No knock on Donaire but his success is mostly attributed to his size

[johncods]

So this guy looks at the height of a fighter as measurement of how big he is for the weight class. Brilliant.

[Sweet Jesus]

Donaire is huge. No wonder there were rumors of weight problems before the weigh in.

Gamboa-Donaire? Jizz in my pants.

[FilAmTKO]

Juanma will be a tougher fight for Donaire but Nonito should be able to pull off a close victory.

Don't get me wrong, he's the total package, well balanced, skilled, but being so much bigger than his opposition has greatly contributed to his success. People can't deny that, and don't get offended and say I'm tryin' to bash him because I'm not. I never had a problem with P.Will, Caballero or Margarito facing smaller opponents, so why would I have a problem with Donaire doing it? I like Donaire too.

It's obvious though because we've all seen constant threads of Donaire vs. Juanma or Gamboa, even Max brought this to Donaire's attention; on Donaire possibly moving up to FW, so we all know what people are seeing here. Montiel was still a great win and I'm not discrediting his win at all. Just that some like to deny that Donaire's size hasn't played a role.

Against Montiel, Donaire in terms of size, he got only height advantage. Montiel was heavier 8 pounds and had a 1 1/2 reach longer than Donaire.

Montiel won that with his skills and speed. If Gamboa or JuanMa beat Donaire, then we can say they won because either one of them got size over Donaire.

No offense but Nonito isn't winning his bouts on size.

He has phenominal timing/skill inside the ring which allows him to set trap to get these KO's.

If he was bullying fighters around, using inside fighting and just overpower guys, you might have a point. Hell even if he stayed on the outside and jab and used he reach....I could kinda agree with you but he does none of that.

[RubenSonny]

I wouldn't single out Donaire or blame any fighter, day before weigh ins are a sham and the commissions should be ashamed.

[MonsieurGeorges]

the you can say the same of robinson and ali
