Is Inoue The Number 1 P4P In The World?

but he's scared to fight casimero. too many excuses.. always fight in his hometown? not impressive at all. bring him to US and give him casimero.. let's see

inoue does not deserve to be the top pound for pound boxer. He has not fought many top guys, and his best win was against a washed up donaire. His resume is weak as F, and his level of competition is questionable. People need to stop praising fighters for blowing through guys that they are supposed to beat and then act like they are the next best thing since sliced bread. Even his skills are not up to par. He does not have the skills that guys like crawford, usyk and spence showed. His defence is not that good as well. No active guard built in to his offense. He just hits hard, that's all. Inoue's resume is actually really good. He's beaten Hernandez, Narvaez, Payano, Rodriguez, McDonnell, and Donaire. It's about as good as a fighter in the lower weight classes' resume can be. It's not his fault he's just so much better than everyone else.

no, donaire was 36 when he fought inoue. similar age as GGG. porter was 2 yrs younger... it's not that far off how do you know who has "far more" wear and tear between those 3? porter had to retire. GGG's amateur and pro career combined, he's got a lot of miles. nonito looked great in his last few fights. GGG didn't. Donaire fought inoue 9 days before his 37th birthday. Nonito is 39 today. Porter is 34 today. And bud is 2 months older than porter. Golovkin was undfeated and had been in no tough fights prior to the first canelo fight. No wear and tear. nonito had been knocked out and was 3-2 in his last 5 going into the first inoue fight. And he is 5-4 in his last 9 fights as we speak. Inoue ain't number 1 off of beating a 39 year old who is 5-4 in his last 9 fights.

That was not the Donaire that Rigo beat. In fact the Donaire from the first fight that broke his socket is not the Donaire Rigo fought. Let's put this in perspective.

GGG and porter had never been knocked out. Nonito has way more wear and tear than those 2. Nonito was 37 the first fight. Porter is 34 today. Not the same age at all. Bud is older than porter bro no, donaire was 36 when he fought inoue. similar age as GGG. porter was 2 yrs younger... it's not that far off how do you know who has "far more" wear and tear between those 3? porter had to retire. GGG's amateur and pro career combined, he's got a lot of miles. nonito looked great in his last few fights. GGG didn't.

I think he deserves to be #1. People will knock on Donaire due to his age but he was not looking like an old fighter before this fight or even during this fight. Give Inoue his respect :boxing:

inoue p4p #1 usyk #2 inoue has obliterated everyone hes fought. no one has ever done that to donaire. oubaali and gaballo are solid kos. usyk has not dominated everyone. anthony joshua was also beat by a much smaller ruiz, who is avg donaire is a beast, and the first time he fought inoue was the same age as ggg and porter. canelo struggled with ggg, lara.. lost to mayweather, bivol crawfords best win is porter and postol, who has basically lost to every top guy GGG and porter had never been knocked out. Nonito has way more wear and tear than those 2. Nonito was 37 the first fight. Porter is 34 today. Not the same age at all. Bud is older than porter bro

Yet, most think Canelo will knockout GGG in the 3rd fight and most say it won't mean anything... some ppl said the same thing about inoue donaire 2 it comes down to how they win if canelo dominates GGG the same way as inoue, he should be given his props if he doesn't then it may not mean as much

#1 Usyk, Inoue can take #2

Yet, most think Canelo will knockout GGG in the 3rd fight and most say it won't mean anything... That's a good point. Only thing I'll say is that GGG is moving to in weight whereas Donaire was fighting at the same weight class he was having success in.

Donaire > Joshua At Donaire's peak? Yes. But this version of Nonito isn't better.

Yet, most think Canelo will knockout GGG in the 3rd fight and most say it won't mean anything...

No. Nonito is his best win and he's almost 40. Usyk went up in weight and schooled a prime Anthony Joshua. Donaire > Joshua

thats the funniest post i've ever read. i especially like the part where yoy say "he doesn't have skills, and just hits hard." inoue is the #1 guy now, with a balance of technical boxing and power punching Do you have posters of inoue in your bedroom that you beat off to?

I've been saying it since before he won the WBSS tournament. Inoue was and is at Least top 3 P4P.

He just beat a 40 year old Donaire. He might be P4P #1-3 but please guys, not due to KO’ing a 40 year old, past prime Donaire. Anything else other than his latest win. He is up there as 1 of the best 6 fighters in boxing: Usyk, Fury, Canelo, Spence, Inoue, Lomachenko. In no particular order. I think those are the best P4P fighters right now. If Bivol can beat Beterbiev, he deserves to be called top 5 P4P as well. I’m flexible with the P4P list. I don’t believe in just dropping and raising fighters for no matter who they lost to or who they beat. I think that’s really unfair that some guy KO’s a 40 year old, moves up in the list, but some other fighter loses to a young, prime, undefeated fighter and just gets dropped and forgotten (Lomachenko-Lopez). It’s nonsense imo. Then P4P fighters should just duck the best, prime fighters and go on a Senior tour just beating up on old or past prime fighters and keep moving up in the P4P ranks. If an unbeaten fighter was to beat a fairly consensus P4P number one who was cleaning out divisions up and down the scale....you wouldn't place that fighter above the one he beat?

These lists are subjective but he very well could be. Nobody in another division isn't dealing with anything like him.
