    Top Rank Protection Program in full effect.

    What better way to build stars than by having fighters look like world beaters against lower tier comp?

            I 100% don't think it's Inoue fault for this fight. He makes world class fighters look like cherry picks no need to fight an actual one. TopRank really needs to step it up with Inoue guy could become a major star . They are completely wasting his talent

              He for sure didn't make an over the hill Donaire look like a cherry pick. And just out with a fractured orbital.

                  Inoue deserves to get unexpectedly beaten and I will be rooting for Dipaen. At the beginning of his career Inoue said he wanted only tough fights with the best. However, he didn't want to fight Gonzales, which he should have done before moving up. And others, too.
