If Donaire really goes down to a lower weight limit , I think he will be one of the forces to be reckoned with. A lighter boxer tends to have less powerful punches, except of course for some exceptions. I believe Donaire can handle punches really well in the lighter category, plus his punch will be devastating. If he is what he is saying then I can see Donaire reigning in the 115-weight division.
I do think that he really can. Coming from a higher division and going down to a lower one means that he can handle heavier than the light ones.
Do we have the news that he had talked about this already and that he'll be stepping down to a lower limit requirement for him to keep going with his career?
It's still an awaiting moment for his comeback and I think whoever he boxes, there will be a lot of fans that would love to watch and follow him wherever he goes.
Here is it,

"Making the weight is just such a simple thing for me. I mean, I could go down to 115 if I want to, you know, and still feel really strong," Donaire added.
So it's just a comeback fight, he is looking to fight the best in 115 lbs, Juan Estrada and Roman Gonzalez.
Estrada will have a fight on September 3 against Argi Cortes and maybe Donaire is targeting Estrada as the winner of that fight.
