Watch some his other fights. He definitely wasn't himself. I've been watching him since highschool. We went to San Lorenzo together. He will be back. The Cuban was better today.

I have to disagree and say it was an awesome fight to watch. Rigo's footwork and ring generalship was crazy to watch. He made the fighter of the year and the guy who KOed everyone in that division (except Mares) look like an amateur.

Donaire just looked off his game. I'm not sure why Donaire didn't make it a more physical fight like he did in the 10th. Instead he stupidly chased a southpaw around and tried to go for the one punch KO. If there is a rematch I hope he actually trains with Garcia instead of an MMA trainer at the Undisputed Gym. Props to Rigo he will no longer be known as "the greatest amateur fighter of all time."

For those that don't know Donaire he grew up in San Lorenzo.

Donaire was definitely not himself. He also looked like a fighter that went in unprepared and underestimated his opponent.

Rigo on the other hand was the total opposite. Very impressive! Only negative was that he ran a lot. That's his style, but I just thought he did it excessively.

very well said about rigo..people just dont understand thats the way some boxers fight, defensively and it works for them ex. floyd...best by far...these 2 reminded me of each other..flash got smoked on the counter punches.
