You were right. It was like a chess match in the first round and the handler of Montiel told him to close it up a little. He did and hit Donaire but Donaire is a natural left hook counterpuncher. Just like what he did with Darchinian...
Donaire shocked me tonight. I expected him to win. But the hype was strong for Montiel being his equal. Donaire proved something tonight. Bad night for lost mochis.
Good video islander. As far as I'm concerned this is the first big fight of the year, not like the overhyped BradleyAlexander which shouldn't have been a unification fight. I think the Hopkins/Pascal rematch will be in Canada. As much as Bhop complained about the judging he knows that's where the most money is.
@TRIPLESIXSICCNESS You could say Mosley was slick in his prime(late 90's/early 00's) when he was a super talented Jones Jr. esque athlete. It didn't come from defensive skill though. More just a natural reactive talent type of thing. These days he's very lethargic. His only shot in the dark chance against Manny is a punchers chance.
@islander - I think Donaire is going to push the fight to Montiel in the mid rounds and probably Montiel will get caught with something by round 6 or 7, I dont think this would go 12 rounds. Montiel is a very crafty fighter , Donaire on the other hand is hungry to prove he is the next big thing. It's a case of the current great champion against the up and coming big star. Bottomline I think Montiel will be content to play a chess match and Donaire will be the one taking the risks. Donaire by TKO
I think nonito wins by easy decision or KO, he is just too tall and uses his range too well but montiel could get lucky with a punch. Im gonna go donaire ko by 9
Kudos to Adamek for doing What Haye should be doing
Vargas should not be in the ring Plain and Simple! but I don't know the man's personal life and maybe for financial reasons he's forced to jump back in the ring for some dough, in which case, i'd say do what'cha gotta do!
well i still think donaire can take a good punch look at the concepcion fight concepcion was 4 to 5 pounds heavier then donaire when they weighed in and on fight night rafael concepcion was almost 3 weight classes higher then donaire and donaire proved he could take a punch from a bigger guy.donaire even hurt his hand during that fight they have the afterfight interview of donaire with maxboxing.he'll tell you how big rafael concepcion was on fight night.
@superfilipino I agree only to the extent that Concepcion is no Montiel and he might be bigger and hit harder than Montiel. But, as I have said in a previous video being a sharp puncher which is what both Montiel and Donaire are well over compensates for power and size. Example would be Pernell Whitaker. I'm still curious to see what happens if and when Montiel connects like he did on Hasegawa. Concepcion is no where near the technician Montiel is.
Hopefully the fight is a good one between Donaire and Montiel I can see Montiel getting a KO but I just see Donaire as the better fighter the more athletic guy and he does have power to and I just see him winning the fight,but there could be a big KO. Hasegawa and Jhonny are gona go at it well supposedly for the WBC 125lb title, maybe a good fight there. Montiel will have to push hard in the middle and late rounds if he wants to win.
Hey Islander Your right HBO and Golden Boy Promotions are in bed together!! HBO is going to Morales vs Maidana on HBO PPV! That a JOKE!!

@TermiteAssassin1 I'm well aware of that, but i'm talking of the Current Mosley, who is far from slick.

If Donaire takes chances and throws those 4 or 5 punch combos he could impress.Nonito walks around at 145 pounds its crazy how he can cut to 118.
