Nonito Donaire KOs Toshiaki Nishioka

The first five rounds of Nonito Donaire's fight against Toshiaki Nishioka Saturday night looked very familiar. We'd already seen this same episode three straight times: Donaire's opponents playing it conservatively, backing up and surviving, right hand high and unmoving to guard against the Filipino Flash's vicious left hook.

Through those first five rounds, Nishioka, a former WBC super bantamweight champ who'd won his last 16 fights, landed 19 punches, according to CompuBox. Donaire landed 62.

Then, two minutes into the sixth, Donaire (30-1) dropped Nishioka (39-5-3) with a left uppercut. Three rounds later, Donaire sent him back to the canvas with a straight right, and Nishioka's corner threw in the towel.
