U can not avoid it. He showed me that he can box as well as bang. People forget that Concepcion is a tough sob. He knocked out AJ Banal who is a very good fighter.
I'm getting the feeling that some guys are posting about a fight they only read about and never saw lol...
This I agree. Specially the ones who's saying Bernabe INTENTIONALY hit Luevano before the bell. If they were watching it, The bell sounded when Bernabe was already cocking his fist. And the ref didn't bother to stop nor get near them when he heard the 10 second warning.
Nope... Donaire weighed 122 while El Torito weighed 131 !! See they maintained the weight differential... And you can see El Torito is stronger partially because he didn't try to make weight at the weigh-in... .
