that's what it is i think...people need to calm the **** down..i know he isn't fighting the best guy in the division right now, but the year isn't over yet. if he leaves 122 without fighting rigondeaux, mares and/or nishioka then we can all **** talk on him and call him the biggest coward in the sport of boxing..until then let's just see how everything plays out. i feel he will fight nishioka after mathebula because he did want to fight him in the beginning, but nishioka declined because he wasn't looking to fight until late 2012..and imo a nishioka fight would be better than a rigo fight atm. -
exactly...some people just hyping rigo because they think he can beat donaire and they already made up their minds that donaire will never fight him. it's just an assumption but they're already hating on donaire which is kinda ******. i mean, that fight could happen but it doesn't have to be donaire's next fight. even if donaire-nishioka happens next, these haters will still bring up rigo...watch.Originally posted by SoggyLungs View PostComment

Donaire isn't even telling his opponents that they have to do OST. To fail a basic test you got to be dumb.Comment

I can respect Donaire's willingness and balls to go forward with a fight that could potentially be dangerous for him but I find his stance a little ******. Fighters should be NOT stepping in the ring with people who have cheated, as that sends a wrong message to the fans as well as the boxers themselves.
The whole point of taking the drug tests is to separate the cheaters from the clean fighters, resulting in (hopefully) severe punishments for the dirty guys. Not rewards by continuing to fight and maybe even getting a pay day out of it.Comment

He's like 30 years old. He should only be fighting big name fighters at this point.
JCC JR is 4 years younger and he's fighting Sergio. What is Nonito waiting for?Comment

well when donaire was 24 and only on his 18th or 19th pro fight he knocked out darchinyan...and just last year he knocked out montiel. like i said in an earlier post the year isn't over yet..donaire is still in his prime and has only had 29 pro fights and hasn't been in much wars..so eventhough he's reaching 30 he still has a lot of fight left in him unlike someone like pacquiao who has about 60 pro fights, has been in many wars and is 33. i could definitely see donaire still competing at a high level even in his mid 30s and possibly late 30s like marquez and sergio.Originally posted by mushahadeen View PostComment

Why would you push for extra more in-depth drug testing if you really don't care whether your opponents are cheating or not and are willing to face them regardless? His statements really don't make any sense at all, but I give him credit for doing more extensive drug testing even though he doesn't seem to be endorsing it much. You want to do extra testing, but you don't care if your opponents don't do that same extra testing? Why would you want to put yourself at a disadvantage like that? Like I said before, it doesn't make sense but I give him credit for wanting to step up to the plate and show that he's clean. I must admit, I had my doubts.Last edited by JK1700; 06-29-2012, 11:44 AM.Comment

big names like who? rigo with 10fights? mares is a bigger name but that's probably the next fight or so. give the man a break he just stepped into the division last fight and that was against a former division champ. rigo had just got a belt when nonito fought in his division.Originally posted by mushahadeen View Post
speaking of big names, arce is the biggest in that division, you want that fight?Comment

Donaire's integrity and attitude defies any boxing logic, which is almost universally about getting leverage at any cost. WAR NONITO.Comment
