    Even the raw Pacquiao that hammered Ledwaba would beat the crap out of Donaire, Nonito wouldn't know what hit him.

    Not a chance. At flyweight I'd be inclined to pick Donaire, but at 122 he'd get destroyed.

    Good call. It's no fluke his two best performances were against the two best fighters he's faced. Two guys who came to win and thought they were going to win.

    Id argue that narvaez is better than darchinyan. Id pick him to beat the guy at 115

    Wow, there's been a complete 180 on here for alot of people in regards to Donaire. He's had two average performances but I still think he's a fantastic fighter. Not saying he beats Pacquiao, but still, jeez. He's not shit.

    No 180 here, I think he'd counter the ever loving shit out of Pac

    Yep he'd score with counters, but he's even more hittable than Pacquiao imo.

    I think he'd simply get overwhelmed and outgunned by Pacquiao at 122, I don't think he could take what Pacquiao can dish out. I'd pick Pacquiao with 95% certainty.

    Flyweight is different, I would give Donaire the edge 60/40. I think Donaire is a much better flyweight than super bantam, and the opposite for Pacquiao.
