Inoue vs. Donaire WBSS Bantamweight Final

[serjent05]

This fight will be held in Japan i think, not China. I think there will be handicap but they will put it only days before the fight.

Venue: Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan

Fighting in your opponents hometown is challenging. Imagine your opponent will have the whole crowd behind his back and every time he throws a jab, crowd will react negatively. Unfortunately, Donaire's chance to win is getting slimmer and slimmer. He may wan't to win this match badly but everything from odds, age, crowd, record is all against him. He only have experience and heart and nothing more.  

I hope judges won't be biased this time.  There are lots of recorded fights where japanese fighter won even though they are clearly way behind points.  I am not belittling Inoue since I know he is a capable fighter which can knock out an opponent, and Donaire is not exempted to these possibility, it's that, Japan boxing judge is known for unfair and biased  judgement whenever a Japanese fighter fights on its homeland.

Donaire's best chance to win here is to knock down Inoue if we feel that the judge credibility is bad.
I can really sense that this fight will end up a knock out as for sure opposite to what Inoue told in the news that he will be more careful and not too aggressive, I don't think we will see that, Inoue  is Inoue , monster is not calm, they love to knock you down right away.

He might mean it or not but even so we can definitely see on what are the things behind those words either he do just pretending to be
calm or just doing the opposite.Among on its fights you can really see the hunger for knockout as you can observed into its solid punches.
I havent seen Inoue to last up more rounds though so i might be interested if he would last up until the last round when we do talk about
stamina.

Probably since both fighter have a  power that can knock down their oppnent in just 1 punch.  This is actually an exciting match up though I have worry that Donaire might resort to a one punch knock out that will lead him to defeat.  I have seen these kind of strategy made by Donaire and the fight end bad for him resulting to a loss.

yes, against the stronger fighter like Walters, if he can't knock his opponent in a single punch, he will face trouble as the fight progresses.
This Inoue has a very high knock out power but he is not as big and as strong as Walters, so if he hit Inoue  with a big punch, we might see what we like to see.

Do Inoue's chin is brittle or not ?Checking out on his previous fights I don't see for him on being hit hard on the chin for him not to easily
go down.If he had one then its already a big problem for Nonito. So its much better to play safe and wait up for a good timing counterattack.

He wasn't hit because he is very dominant against his opponent, I don't know how strong his opponent is but we know that Donaire is a smart counter puncher and Inoue might pay for being aggressive if he makes one mistake that might make him hit the floor.

Donaire has more experience that him based on the number of fights, he cannot underestimate the achievement of Donaire are/were champions for a reason.

Definitely, the chance of Donaire winning the fight is slim but this situation will bring the best out of Donaire when everything is against him, that's where Filipino fighters are known for. I just crossed my fingers here, he already did it months ago and i hope he will surprise everyone come November 7.

Still my money is on him.

^ Inoue will come out the aggressive fighter here and Donaire will play the counter puncher. If he can survive or not sustain heavy damage from the early rounds and frustrate the young Japanese fighter, he has a better chance of landing those left and right hooks then win. Not an easy thing to do though.

It's not easy but we know Donaire is an intelligent fighter so with his size advantage I think he can use that to intimidate the aggressive fighter Inoue.
Maybe why the line favored a lot on Inoue is because people are only thinking of Inoue's aggressiveness to knock an opponent, they didn't count Donaire's biggest achievement in this career as a boxer.

[MrZ28s]

Didn't know Nonito Donaire is still fighting. Old guy was a beast during his dog years. I think he will lost to Inoue. The young Japanese looked superb in his last outings. Mr. Donaire is just like fighting his younger version here. I just hope the old man won't get hurt bad.

Donaire is older but he ain't old man yet, at 36 years old he is still winning by beating younger opponents.

His last two fights were both convincing wins.
Stephon Young (KO), he put this one to sleep , and he also beat Ryan Burnett, which he RTD, but I believe it should have been TKO.

Exactly, I was about to say the Walters fight was so damn disappointing for Donaire and his fans. He was able to stay early but Walters is too big and too strong for him and Donaire chase him for that knock out. Eventually he is the one who keeps knock down by Walters.

So there is a chance that Donaire can win against Inoue because of his left hook because they are at a even height and reach so there's no advantage from either side.

Donaire has an advantage on height by 2 inches and 1 inch advantage on the reach.

Here's the tale of the tape - http://fightnights.com/match/8079
Also, its interesting that they are not fighting the same stance, Donaire is Orthodox while Inoue is an Southpaw.

Even with the height and reach advantage of Donaire, still Inoue is the huge favorite in sports books. Only if Donaire has the caliber he was at his prime then maybe he can turn the sports betting odds.

Expectations from gambler is more favorable from the young Japanese fighter, since he's hosting the crowd it's hard for Donaire to win the bookmakers stand. Though upset always present from any boxing arena, and knowing how Filipino fighters mentality, there's always a chance when you are fighting inside the ring, since  stepping inside is already a privilege to prove that you also deserve the win.

That's the usual scenario, when a fighter who has a good record is fighting in his country, he will usually be the favorites, but this one he is really the favorites because he is a rising superstar in boxing with no defeat yet. Let's see if he can easily dispose Donaire like what he did in his previous opponents and hopefully Donaire will be able to give a fight that is worth for our money.
