Thank god for that. Thought this had slipped under radar. I reckon Donaire makes it into the second half of the fight before Inoue smokes him.
Thanks for the heads up on the time! Inoue by KO for me -- and it could be within 3 because he starts so fast. Donaire is not the fighter he used to be and has been lucky with wbss to say the least! (Burnett injury then Tete pulling out so he got a weaker sub opponent).
Damn, midday!! Was hoping it was in the evening here!! Hopefully they replay it later in the evening!?
At work so just set it to record, cheers for reminding me. Will be a great fight whilst it lasts. Donaires best years are behind him now. I really think he gets knocked out early.
I agree but I wouldnt be surprised if they both touch the canvas before then. I wonder if there has ever been a bantamweight matchup between two bigger punchers ?
It’s mad int it, in some ways Inoue is the new Donaire. Maybe an even bigger puncher but the levels (Donaire at his peak) are similar.
Would never have known about this, such an obscure day/time but luckily I'm off work so it's worked out brilliantly, thanks.
Yeah he is. Shame Inoue doesn't have a prime Rigo to test himself against, as it will need someone like that to negate the power. Cant wait to see this fight, as could be a knockout anytime, like you would normally only get with heavyweights but in this there will be no clinching and with two guys throwing nearly 100 punches a round.
There has. A dedicated fan like yourself should be able to name at least one such matchup. I'll give you a hint...you don't get a A- grade for your boxing knowledge....more like a "Z-grade".
Bloody awful timing innit? When I come to power the first thing I'm gonna do is reset the clocks worldwide to Irish time. Well the clocks in all significant boxing venue locations anyway...
Can nobody name a previous battle between big-banger bantamweights? Come on fellas....ye can do better that that, surely???
Cant see anything other than a Donaire being KO'd. I like Nonito though seems like a very genuine guy but I see a Walters like KO coming up.
Inoue is seriously badass, he's been absolutely obliterating World Champions. I like Donaire but he's past his best and this only going to go one way.
