.
and i said it clearly before the Martinez fight, that if he didn't easily get passed Martinez he wouldn't have a chance in there against Montiel, all the Martinez did was prove me right, he didn't deserve to be in that ring with Donaire, it was just a showcase fight for Nonito nothing more nothing less, and yes he did pass with flying colors, if he wouldn't have, nobody would be saying anything, but IMO Montiel will school Nonito, with overall better boxing ability, speed (yes i consider him the faster fighter), and his awesome offense
Montiel gets hit a lot. He's got problem fighting southpaws, and Donaire is also excellent in southpaw stance. And I don't think Montiel will be able to take Donaire's punch.
Donaire is the one who'd have to worry bout gettin tagged, don't forget the fact that Darchinyan rocked Nonito in their fight, IMO Montiel is faster, and lands sharper, flush shots, and hits harder than Darchinyan also, Nonito gets hit plenty against the big boys
