Everything is set for one of the most anticipated fights in recent years. The second confrontation between Naoya Inoue and Nonito Donaire will take place on Tuesday at the Saitama Super Arena where the World Boxing Association (WBA) super bantamweight championship and the WBC and IBF belts at stake.
This Monday both marked the regulation weight and everything is ready to revive a rivalry that was born in 2019 after both gave away an excellent fight to the world public. On that occasion it was Inoue who won the fight but had to deal with a fracture in his orbital against a veteran like Donaire, who gave him the most complicated fight of his career.
Now, almost three years later, both are ready for a new clash. Both come as champions, Inoue is the owner of the WBA and IBF belts, while the Filipino has the WBC.
The table is set and the fans are ready to live what is predicted to be a great showdown. Inoue-Donaire 2 has arrived.
