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.

Many think that heavyweight is the most exciting, I won't argue with that, but I find lighter, agile, and technical fighters to be more interesting. I hate boxing matches that have more clinches than punches, and that often times the issue with the heavier boxer matches. A heavier boxer is exciting due to the KO often happening but the same thing also happens in lighter weight matches. I think the popularity depends on the exposure and promotional hype injected into the fight. And Heavyweight category have lots of this.

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.

If you are talking about Manny Pacquiao, his last match he really became a slug out there. He even stated his legs are tight, meaning he has difficulty in moving. I don't know if that is the sign of old-age where your minds are able but your body is not. Manny may be slowed down and it was shown in his last fight.

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.

It looks like the fight against the martial art YouTuber DK Yoo would be disadvantageous for Manny in terms of body mass since there is no weight limit in this exhibition match.
