I can say Donaire can go up to 154 and still not a PPV attraction, you know exactly what I mean. Don't act ******, but if you're not acting, then i'll let you slide.
What is known is the smaller weight classes historically are not that popular, and that is proven by the fact HBO has never had a PPV headlined by a 122 pounder or smaller.

Donaire would be favored easily against Mares or Rigo.
And how can Rigo be considered a step up when his best opponent to date is Ramos? So you rank Rigo so highly based on what, all of the top opposition he's faced? Double standards.
Of course Canelo could fight Victor Ortiz and it would be a massive step up for him considering he's fought no one of note yet despite being a pro for 7 years.

As for Vazquez remember that was Donaires first fight in the division. Most of the time when a guy moves up in weight you don't automatically fight the #1 guy in the division. For example when Floyd moved from 140 to 147 he fought Sharmba Mitchell. When Pac moved from 130 to 135 he fought Diaz.

Who'd Vazquez and Arce beaten at 122, or Mathebula????
Vazquez had never beaten a Top 10 SBW, Arce had only beaten Vazquez, Mathebula had beaten Ndlovu and had an arguable close fight with Caballero.
Rigondeaux has beaten Cordoba and Ramos, both were top 10 at the time. He's every bit as deserving as anyone Donaire has fought lately.

140-154 is where all the big names are. Donaire can go up there and still not be considered for an HBO PPV headline. Not that he can go up there next year, or should be up there. Calling me dumb. Lol.Last edited by TRTboy; 12-16-2012, 04:11 PM.

Originally posted by THE ИATAS View Post****** thing to say since you have no way of knowing that. If Donaire was bigger he would automatically be more popular since the higher weight classes are more closely followed. If for example donaire had the body of a welterweight he wouldn't be fighting Arce, Nishioka, etc., he would be fighting guys like Berto, Bradley, etc. etc. etc. But again this is some weird point to make since it's impossible to know.

So keep that nonsense about being a fan or a fighter being someones idol out of this discussion.
