Espinoza said he’s open to a shot against Inoue next year, and is willing to meet IBF champion Angelo Leo and top contender Bruce Carrington, who was sitting ringside. As a treat, Espinoza sang a Spanish-language song to the appreciative crowd before exiting with the 18th knockout victory in his past 20 fights.
Up now: Japan’s Inoue 29-0 (26 KOs) versus Ramon Cardenas 26-1 (14 KOs) of San Antonio.
