Nietes, the longest reigning Filipino boxing world champion, made a sixth successful defense of the title he won back in 2011 after a 10th round technical knockout victory over Mexican Gilberto Parra.
The champion (35-1-4, 21 KOs) knocked Parra down in the eighth round and the challenger was unable to answer the bell after the ninth round.
Donaire, a former world champion himself, needed even less time as he clinched a stoppage victory over Brazilian William Prado at the 2:16 mark of the second round. He outclassed his foe completely, ending the fight with a series of punches that left the referee with no choice but to wave the fight off.
It marked a successful return for Donaire, who fought for the first time since losing to Nicholas Walters in October last year.
