Gonzalez is bigger, stronger (height,weight,and reach), and has all of his fights above 115 and never hurt Montiel, what makes you think Donaire will? Montiel lost by SD to Gonzalez and it was his first fight at Bantam, that has to say something, and the fact that Gonzalez went on to challenge Super Bantam king Israel Vazquez and was easily beating him and had him down 2 times i believe before the resilient Vazquez came back to stop him, says even more about Montiel's ability to take on bigger fighters and do very well
Credit to Montiel for facing those big names. But everything will be different for him under the lights if he faces Donaire. Montiel gets hit a lot and that's a well known fact (I won't even argue about it). I've seen Montiel down on the canvas more than twice. Left hook to the body is his money punch, and Donaire can easily avoid them with his quick reflex and can easily fire counterpunch against Montiel at will.
I hope they fight sooner than later to find out whos the man!
