Inoue vs Donaire time: When are ring walks in UK and US for fight?
Naoya Inoue (right) outpointed Nonito Donaire in their first fight, in 2019
Naoya Inoue and Nonito Donaire will go head to head once again as they clash for three bantamweight world titles on Tuesday.
The pair return to the Saitama Super Arena in Japan, the venue in which home star Inoue (22-0, 19 knockouts) outpointed Donaire (42-6, 28 KOs) in 2019.
On that occasion, Donaire failed to take the IBF and WBA Super belts from Inoue, and the Filipino will again attempt to dethrone the Japanese here while also putting his own WBC title on the line.
Inoue has fought and won three times – by knockout on each occasion – since beating Donaire, extending his undefeated record in doing so. Donaire, meanwhile, responded to his loss to Inoue with two knockout wins of his own to claim and retain the WBC title.
Here’s all you need to know about the rematch.
