These two were both due for an uphill challenge.

As far as Donaire'a legacy, well, with him, it comes down to raw talent and skills alone. He has it. As far as I know, he also lives clean and has a good head on his shoulders.

Forget the politics about worthy challengers. Sometimes you just have to settle and deal with the ever changing climate of boxing.

As far as Rigs, well, he doesn't seem to be a very animated person. You can be the best p4p in this biz, but if you ain't got character, you won't go far.

P.S. I can't wait for this fight, both could box, and both can bang. I hope they surprise us.
