Donaire: That was the hardest punch I've thrown in my life

[dyu]

He was surprised montiel got back up. (From post fight press conference)
As one poster here said, if montiel was throwing a left hook (instead of the right), he would've been sent directly to the hospital.
That might be an exaggeration but dang, image if montiel was throwing a left hook and his face moving towards the punch.

The Darchinyan KO was still better for me. I saw that fight live on TV and I thought he was just a bum that was there to make Vic look good, then he abused Vic and out of nowhere that lefthook landed.

It was a hard punch.

I heard Montiel had a hairline fracture in the cheekbone area because of it.

You know what I mean. Did you see that fight live or did you hear about it after it happened? I don't man there's just something about seeing some unknown like Pirog and Donaire beat an upcoming talent.

yea if he was throwing a left hook he wouldve been unconcious

it's possible if montiel was throwing the left hook he would've had better defense.
