The massive unification clash - which sees Japan's fearsome champion put his IBF crown on the line against WBA 'Super' king Donaire - takes place in Saitama, Japan, on Thursday live on Sky Sports.
Pound-for-pound recognised star Inoue has blasted his way to world titles in three divisions and came in bang on the 118lbs limit, with his Filipino foe slightly under.
'Monster' Inoue defeated Juan Carlos Payano and then Emmanuel Rodriguez in Scotland on his way to the tournament final and returns to his homeland for the Ali Trophy decider.
Donaire is a four-weight champion himself, who has never suffered a loss in this weight class, and he benefited from the unfortunate fourth-round retirement of Belfast's Ryan Burnett in the quarter-finals before stopping Stephon Young in the semis.
