True, no such thing as an easy fight in boxing especially if you are fighting unpopular boxing because you are not so familiar with his style but the thing with Donaire, he has this experience advantage over Santiago which I think should offset with the Filipino Flash's age disadvantage so this makes the whole fight even.

Donaire is very serious now with his training as he knows that fights on this stage of his career is tough and he is very discipline so this gives him a slight advantage over Santiago.

If we do speak about Age then this is really a huge factor which would affect every athlete considering that we arent getting younger as the years passing by.Donaire do knows that or into those athletes
who are on such condition on which it is really that normal that they would really be trying out to suppress out that kind of risk via doing hard training which would be able to patch up
with that inevitable disadvantage but overall we do know that he does have that speed and good countering which it isnt really still rusted despite of having the age.
I could see that he could still pull off this fight.

Without a doubt Donaire still has a lot of potential within him, however the problem is not only his age but all the damage he has accumulated over his career, this is why we see that at the end of their careers legends end up losing against young boxers which are nowhere near their peak, as they cannot take damage as they were used to and their ability to recover diminishes, so while Donaire should be the favorite, doubts about his age will surely remain with him until the moment he decides to retire.

Well, you are absolutely right about that, a boxer like Donaire who has more experience than other boxers due to his age, is something that he should take advantage of, but in part he also has to train his body much harder, and even if age also passes bill a boxer has to make more and more effort,there are some boxers who lose to young boxers, but evidently it is because they are very confident in what they know, in what they have and in what they can give in the ring, they do not take into consideration that a young boxer has much more resistance.

Things continue to go well for Nonito:
