Algieri also answers the much-debated question: How important is it for Inoue to build his presence in the United States, if at all?

Has nothing to do with him being Japanese and everything to do with him being good.
Liking someone because they're good in natural. Hating someone because they're good is embarrassing.
You sound like you hate him just because he's Japanese inspite of him being good. People aren't
