In what sounds like the title of a Marvel comic book, "The Filipino Flash Meets the Jackal" pits Filipino superstar Nonita Donaire (31-1, 20 KO’s) against the uber-talent, undefeated Cuban boxer Guillermo Rigondeaux (11-0, 8 KO’s) in this battle for super bantamweight supremacy. 
On the surface, it appears that Donaire has way too much experience for the seemingly green Rigondeaux. But looks can be deceiving.
Guillermo Rigondeaux had a long and decorated amateur boxing career, winning gold at the Summer Olympics twice (2000, 2004) as well as capturing the Cuban national title seven times at bantamweight. This wealth of experience makes him "not-your-average" 11-fight professional boxer.
And I am sure that Nonito Donaire and his handlers know that. Trust me, the "Filipino Fash" is not banking on a "too green" upstart who he will be able to walk through.
In fact, I expect this fight to be a chess match for a few rounds. Look for Donaire to have some trouble adjusting to the speed and power of Rigondeaux, who is more talented than any fighter he has faced in his entire career.
However, when it is all said and done, look for Donaire to figure out Rigondeaux and lower the boom on him in the later rounds of what promises to be an entertaining fight.
The Rockettes usually play at Radio City Music Hall. On this April 13 evening, expect rockets to fly, disguised as Donaire and Rigondeaux’s fists.
