Before Donaire’s fight with Montiel, he was on #5 of the list. Now it’s Pacquiao, Mayweather and Donaire, dominating the top 3 list. If Mayweather will be defeated, the two Filipino fighters could dominate the Pound for Pound best boxers in the world.

Fernando Montiel suffered a hairline crack on his jaw. This was due to the powerful blow given to him by Donaire. Doctors said that if you acquire an injure like that, you were most likely kicked by a cow. Ouch!
