I don't want to remember Donaire like this, it's not a good loss but Donaire always keep his legacy and his competitiveness is always there, maybe he has a bad move of chasing Inoue in the early minutes of first-round but Inoue's power is just too much if Donaire hangs up his gloves that will be fine, if he continues to fight then we should respect his decision, he has built his legacy and he is already a future hall of Famer.
Donaire has been known as a counter puncher but his opponent is way faster, way stronger and his punches were way more precise than him.
His age as well greatly affects his performance because he is too slow for Inoue compare to him that is at his prime and stronger as well.
I knew from the start that Inoue will win on this one and many are as well but I didn't expect the outcome. Congratulations to Inoue and a good game for Donaire as well. Maybe it's time for him to hang up his gloves or maybe he wants to fight somebody before he will retire. Take note that many also said to Pacquiao to retire already but he didn't and he fought at least 2 fights I think before he retired. Maybe Donaire will do the same as well.
Innoue can counter punch faster with his left as seen in this fight. He did a lot of left hook, though its blocked, it opens vulnerability of Donaire. When his feet wobbled, you could already see the outcome.
I didn't pay attention to the dates of this match, I didn't even thought their will be a rematch but so it happened and missed betting. But what I noticed is the crowd, Japanese are so behave.
