It was a terrible stoppage, but at the same time Nishioka didn't deserve to be in there. Wonder if the ref was somehow instructed to stop it first chance Donaire landed something:-\

Compukebox averaged Nishioka's punch output at 22 punches a round. So its probably more like 10. For 122 that's beyond pathetic.
I just don't get what happened, oh lord, I do not wanna see him vs Rigo.....oh god. I love a good feint as much as the next guy but god damn.
That would be pathetic for a 300 pounder let alone a 122 pounder.Quote:

Right so the ref had no choice but to stop it. Alvarado looked done to me in the 1st fight, I don't see any controversy there, either.Quote:

Thank God Donaire was throwing or it may have looked like Briggs/IbragimovQuote:

The stoppage itself was weird..... but if the corner had waved it off, I guess the ref had no choice. Nishioka was very disappointing..... I don't see how anyone can blame Donaire for that. Same happened against Omar Narvaez. Bad run of opponents for Nonito.
First fight was phenomenal - my wife stopped watching cause she didn't understand that a crazy bastard like Rios likes it.
As for the second, I guess I see why guys fight Donaire like he'll knock you the hell out. Seems like if you give him a chance, that's exactly what happens. Either way, it's not really his fault guys fight him that way. Feel bad for the guy, in a way...
I couldn't agree with you more, he acts like a sadist at times, like he enjoys seeing a helpless fighter get his face smashed. I'm serious as hell, Max is a freak!Quote:
