Nonito Donaire vs. Omar Narvaez Saturday fight/chat thread

[Mars_ax]

Good fights Saturday:

October 22
At New York (HBO): Nonito Donaire vs. Omar Narvaez, 12 rounds, for Donaire's WBC/WBO bantamweight titles.
and perhaps if they show it: Miguel Angel "Mikey" Garcia vs. Juan Carlos Martinez, 10 rounds, featherweights.

"El Huracán" Narvaez is an undefeated slugger from Argentina, so he might give Donaire a big test:
Omar Andres Narvaez - Boxer

Also Saturday from across the pond in Deutschland:

At Ludwigsburg, Germany: Marco Huck vs. Rogelio Omar Rossi, 12 rounds, for Huck's WBO cruiserweight title; Dominick Britsch vs. Billy Lyell, 12 rounds, middleweights.

Thoughts on these fights?

Donaire will KO Narvaez in dominant fashion somewhere in the first five-six rounds.

Huck is in a stay busy fight. He should dominate. Dominic Britsch is said to be a good German middleweight prospect. Same goes for him. He should take Billy Lyell out easily.

Also, there is Edwin Rodriquez v. Will Rosinksy at 168 on Friday on Showbox.

Nonito beats Narvaez via mid-rounds KO.. Narvaez is a good little fighter with a solid chin but the size disparity is too much here.. Only way he goes past 8 is if Nonito carries him but the champ is looking to make a statement so he's going to get it.

Nonito is the most skilled Filipino fighter ever..

That's a bit premature. Recently, I've seen a lot I like from Donaire, but the one time I saw him live - against Rafael Concepcion, I wasn't super impressed. It could mean he gets up for better opponents. However, I'm just not quite ready to annoint him the second coming. If he runs through the competition at 122 and moves to 126, it'll say a lot.

I'm going to be hoping for a Narvaez win, as he's from the Welsh-speaking area of Argentina, which practically makes him Welsh, therefore go on little Owen Norris, y'know, Dai's son.

Seriously though, I think he's got a big task ahead of him, and Donaire will have too much for him. As for Huck, KO middle rounds, and I actually fancy Lyell to upset Britsch, as he's been matched quite hard recently, and Britsch is the quintessential German 25-0, that is this is his first real test.
