I just hope that he have learned the lesson that being overconfident is also dangerous. But yes, despite that he's aware of who can he beat and win.
It's better for him to have that emotion set at the normal setting so that it won't overwhelm him when he's on another match whether it will be from a lower division fighter or of the same.
Who? Donaire? I don't really think that he have that kind of attitude where goes being overconfident to his foe because of his capabilities, we know Donaire's attitude towards Inoue though but none of it shouts that he's overconfident.
Even us didn't really expected that Inoue will evolve that much because we think that they will still have a long 12-round fight where there will be a long blow-by-blow punches all the way to the 12th round. But Inoue finished Donaire in just 2 rounds with a stoppage.
On his match with Inoue, he said that he's going to beat Inoue and that's what I think that he became overconfident on that time. That's just my opinion and if you think guys that it's not a sign that he's overconfident with those words, that's okay.
It is what I've thought of him.
But I want the best for him if he ever will have another match again. We all love to see him back and healthy again with a win.
I disagree. Donaire is a humble man and he never underestimates his opponents. Inoue developed more as a boxer and has only become more superior than Donaire. Donaire is also now too old to be a bantamweight boxer. This is only a good example for the old to give way to the young.
And now he is thinking to go down in weight and chase more challenges and see if he can still fight the best of them.
Who's going down in weight? Donaire? I think that's a bad idea, I believe the best thing to do is to officially retire as he had proven himself already, but if he is still chasing the money, of course, he will use his popularity and will continue fighting.
Yes, there are news already that Donaire wants to go down to 115 lbs and challenge another legend in Roman Gonzalez. And agree that this could be a bad idea for him as he is not getting any younger, but if that is the case then he still wants to continue fighting then all we can do is watch if see if he can be successful at 115 lbs division.
As for Vergil Ortiz, he will be a good contender for either Spence and Crawford in 147 lbs. But I think those guys are still above and elite level of welterweight and I don't think the Vergil will give them a problem or there will be an upset.
This Gonzales in 115 pounds, is he a power puncher? He might knockout Donaire.
Also, it appears no one is talking about Boots Ennis in welterweight. He is the price if Spence and Crawford are the kings of welterweight hehehehe.
