Gaballo, nicknamed "Assassin", has been cast as pantomime villain. The 25-year-old's extremely dubious split-decision victory over former IBF belt holder Manny Rodriguez still rankles a year on, and to say that scores of boxing fans are aggrieved he's been given a shot at the title would be an understatement.
Four-weight world champion Donaire "The Filipino Flash" made history in May, by becoming the oldest boxer ever to take a bantamweight belt. The then 38-year-old dominated Nordine Oubaali, stopping the Frenchman in the fourth after three rapid-fire knockdowns.
Will he have enough in the tank to take down an opponent 14 years his junior? It's set to be an intriguing showdown, so follow our guide below to watch a Donaire vs Gaballo live stream online from anywhere.
