I honestly haven't heard of this guy before so I have to look it up on YouTube for his highlights lol.
I just found out that Donaire has still a very huge chances to win against this young fighter.
This guy Gaballo is a solid puncher, but he still needs precision to his punches or else he'll end up not hitting a single solid punch against an agile Donaire.
Though Gaballo may be undefeated, but he hasn't fought against an elite fighter. I guess this will be the beginning of his career.

Everyone begins somewhere and it seems that this is going to be the first real test on the career of Gaballo, however the fact that he has the punching power always gives him a chance, how many fights we have seen in which a fighter seems to have no chance of winning the fight and then they connect a good punch an that is more than enough to win the fight or at least to change the course that it was having, so Donaire still needs to be careful so this does not happen to him.

The problem here is Donaire cannot KO Gaballo, he might be at a disadvantage as Gaballo is the younger fighter and he has better stamina than Donaire. So my point here is, Donaire should go for a KO early, otherwise, the decision might favor Gaballo if he gets tired in the later rounds.

This could be the case and KO is not easy at all especially if your opponent is a great boxer too with a good record and younger than you. Donaire have to put extra effort here and do his proper training, because this a huge fight for him, though its ok to aim for an early KO but its better to focus on his strength and stay active through out the rounds.

IMO, it's not really a huge fight, although Gaballo is younger and undefeated the quality of opponent Donaire beat is higher than what Gaballo had beaten, it's a big test for Gaballo but for Donaire, it should be an ordinary day in the office comes the day of the fight.
