    Inoue is certainly not the best fighter in the world.

      Inoue is certainly one of the best fighters in the world. Few have his combination of speed, power, skills and confidence. I like that he doesn't play ego games and try to price himself out of fights. He will fight any opponent, anywhere. Some criticize that he didn't face all the big names at 115, but I think he just outgrew that weight before those matches could be made.

        Good take on Spence v Crawford.

        I think Spence is a fundamentals type fighter.
        And Crawford likes to break those fundamentals of his own and just be so unpredictable. I think he can read when to apply pressure, when to box and move, when to close the distance and when to make things difficult for someone.

        Spence I see more like Hagler, who is predictable but all round excellent in what he does.

        It looks like he has a solid chin. Maybe he can withstand the power. I think he can. But can he get what he wants when he wants in the fight?

          It wasn't that Golden Boy didn't believe in Jermell Charlo. They usually match all their fighters tough.

          I​​​​​​t's what makes their cards so good for the fans.

            Imo I had Brandon Fig. Beating Fulton on my card.

            Inou vs. B. FIG.would be a bloodbath...

                Tru. I had Fig. Beating Fulton and think him and Inou would be a very exciting fight!

                  I had him beating Fulton too punch stats as well as the fight show's it a few pot shot counters throughout the rounds and Fulton was apparently boxing beautifully even though he got rocked numerous times and was shelled up while eating body shots.

                  Either way nobody at 122 has anything to beat Inoue including Figueroa who at this point is at 126. At 126 that's where Inoue is going to have to rely more on his boxing skills rather than raw power but if it does carry up to 126 you could probably list him as one of the hardest punching fighters in history under 130 alongside Nonito.

                    I agree. I did think Fig. Won but it was a close fight.
