I can break everything down slowly and talk about it, and to me, it helps me out the way I look at my fighting and training.”<\/p>\n Donaire has amassed a record of 43-8, across his 24 years on the professional boxing scene.<\/p>\n The 44-year-old’s last appearance was sent to the scorecards in the ninth-round when he sustained a brutal cut as he clashed heads with Andres Campos on June 14.<\/p>\n That night also saw him claim the interim WBA bantamweight title.<\/p>\n 3<\/p>\n Donaire fought Inoue twice in his most high-profile boutsCredit: AFP<\/p>\n His win when ending his hiatus this year was the first on his record since losing to Alexandro Santiago in 2023.<\/p>\n While the 44-year-old didn’t make it clear if he had an opponent in mind for his next bout he is linked with Antonio Vargas and Seiya Tsutsumi.<\/p>\n Donaire explained: “I got great respect for them, but this is boxing.<\/p>\n “When it comes down to it, I fight everybody.”<\/p>\n What do we know about Jake Paul vs Gervonta Davis?<\/p>\n Paul and Davis have been linked to a fight in the past<\/a>, but now the pair have set a date.<\/p>\n Davis will be fighting the Youtuber-turned-boxer as they meet at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia.<\/p>\n 3<\/p>\n Davis and Paul are finally set to fight in an exhibition bout in 2025<\/p>\n![\"Donaire](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/nonito-donaire-hand-raised-referee-826792432.jpg\")
