Both are big punchers and both confident of the ko.

Hell yeah it will be a war.

Hell yeah it will be a war.

I just don't know about Montiel, he has the credentials but I don't know if he possesses the physical tools to deal with Donaire.

It will be interesting though and Donaire needs to make sure he keeps it tight or he could get caught with a big punch and that is often all it takes against a real world class guy.



It is good to see them getting swarmed by media though this fight does deserve attention and the winner certainly deserves real accolades

man, i'm torn, being a fan of both, i dont know who to root for as i don't want either guy to lose.

as long as this fight is exciting and neither guy has their stock go down after this fight will it be a victory for a fan such as myself.

i think both guys are great for the sport and bring a high level of professionalism to the game that shines bright on the younger generations to come, leading by example, which is extremely important..........


i'm picking this fight to potentially be FOTY.................

There will be no war. They are both technical speedy counter-punchers who never fight in the pocket or on the inside. They both like to fight at a distance so how can this be war? They both don't really like to lead so I think both will be uncomfortable in there. Still, I like this fight because both can end it with one punch.

That's very true. I've seen Montiel get caught early, but either guy could easily go from one shot- most likely a counter of some sort.

I like Donaire in this one myself but won't mind being proven wrong.
