[Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Reymart Gaballo (WBC bantamweight)

[Maslate]

Nonetheless, we will know what will happen soon about this match because for me, I can't know for sure who have the upper hand and more favorable to win and both of them have some advantages.

But Donaire has the most advantage as he is more experienced and he has been a champion many times already, and currently the champion as well. If Gaballo will train hard, harder than he ever did before, then I would say that he has a chance to beat Donaire, however, Donaire is just too good with this timing so I think Gaballo will have his first defeat, and probably through KO.

Obviously... the odds are telling that he has the edge, and every champion is mostly listed as the favorite to win in a fight and this fight is no exception. Let's just enjoy this fight, if we are looking for some upset, the easiest thing to do is to side Gaballo to win over an old Filipino the flash Donaire.

Why not if you have some spare? Siding to the underdog mostly gives decent odd. We have seen lots of upsets and the chance to happen it again is always there, though Bookies always gives current champ the edge in terms of odd, it showed from the gambling site that favorite belongs to the current title holder.

Like you, if I have some spare I will amount that I can let go easily. Sparing it to Gaballo is not a bad idea. 

We never know what fate is waiting for this two pinoy pride.

 

[Jating]

Not only the love of sports but most especially the opportunity to earn more money, when a boxer is at the top, they can make more money due to opportunities of having big fights, so Donaire will not retire yet as he can still make money and his goal to be an undisputed champion has not be achieved yet.

Why are you talking that Donaire is already old? Look at him and try to analyze how good he is on his last fight. Donaire would not be a champion now if he is not capable of winning, so let's not worry about his age because it's just a number, as long as he keeps himself busy with training, he surely still has a lot to offer at his age.

While it is true that age is just a number and that people age at different rates at the same time we cannot deny that the older you get the more chances you have to see a very fast drop in your skills from a fight to the other, we are not going to know if this happened until we watch Donaire fight Gaballo, but it is a possibility, after all we have seen a lot of great fighters that during their previous fight looked great only to fall considerably in their performance during their next fight.

Well, mostly that's what going to happen soon for Donaire and maybe he's feeling it now, he can't really deny that fact even though he trains more hard than he had in the past years because even those famous and talented athletes in any given sports will become rusty if your age will catch up on you.
Nonetheless, we will know what will happen soon about this match because for me, I can't know for sure who have the upper hand and more favorable to win and both of them have some advantages.

The only one that can beat Donaire (and other old and ageing sports stars) is Father time. Even if he feels that he still has something to show, but if his body is giving him different signals then maybe it will not be a good idea for him to continue specially if we see some upsets here. But if Donaire wins here by another KO then maybe he will have one fight left in him.

For Gaballo, take this opportunity and give everything he got and try to win against Nonito. Maybe he won't get a chance to fight for the title again if he lost here. And about the odds, imagine you bet on Gaballo and somewhat win, that will be huge win for you, Lol.

It is undeniable that the odds of this upcoming fight between Donaire and Gaballo were mostly favoring to Donaire which I think a crowd favorite because of the good record he has in his boxing career. However, Gaballo is known to have undefeated record and as I can see this fighter has also a good performance in the ring that will going to give a challenging fight to Donaire as well. Probably, let's just enjoy the fight since it is just day away from now in my case I am betting in favor of Donaire.

We are all assuming, but the final verdict will happen inside the ring,

we all see how great Donaire was, but Gaballo also wanted to be known as a great fighter and now is his chance to prove his worth.  

Yes, Gaballo needs to add more routine to his training, watch more videos from Donaire's fights and study how Donaire moves when inside the ring.

Everything is needed to be well coordinated if he really aiming to win against this current champ.

Yeah, age is just a number.. If you still remember Marquez, he is an older fighter when he beats Manny Pacquiao and I believe he is already 39 years old when he KO a prime Pacquiao, Donaire has the same age, so it's really age is just a number. However, I agree that anything can happen, the previous fight performance does not guarantee that we will see it in a new opponent, it happened many times in boxing so I would not be surprise if Donarie lose this fight.

It will be impossible for anyone that is a fan of boxing to forget Marquez and his four fights with Pacquiao, Marquez was an exceptional fighter and his style matched with Pacquiao perfectly and they produced some of the best fights I have seen above a ring of boxing during the last two decades, their fights were in such a high demand that they fought four times even when in the trilogy Pacquiao was clearly ahead, and to do what he did at his age was without a doubt something really impressive.

Donaire is quick but he will lose in a fighter that he cannot hurt with his counter, so Gaballo has to make sure that he has a strong chin as that is usually the target of Donaire in a fight, I only saw him tired in his previous fight but he really has strong stamina, but he has to improve more as Donaire is a better fighter than Rodriguez.

I have Not found some statistics from this match that are reliable, but everything indicates that Gaballo is hungry to beat Donaire, I don't know, but something tells me that if this fight takes place it promises a lot, Donaire's conviction has always been very strong, on the other hand Gavallo has a very good fighting style and I think he can win it, however I am speculating without even properly monitoring each boxer, which is not good to be governed by the emotions that are produced. But if I had to choose now, I think I would go for Gaballo.

the odds are out now. donaire is the favourite here. at stake it is - 1.24 vs 3.40, in favour of course of donaire. but for those who are thinking that it will be another upset in boxing, the odds for gaballo is pretty good.. gaballo by KO/ by decision is at 6.80.
this is quite interesting as recently, there were underdogs who pulled an upset. can donaire keep up with the younger gaballo?

Donaire will, and not only keep up with Gaballo, but he would also dominate Gaballo as Gaballo does not play good defense so Donaire will find a lot of opportunities to release his power punches. I just hope that Gaballo would survive so we will see more rounds because if he gets careless, that would be the end of the fight and his L will get a mark.

When it comes to defense then Donaire isnt really that good too but in number of experience then he do knows on how to avoid possible counterpunches.The only thing he do lacks now is stamina but when it comes on being technical fighter then i dont really have any doubts
on Donaires capability specially on counter punches.

Gaballo should really watched out for that because if he do make himself careless then he would be finding himsel
lying on the canvass.

[Hypnosis00]

Hope this fight won't be cancelled, I just saw the news that Casimero won't be able to fight so our attention is now focus on this fight.

It will happen this coming Sunday and the betting odds still does not change but we have bigger markets now.

Gaballo by Decision 7.20
Donaire round one win 35.00

These are my bets. betting odds here.

It won't be canceled, there are no rumors circulating around regarding that.

Just to ease yourself up, here's the video of their press conference and face-off, they seem to be respecting each other and that's good to see as that means they will go all out inside the ring.

NONITO DONAIRE VS REYMART GABALLO - FULL FINAL PRESS CONFERENCE & FACE OFF VIDEO

[agustina2]

With lots of cancellations and postponements on some other fights, the fight between Nonito Donaire and Reymart Gaballo will push on the scheduled date. It was a nice update since the long wait is over and we will now see Donaire back in action again and if the young Gaballo can make a win.

That fight is important to Donaire as the result will determine his career in boxing. Aside from experience, he carries that pressure to win as no one in his league might accept his challenge if he will lose to Gaballo. It's a retirement now for him if that happened that's why it's necessary for him to win no matter what.

for sure no more cancellation here as it will be few hours from now. but with casimero vs butler, casimero pulled out in the last minute. huh!
donaire is the favourite here so the odds are not that attractive if you will bet on him. but look for the over/under 10.5/11.5 - it may be worth to bet on this money line.
if donaire can beat gaballo, he may be asking a match again with inoue before he retires, let's see...

Hopefully this will push through, Ancajas fight is postponed, and then Casimero has medical issues of his own and can't fight as well.

So now all Filipinos are now left with this one big fight and the ironic part is that it will be all Filipino left. Nevertheless whoever who will win here, nothing to be ashamed, still we can be proud and fly our flags. I'm still undecided so I won't bet on this one. My heart tells me I wanted Donaire to win, but my mind says that we need new young breed to carry the torch for us.

We have the same sentiment honestly. I like Donaire to win but I think it's time now for another Filipino to show some spotlight on the world. Reymart Gaballo is just 25 years old and if ever he wins against Donaire, he is still in his prime to fight another champion on the way. As much as I want Donaire to win, as that will be his ticket for an Inoue rematch if given a chance, maybe time now to hang his gloves and allow youngsters to step in.

Several hours from now before the fight. I hope there will be a shared live coverage on Facebook.

I think this Donaire vs. Gaballo fight will be pushed through and no more further cancellation or postponement of an event because the fight is all set in to happen. With the recent announcement of Casimero out of title defense against Butler, now the most awaited boxing fight event that involves Filipino fighters is this Donaire vs. Gaballo fight. It's understandable to be torn which one you will be going to bet on since they are both our fellowmen which either of them who wins was still going to make our countrymen proud. I am rooting for Donaire but I do expect to see a good performance of Gaballo in this fight.

[Sanitough]

I am rooting for Donaire but I do expect to see a good performance of Gaballo in this fight.

Same here, Gaballo is the one with good stamina as he is a young fighter, but since Donaire has the power in both hands, I guess that makes the fight interesting. Donaire's experience in big fights will be seen here for sure, just like his fight with Oubaali, it was a clear dominance by him as he hurt Oubaali early and he did not give him a chance to recover.
