Good odds on this one. Too bad I didn't bet. But there will be more

Burnett was looking better but he was taking big shots in the corners and that last round Donaire changed his approach and started boxing and seemed to be getting the better of it.

Sucks for Burnett but it was a good fight. Commentators were not giving Donaire credit for any shots it was...not good.

congrats to Nonito, everybody was expecting him to lose

threw a right hand that missed, landed awkwardly on his back leg and looked like he twisted his back. You can just about fight through some injuries, but not a ****ed back.

Got to feel for the lad. Was looking like a good fight brewing too. Shame all round

A Donaire vs Inoue final would be a dream matchup.
