I really like both guys, but is there any better fight to be made in the lowerweight class then these two? I love what mijares did to arce and I love what donaire did to darchinian. What do you guys think, who will win? I think mijares can capitolize on donaires young age. It would be a great fight though, hopefully we can see it this coming year 2008.
Fernando Montiel beats them both
Im picking Donaire in that one if it happens, he's got the reach and wont be outboxed like Arce was. Plus he has great power at that weight class, Maldanado has a decent chin.
Good matchup Julius...Quote:

I'd favor Nonito due to the harder & cleaner punching, but I also think that Mijares skills are slightly better then Nonitos just sloightly tho not by much. Nonitos fought at Super Fly. and he seems to be making the 112 mark OK at least we haven't heard anything from him or his camp. So there are some very interesting matchups there for him also. I'd like to 1st see him fight Naito then maybe Sakata but mainly I'd like to see him fight Naito.
Matchups at 115 Munoz, Montiel & a all out Philpino battle between Nonito and Gorres.
I don't think nonito is having a hard time making weight. he can definitely move back up when he wants or down though. I'd like to see him and Munoz at 115 too and I'm still hoping to see Montiel vs Gorres rematch even though I do think Montiel defeated gorres convincingly enough and he hurted gorres a few times.Quote:

His only about 25 years and only nearly 20 pro fights. nonito doesn't have the backyard brawls the rest of the Filipino Fighters go through. With all those heavy handed war in asia, and the confrontation all Filipino fighters dish out on eachother. Him and viloria are very americanize its not a bad think but imo it makes them a lot less hungry, unlike the starve bad asses most filipino fighters are.
Koki Kameda-Nonito Donaire would be an outstanding match up
Castillo is still the best fighter at 115 IMO, I'd love to see him fight Montiel! I think Donaire/ Sakata would be a great scrap!Quote:

Good fight Rains. I'd favour Mijares because of his experience but Donaire seems to be getting more and more impressive. I really didn't see him stopping Maldnoado so not only can he box but he appears to pack a punch too!
he barely got by gorres and got floored by melendez(who is melendez)i think maybe he might get past donaire if they fight now. but he needs to outpoint mijares which is not his style.Quote:

So if you really analize this, Nonito is doing well for himself hes boxing smart and he's not getting hit with big shots. I think he took one or two against Vic but that's about it.Quote:

I see him as a top dog for a good time to come. I think Nonitos humble and is as hungry as any fighter that's directly from the mean streets of PI.
Viloria, I don't know what the hell happened there all that talent and he just can't seem to get it together for some reason.
I personally really like Donaire and he is a pleasure to watch and listen to. Very well grounded kid who seems very humble and I look forward to watching him more in the future. Seems like he could have applied more pressure last night with Maldonado and maybe finished it sooner{all credit to Maldo}, but good guy for the sport IMO.
i guess your right, i shouldn't be hard on nonito just cause viloria dissapointed. Nonito is different from brian, nonito never gets tired of throwing and he doesn't hesitate at all.Quote:

Since viloria, theirs this saying within fino's that americanize fino fighters are soft. i shouldn't have been carried by that myth, its unfair to nonito and even to brian. If you see the battles between fino fighters in the philippines though, they take away the weak and seperate the elites. I'm sure you guys have the same test in mexico. A pleasure to watch, very aggressive starve fighters fighting for glory.
There you go Julius... :)Quote:

No shit! Julius... :o
Well I agree with Nonito theres no need to waste his time with Brian now. Unless Brian can turn his career around and rack up some wins them maybe he should but as of now theres need.
well nonito can revenge the robbery lost he feels brian got over him to his chance at the olympics before they were pro's. Thats where this little rivalry began.Quote:

EG, but i was paraphrasing nonito. :)
