Both Nishioka and Rigondeaux are southpaw. They're tailor made for Nonito. l think that's the main reason he moved up to 122.

...oh yeah. He want's Arce too.
sorry buddy but after two weak showing IMO Nishioka and Rigondeaux should both be the favorites heading into a bout against Donaire, and Vazquez threw the right hand plenty, it's the hand that would stop Donaire from coming forward and the same shot that buckled Donaire when Vazquez was in the corner, Nonito has a good left hook but he's far from being Frazier to think that he's gonna KO somebody every time they let the right hand go, anywho he shouldn't even be looking at 126, seeing how IMO Mares, Agbeko, Moreno, Arce, Nishioka, Rigondeaux, and even Vazquez in a rematch give Nonito all he can handle, he didn't have any crazy power on Saturday in fact Arce did more damage to Vazquez so lets see how he continues now that his main asset (his size) is gone
Dude, he won the fight 9 rounds to 3 at worst, with a broken hand. What in the world makes you think Vasquez in a rematch "gives him all he can handle"? I agree that Nishioka, Rigondeaux and Moreno are good, competitive fights, because those guys are all very good -- and defensively-minded -- technical boxers. But none of those guys have KO power and I don't think any of them really throws enough to win. I think the result of each of those fights is another Donaire points victory where people are upset because he didn't look spectacular against a defensive fighter; Rigondeaux is the one guy who's tricky enough that it's fairly even (but I note that he has looked more boring than spectacular in his recent fights -- exactly what you're down-ranking Donaire for).

Someone who's open like Arce (or Mares) is going to get KO'd. Which is why we'll see Arce next.
I as others did had Vazquez taking rounds 5, 6, 7, and maybe even 8, and that was a guy who's not known for being all that technical and who didn't throw much, look at Donaire's face after the fight, he's never had stellar defense and guys like Tyson Marquez have landed plenty on Nonito they just just didn't have the size to be able to do any real damage, Nonito is finally in the ring with guys his own size and it showed Saturday, he didn't bully his opponent and when hit back he felt the punches causing him to back up, he clocked Vazquez with everything but the kitchen sink and didn't really faze him, IMO the KD was more a balance issue more than Vazquez even being really hurt
