I agree. Donaire needs to be the aggressor in this fight. Otherwise, Inoue will just do a hit and run on him. I also agree that 39 years old Donaire will have a hard time catching Inoue as he is not the Flash anymore. Donaire will only rely on his accuracy to land his own bombs. But can he land it big time? Inoue tasted it before, the Monster will be fighting cautiously this time. The Monster still has the speed and power to out box and hurt Donaire. I also find it difficult for Donaire to win this one. Inoue's odds are too small. Inoue by ko/tko is not available in sportsbet. So I might take a pass on this one.
Well Inoue and Donaire have had faced off already once and with being said I believe Donaire have realized what is his lack during that time. I would agree that if Donaire didn't become aggressor in this battle there is a big chance that Inoue will take this as a big advantage to him and fortunately win against him for the second time. Donaire's age gap against Inoue plays a big role to have Inoue became the advantage to him and that Donaire needs to be keen during their battle.
But he should not go and put the gas early, it needs to be very calculated as we all know that Donaire doesn't have a good tank because of his age and he is not known to have one, as most of his losses, he falter late on the rounds. Might be a very difficult task for him to win against Inoue by aggressiveness. He needs to by calculated and used his timing and cover early and survived and be it a chess play. And hope that Inoue will make a bad move and Donaire seizing that opportunity.
Of course, otherwise he would not be able to beat Inoue for the 2nd time. Inoue is very conditioned, he does not rely on his power to KO his opponent, he also has a good lateral movement that's why Donaire will not see this as an easy fight. Winning is easy for a faster champion, so Donaire has to prepare some strategy that will counter the quickness of Inoue.
