Jones chin was way too vulnerable, aside from Barrera which may be down to having his number as it happened to Shane v Forrest who in turn lost to Mayorga it happens in boxing. Jones got beat by lesser fighters than Donaire.

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Jones was a massive bantamweight/super bantamweight. He was 5'8 and would tower over the 5'5 Donaire. Jones to strong
Its time to take the cape and 'S' off Donaires chest as all it did was focus him in one gear and cloaked with false security and get him schooled when it mattered the most. He was never in a lifetime hit with what he would take vs Jones brother. I'll spot you the ultimate spoiler Pinckney loss...and the Johnson fight though Johnson was a very solid fighter, literally robbed of his belt in Thailand and one who Jones had already beat...but before he hit a bad slide, McKinney and an undefeated Eric Morales were every bit the fighter Donaire is...not lesser and they threw bricks the likes of which Nonito should sleep better knowing he'll never have to face. Jones too big, too well rounded and if Vic with two left feet made him wonder "is my cheek broken" Jones would fill in the answer.
wow some people really underrate Jones.. watching youtube videos dont count. You had to have lived in the era and felt that shit.
Jones is more than a handful for Nonito.. Nonito gets taken out
Ok I may be overrating Donaire but Ingle beat Jones, lets not over rate Jones.

On the surface imagine Sandy Saddler fighting at 122? Frightening.Trouble is Jones is no Saddler. They may be body doubles or close to it but that's where the similarities end. Saddler had more chin then Chinese phone book where as Jones had the chin of a burnt piece of toast.
Not sure what happened to Donaire? Maybe Rigo took all the air out of the bag. Hubris is one hell of a drug. He seems to have left his tool box in the dressing the last few outings. Like a mechanic bringing a crescent wrench to a motor overhaul. Still Jones was not the sharpest knife in the drawer when it came to defense. Donaire might just cash in on those octopus like tendencies but not the one handed fighter I saw last week.

Ingle was all heart. It was his best trait. Which is why I always felt his downfall at the hands of Mbulelo Botile was his corners fault. Ingle was being slaughtered. He was already out gunned going into the fight. They should of stopped that fight around the 7th round. I never gave a fuck about Ingle. But it pissed me the fuck off when they sent him out for the 12th. He had that deer in the headlights look.
