    Im so pumped for this. I think Inoue KOs him. Its surprising to me that a number of people think Donaire not only has a chance but think he is gonna win? He was the underdog in his 2 previous tournament fights and by the grace of god he was able to advance.

    Nonito should be applauded for the late career resurgence and his willingness to seek challenges after the crushing defeats at featherweight and super battamweight. This is an amazing fight, better than the Tete vs Inoue/donaire potential fights we missed out on imo.

    I think Inoue will take it by TKO/KO

    He's still got KO power in that hook and much faster hands. He's the underdog, but a fairly live one. Inoue likes to go to the body and I could see Donaire coming over the top of it. I'm just interested to see what happens when Inoue has to respect somebody's power.

    Same. Part of me thinks Donaire will get blown out in 2 or 3 but the other part wishes it will go on a little longer to see Inoue’s reaction to a fighter like Donaire. Donaire isn’t a pushover and will bring the fight I think.

    Inoue last three fights have lasted under 10 minutes I don't see Donaire standing upto Inoue's power.

    I expect this to be a quite easy win for the Monster, but you never know.

    Nonito’s got streak and recent resurgence is going to come to a screeching halt. He’s one of the good guys and has put together an impressive career. Certainly better than many predicted, including me. I suspect he will not finish this one on his feet and hope he can retire in good health.
