    Jesus, that's moronic. Did you watch the fight? Butler's entire goal was to go the distance -- he covered the whole time, and barely threw any punches.

      I notice Inoue wasn't as destructive as usual because Butler didn't really wanna fight and stayed defensive. That style kind of spoiled Inoue's style, not to where he lost rounds, but just to make him look less effective and frustrate him a little bit. He still beat on whatever part of Butler there was to hit. Fulton will spoil Inoue in a similar fashion with his defensive skills, except he loves to fight too and will **** out with Inoue. This is a fight I'd love to see
      When Fulton gets hit, he has a strong tendency to stand there and try to trade blows. That would be bad for him vs Inoue, but fun to watch.

        I know Inoue can punch and is a great fighter, so yea it could be bad for Fulton, but Fulton is naturally bigger and displays a very good chin against bigger fighters. Aside from that fact, Fulton is too smart and skilled to where someone can just tee off on him over and over with clean flush punches. He's far from a punching bag. I get the sense from watching him that if he didn't get bored and if he really wanted to, he's skilled enough to box in a way where he barely gets touched. And i suspect he'll box Inoue like this until he feels his punches, and if he realizes he can take Inoue's power and deal with his speed, he'll **** out with him. Also Fulton knows how to neutralize an opponents strengths, take their best weapons away from them. He's a master boxer. So this will be one helluva fight whenever it happens

          I don't get the hype. The best child sized fighter is still child sized. Eat a hoagie.

            I think 130 is his max If Alex Ariza Victor Conte Memo Heredia did his conditioning I think 140 147 would be doable

              Inoue is one inch shorter than Fulton and same height as Tank Davis, if you cant see the all-around skill power of Inoue youre watching the wrong sport, and he is getting better so who knows how far he can go.

                Woulda loved to see Inoue vs JMM, Pac, MAB, Morales and Lomachenko at 126.
