With the experience he have in the industry and the talent he possess, I can say that Donaire will be deadly in the lower division but the catch is that we must accept that he isn't the Filipino Flash that we used to know anymore as he's already aging but the power is still there, I don't doubt it. But yes, you are right these are just mere speculations and we should watch him first before saying that he should already retire.

If he still wants to get into fights and wants to dominate then he'll do the stepping down. But if not, he'll do whatever he takes before he retires.

Aging really matters in terms of an athletic career, especially in this type of sport that needs physical contact.

But, as of now, we don't hear a lot from him and we still need to wait for the announcement on what his next step.

It is very difficult to determine how Donaire's behavior will be for now, many are saying that he is already very old and that he cannot do things like before, that he is not at the level of a young boxer, but I think that this should not be trusted , I think it is time to also have to fear or be careful of all the experience he has, in my personal opinion, if I had to fight someone like that, I would be much more careful, because this type of boxer knows his abilities very well and They know when they can give everything, just as they know how to measure the capabilities of a boxer who is an opponent.

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.

If it is in the category of a lower weight as you say of 115, it seems to me that it is much easier for Donaire, it does not matter if he loses more weight, what I do not think will lose weight will be his punches, what happens is that the boxers seek to have more fame according to their weight, and the more weight you fight with more intensity and especially with more coins. Yes, Donaire is a great boxer, but I think he has to keep raising his level and by pure inspection it is known that the heaviest boxers are the most exciting fights, they are the most battle-hardened of all, and they also attract more people, I think That's what it's all about, and the business model, which is what sponsors are interested in, increases interest.

He's doing a lot of things and he can't just do all of those at the same time. As said, I thought that he'll be having another match after the election that he's part of.

But, I'm not expecting him to be the same with his past matches, yes he aged but there's still the power and speed that he's got.

Still, not that the same anymore where most of us were amazed back then.

He can always have any exhibition fight after his pro boxing career is over and this guy is a truly charitable person who always wanted to help. One of his ways is becoming to get into politics to further help others in need. Anyway, his era is over and we are now living in a different era where names like Inoue, Canelo and Haney, and others are the talks in the boxing industry. next Saturday will be a huge fight that will be one of the historical fights this year can't really wait for that. Canelo vs GGG III will finally happen.

After so many things, the fight between Canelo and GGG will take place, I think this is a fight that takes place at the request of the fans, each one of them is looking for a growth option, both CANELO who wants to stand out after being defeated by Bivol and everyone wants to have an opportunity to be the best, the best I see so far with a good performance is undoubtedly Inoue, he is one of the most complete boxers and has great acceptance, the Russian has very good options, after Canelo, if Canelo wins out of insurance, he will ask Bivol for revenge, then this will become interesting, because Canelo would no longer enter with the same strategy that he showed against Bivol, which looked very bad.

Yes, we should just accept the fact that Manny Pacquiao was already done doing professional fights in boxing industry and those heart racing fights he did when he still at the top of his prime will be just in our memories. That is the reality because there will always be a new boxers that will replace the elites.

About his upcoming fight, I'm confused whom he will be facing because there's a news surfacing on the internet.

Manny Pacquiao eyes boxing return with Saudi exhibition fight

That is great news, for me Pacquiao has not yet burned his last cartridges, I think he is a boxer who can give much more, both for himself and for the fans, I know he has had some painful episodes but he can get ahead, Honestly, I don't think that age has much of an impact on boxing, that is, it's not analogous to a footballer who, when he is over 37 years old, is already considered a veteran that nobody wants despite being very good, an older boxer has enough experience and can show a lot of dominance and teach novice boxers, this is something that can be seen today, some do not bet on older boxers because of this problem, but many times they are surprised.
