Donaire vs. Nishioka ( Saturday night fight thread)

[Mars_ax]

Hello all...
I was at the weigh in today. Here are my thoughts on it.

I also have pictures and videos including Roy Jones. Check it out.

@CutMeMick - was Donaire bowing to Nishioka as a sign of respect in one of your pictures?

@Rantcatrat
Yes...

He bowed twice. When they first met up center stage to take pics and once they were done taking pics.

Very respectful and gentleman like as usual from Donaire.

@CutMeMick,
Great job on the thread you posted, the interviews were really professional looking, I hope you do more of them for Saddos.
As for tonight's fights, Donaire by KO somewhere after 6th round - And as much as i'd truly love to see Alvarado stomp a mudhole in Rios' ass, i'll say Rios wins a SD. (I hope i'm wrong)

cheers dude

To me this trio should be the norm on HBOs mic!

There are no back feet in Alvarado and Rios. Expect carnage, short carnage.

[IamInuit]

Good first round.

[Mars_ax]

Alrighty, here we go, Bob Papa, Kellerman and RJJ calling the action for HBO B.A.D., first up, Mike Alvarado vs. Brandon Rios.

[TitoFan]

C'mon Alvarado! C'mon Nonito!

I'm predicting a KO9 for Alvarado and UD for Donaire.

[Spicoli]

Like Rios coming underneath but Alvarado is mixing it up nice and Rios was just standing there a couple of times after combos...Alvarado 1-0

[Spicoli]

Alvarado cannot miss Rios at range off combo but trying to match uppercuts inside is a no no early. Round 2 Alvarado 2-0 so far

[Mars_ax]

Hmm, good round one, it's hard to imagine this going 10 rounds..

[Mars_ax]

Damn good fight, they could do this in a phone booth. ')

[Mars_ax]

Lederman has it Alvarado 2-1 after 3.

[hairymadness6]

Wow Rios/Alvarado living up to the hype! I'd be real surprised if this one goes the distance.

[Mars_ax]

Good night of Boxing so far, the main up next- Nonito Donaire vs. Toshiaki Nishioka, 12 rounds, for Donaire's WBO/IBF junior featherweight title.

[Mars_ax]

Not to underestimate Nishioka, but I can't see him being a problem for Donaire.
