Did anyone see the Nonito Donaire fight? Looks like he could dominate the lower weight classes in years to come, reminds me of Pac with his style. He'd be too small for Juanma or Gamboa though I reckon.

Saul Alvarez won again, he has to be the weirdest looking Mexican fella I've ever seen.

Anyone see the Appleby - Laryea bout ? One of the judges was on LSD, shocking.

Haha yeah, Appleby hasn't kicked on at all over the last few years.

Even worst was his interview at the end of the fight he thought he done enough to win the fight truely shocking. Your man was just jabbing his head off him.

The Irish lad on the bill last night won with a 6th round tko. I would love it IF Sky put the best of the undercard fights on there website.

Didn`t see the interview Leighton (was under orders to find out who won `I`m a celebrity` lol), he should have been embarrassed to think he got anything other than a sound lesson.

I'm just watching the Donaire - Sidorenko fight now. I can't believe the referee didn't stop it in the first.

It's here anyway....

Edit: Great performance, 4th round TKO. That was pretty gruesome at the end with the blood. It was pissing out. He always looks so much bigger than his opponents. Love to see him fight Montiel. Be a great fight.

Donaire v Darchinyan would be a decent fight to see again. Darchinyan looking for revenge. As I said before there would be a great match up for him at Super Bamtamweight with Poonswat that would be a fire cracker of a fight to happen but that step up to Super Bamtamweight wont happen for a while yet.

Donaire beats Montiel imo. Not sure Montiel wants any of him anyway.

does anyone know if the Khan vs. Maidana fight is on tv in uk, been looking on all the channels but cant find it.

I think a fight is agreed for the 19th of February. To be fair, if anyone were to pull out, my money would be on Donaire. He's already talking about fighting Jorge Arce if the Montiel fight falls through, which isn't a great sign.

I think Montiel can knock him out if he (Donaire) gets careless to be honest, although Donaire could potentially outbox him. It's an interesting fight though. Be good to see Donaire in with somebody who isn't a lot smaller than him aswell.

He looks weight drained. Yes I based that on watching an interview where he's fully clothed.


In other news, looks like Pac's camp are lining up a fight with Mosley. Yawn.

Yeah but you've missed out the best bit...

The winner will fight the winner of the Cotto - Margarito fight. There's only one Bob Arum. Thankfully.
