Comments Thread For: Stephen Fulton-Naoya Inoue 122-Pound Championship Clash Targeted For Late Spring In Japan

[Chris Hanson]

Fulton Haney Little Charlo and Shakur take on all comers

[kiaba360]

A pound-for-pound showdown is on the horizon.
(OKAY, about time!)

UTT-OHH.

(WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?)

The problem is that, Stephen Fulton is affiliated with Al Haymon, PBC and, Mayweather Promotions.
Pacquiao, Crawford and now, Naoya Inoue, were and are affiliated with Top Rank.

Al Haymon, PBC and, Mayweather Promotions, have demonstrated that they are determined to delay or destroy any 'BIG' boxing match that are not being put on by both fighters being signed with Al Haymon, PBC and, Mayweather Promotions.

Which the FACTS show and were:

Mayweather vs Pacquiao---until Pacquiao signed with them several years later.

Tank Davis vs Tevin Farmer---Farmer did not sign, and there was no fight.

Tank Davis vs Ryan Garcia---Garcia has not left Golden Boy and Signed with PBC, there has been no fight.

Errol 'the tooth' Spence vs Terence 'Bud' Crawford...Crawford has not signed and there has been no fight.


Stephen Fulton vs Naoya Inoue targeted for late Spring in Japan.

Meaning that:

Al Haymon, PBC and, Mayweather Promotions have enough time to do what they do best...delay and/or destroy this fight if they do not control all the money, and call all the shots.

FACTS.

Try to be cautiously optimistic. Fight isn't concrete, but at least they're negotiating. PBC/Haymon cannot afford to keep blocking fights. This is Fulton's best option, not Figueroa. Fulton is not some PPV attraction either, so there's no reason to protect him.

It'll be an upset to people that don't know boxing Fulton is a way better boxer than inoue, just he doesn't have a country behind him to cheer him on while he knocks cans out

Fulton lost to Adam Lopez you Casual. Inoue kills this guy especially in Japan where they won’t let Fulton hug.

I still can’t understand who some ignorant casual idiots have Inoue as the #1 p4p rofl lol the guy has beaten nobody aside from a over the hill washed up Nonito donaire

Very rich of you to be calling others “casuals.” You’re a biased fanboy.

I am one of the "idiots" who expects Fulton to duck Inoue. Let's hold on here a bit. This fight is NOT signed or scheduled yet by any means, and I will be greatly surprised if it happens. At this point it is just talk, just like Davis vs Garcia. If Fulton actually faces Inoue, especially in Japan, then I will apologize to Fulton and his fans. But I'm not holding my breath. As for the fight itself, yes, Fulton will be the Monster's toughest test on paper. But Inoue is a special talent and will eventually overpower Fulton.

Waiting on date and time announcement: Tuesday, 3AM EST.

Gosh, I hope not. They really need to stop doing that.

So what you’re saying is that while Inoue is knocking out cans, Fulton is beating top opposition? Kek.

Fulton is undefeated, you moron. Casuals are hypebeast fan girls like you who can't appreciate boxing skills but instead get high on straight up and down basic fighters that chase knockouts. That crap only works on cans and over the hill that inoue been fighting till now

[Finito2K]

Inoue went life and death with an old Nonito in their first fight. I got Fulton winning by a clear UD, unless they rob him in Japan like they did Franco.

"Old" Nonito was undefeated as a bantamweight in their 1st go round. As a matter of fact Donaire was still the best bantamweight in the division -not named Naoya Inoue- when they had their rematch.

Inoue by landlside decision.

[Johnny Rubber]

Fultong is going to Japan to hand this guy his titles, I don't understand why the champion is traveling. CBS might to look into new management, he will not win a decision in Japan, knockout or bust.

Japan has the money.
