By Carlos Costa PhilBoxing.com Fri, 09 Aug 2019

The WORLD BOXING SUPER SERIES confirms that the Bantamweight Final featuring Japanese super star Naoya Inoue (18-0, 16 KO's) and the "Filipino Flash" Nonito Donaire (40-5, 26 KO's), will thrill audiences Thursday, November 7, at the Super Arena in Saitama, Japan. 🥊🥊
The 26 year-old "Monster," Naoya Inoue is just one of the most exciting fighters in boxing today. Ten years younger than Donaire, Naoya Inoue is among of the top ten pound-for-pound boxers in the Planet. His devastating power and speed has made him one of boxing's fan-favorite stars, as well as a household name in his native Japan.

Nonito Donaire connects with a right at Stephon Young during their fight last April 27 in Lafayette, Louisiana, USA.
But the experienced warrior Nonito Donaire could never be under-estimated. The younger Japanese star might be the betting favorite, but the ever-popular Filipino multi-division world champion has proven to be a resilient ring warrior of fantastic fighting skills. The 36-year-old is enjoying a successful second-wind in his stellar, and boxing fans just can't wait..!!
It's a collision of the powerful fast young gun against the experienced decorated veteran that might not go the distance. Who will emerge victorious?

Naoya Inoue knocks out Emmanuel Rodriguez last May in Glasgow, Scotland.
The battle's winner becomes the World Boxing Super Series Champion as well as the unified WBA Bantamweight Super World Champion and IBF Bantamweight World Champion. Awesome super fight. May the best Man Win..!! 💥💥
In the card's co-feature, Naoya's younger brother Takuma Inoue (13-0, 3 KOs) will challenge unbeaten, hard-hitting WBC Bantamweight champion Nordine Oubaali (16-0, 12 KOs) of France. 💥💥
