Top Inoue vs Donaire 2 Boxing Pick
Our top pick is the champion, Naoya Inoue for a $16 per $100 wagered payout. Inoue is undefeated, crushing all three contenders by knockout since obtaining the unified titles in 2019. Naoya seems to be improving, and Donaire was first champ in 2011, making him 39 years old for this upcoming bout. Bet the champ for a parlay ticket at an underrated -625.
Best Nonito Donaire Jr. Pick
If Donaire can do it, it will be by KO.
I don’t see a way for Donaire to find the decision win.
He’s aging and Inoue is on yet another knockout tear. Bet the Over 7.5 Rounds prop bet at -130 to cover the decision and late finish from either man. It’s a scary bet from my perspective, because I believe the older Donaire gets the higher likelihood a repeat of his round six KO loss to Walters becomes.

Donaire is the slightly larger man. His weight cut is notoriously brutal, which will be more and more difficult to replicate with age. Inoue is a decade younger, but has amateur experience on his side with a 75-6 record.
Inoue vs Donaire Coaches, Inoue and Salas
The family experience of training with his father cannot be denied. Inoue’s father has brought in the best sparring partners and trainers in the world, tailor making each training camp for the next opponent.
Donaire has taken on Salas, the coach that built Rigondeaux, Gamboa, and Magdaleno. Each of them, older, scrappy boxers. It’s a fantastic switch in camp, but I don’t think it’s going to move the needle on your Inoue betting pick.

| Fighter Money Line | Odds |
| Naoya Inoue | -625 |
| Nonito Donaire | +380 |
Inoue has grown in popularity opening at -400 against Donaire and capping at -714.
He was an even stronger favorite in their 2019 bout opening at 2500.
It was the most competitive fight of Inoue’s career to date, but it’s surprising to see oddsmakers and bettors ignoring Donaire’s age and expecting him to perform even better in the 2022 match up. The Inoue vs Donaire 2 betting odds should look closely at Donaire’s age and changes in performance over his last two fights since facing Inoue.
Odds History for Inoue vs Donaire 2 Betting
Inoue has ranged from -1000 to -12500 over his last ten outside of Donaire, -1600 to -3000 over his last three title defenses. His -380 bout over Emmanuel Rodriguez was his closest ever odds closing.
Donaire was a +195 in his upset of Qubaali in 2021. Recent losses include Frampton at +500 and Magdaleno at -140. This is his fourth bout as the underdog since 2016.

Inoue vs Donaire 2 Over/Under Props and Odds
Limited options are available for round calls.
| Rounds | Over/Yes Odds | Under/No Odds |
| 7.5 | -130 | -110 |
| Goes the Distance | +225 | -330 |
We’ve estimated the over to be the right bet. Their last fight went to decision, but going the distance against Inoue will be tougher than ever at 39.
The ‘goes the distance’ prop bets don’t offer enough of an odds boost to consider.
Naoya Inoue Average Finishing Rounds
In his last three fights since the decision with Donaire, he’s knocked out fighters in rounds 3,7 and 8. Over the course of his career, fifteen of his twenty two fights ended at or before the seventh round, with only three decisions since turning pro in 2012 at 19 years old.

Nonito Donaire Average Finishing Rounds
Five of Donaire’s six losses have been decisions. His only KO loss was to Walters in round 6, 2014. Of his last ten KOs, nine have been during or before round 7. Donaire’s 58% knockout ratio makes the over a better bet, though we’re heavily recommending your Inoue vs Donaire 2 betting pick be the Inoue Money Line.

What Round Can Donaire Knockout Inoue?
Donaire is basically up in the air. The majority of his knockouts happen early, but if you’re going to bet a Donaire win, I’d wager the 7-12 knockout prop as well, despite evidence in his record.

| TKO or Disqualification | -230 | +725 |

I think the Inoue decision win for Inoue at +330 is a great bet. It matches their first fight outcome. For bettors confident that Donaire still has his magic, you can hope he survives the fight in the same way he did in 2019. Inoue seems more aggressive and with better conditioning in his last two performances, forcing us to take the Inoue vs Donaire 2 odds on the money line.

Boxing Breakdown for Inoue vs Donaire 2 Predictions
The compubox stats show a competitive first bout, with Inoue landing more jabs each and every round. Donaire knew his hope was a finish, and took rounds with power punches landed. Donaire lost the last three rounds handily, and it’s debatable that Inoue won rounds 1-6 as well, offering only 7-9 as clear Donaire wins. Though the score was close, don’t let that make your Inoue vs Donaire II prediction tentative. Inoue is the superior boxer in almost every category.
