I'm looking for Donaire to win but also a bit of concern that Gaballo will now have its first loss. In the end, I like Gaballo instead to win because it's his era now. If Gaballo wins, another Filipino boxer will be more popular again. More opportunities will come and might be Gaballo's ticket for a much bigger fight. Donaire already achieved his dream. It's the time now for a young boxer to enter the high stage. Donaire doesn't need to prove something. He is a reputable boxer for Pinoy boxing fans.
If there's someone who will be popular to follow the footstep of Donaire, I don't think it will be Gaballo, yes, he is still young but he doesn't have the skills yet that could be a champion and would beat the best in the Division, especially Inoue.
Pacquiao was beating Mexican champions during his prime, but this time it's Inoue who are beating Filipino boxers, and it needs to stop and I don't think Gaballo would be able to do that.
There are many rising young boxers in the Philippines, Casimero is still young, at least IMO I will consider him young and still in his prime now, so I would just count on one boxer for now and if he continues to impress the fans, then he would likely be the next Manny Pacquiao but would never reach at 8 Division world champion.
There's still one hindrance for Casimero now, he has to beat the beast and he will become the king of the bantamweight division.
Imagine, beating the top 2 in the pound for pound list, I guess the world will be talking about him, and with his trash talking style, it's easy for him to get noticed.
