    i'd favor donaire over any super flyweight but not at bantamweight. at bantam, there is hasegawa, mares, montiel and yonnhy perez who i'd favor over donaire. joseph agbeko would also be an extremely tough fight for donaire as well. here's my thinking, if donaire didn't fight anybody at the lower weight with lesser opponents, what makes anybody think he will fight the very best at bantamweight? and please don't give me this excuse that nobody wanted to fight him because that's a bunch of bull crap. again, donaire has all the talent in the world but he's afraid to fight the very best!

    Didn't he KTFO Darchinyan who was undefeated most feared fighter at 112?

    I think nobody is afraid is of nobody. I've seen Donaire called out numerous big names on his post fight interviews. But politics is getting in the way.

    pac,

    i said donaire hasn't done anything SINCE beating darchinyan! now, having said that, i really do not believe he's "scared" of anybody but it seems to me he sure likes fighting boxers a lot smaller than he. it's really a shame cause he's a very talented fighter. i mean, he's got height, reach, mad speed, footwork, power (both hands), defense, etc.... it's a shame that he's already in his late twenties and he hasn't done more since darchinyan.

    As of right now Donaire is the most overrated fighter in all of boxing. He has one significant victory. In the long run he might prove to be great, he has a ton of skill, but right now he should be considered a bit of a disappointment.
