I do see that Donaire will win this fight as he's facing a not ranked boxer here. Not degrading Santiago here but there's no big achievement yet he did even though he's currently at the peak of his career.

In this case, he can still show his skills and promote his next fight with lots of sales because we all know, he still has that flash speed and huge power when it comes to kinds of opponents like Santago. It's really hard for Donaire to retire because as of today, there is no Filipino boxer who is more famous than him who is still active because others are just a bunch of still climbing the ladder. He worked hard to get to where he is right now and to fully use it to his advantage until the end, it's just one of the wisest decisions in his life that he could ever make. Maybe he still can fight for another 3 or 4 fights if he easily wins this one.

This is why this fight is so important for the future of Donaire, a clear win will dissipate all the rumors about a possible retirement and his fans will be more at ease knowing they can still watch Donaire fight professionally for a few more years, but a difficult win or a defeat will only increase those rumors, and while I think Donaire has enough to beat Santiago it is not clear to me if he still has a high enough skill to win easily due to his age.

Records alone are in favor of Donaire, but in terms of potential as an underdog lots are betting on Santiago. Though it is still unclear, but surely enough when the odds are out it'll be in favor of Donaire.

Yes, when the odds are out, Donaire will be the favorite for sure.

Yes you are right that mate donaire will be the favorite of this fight as we all know that donaire have the advantages than Alejandro Santiago but I didn't say that this fight is a easy win by donaire as we all know the capability and strategy of Alejandro Santiago he is a good boxer and for sure he brings a good fight against donaire.

Fans are also anxious about this announcement since there are already speculations that he will retire if lose this fight. Some even says that due to his age, it'll be a big problem for him. But personally I would like him to fight for more and will be supporting him. His fight against Inoue is really a glimpse of him hitting his limits, so I hope it'll clear everyone's minds if ever he'll win this fight.

Maybe we just have to wait and be patience, let's not preempt everything for Donaire, if he feels that he wants to retire then so be it. As fans, we wanted to see him fight, but in any case that he decided to hang his gloves depending on the result of the fight, then we will support him for sure. Right now, let's just enjoy this fight and bet according to whoever we see will win here.

The last decisions is on donaires's hands as we all know he is old enough but if he want to fight then for sure he have a solid support from the crowd but if he gonna hang his gloves and focus on his family then that's a good decision for him.
