    Is there anyone that can test Inoue?

    Vert fast, good technique and a lot of snap. Very good technically.
    I actually think he has a very good defence and reflexes for such an offensive fighter. By far the best Japanese fighter I've ever seen.

    He can only beat what you put in front of him the problem I have is I look at these divisions and people love to talk about how great these smaller weights are.
    ''ah ya a casual these babyweights are the best, we are hardcore fans yo''. But the reality is they're absolute ****!
    Ghost towns!
    Apart from 115 these divisions are so weak its like Jesus, boxing really is dead.

    118 = dead, 122 = dead, 126 = dead.

    Is there someone that can test him so we can get an idea of how great Inoue really is?

    I'm sorry but Fulton just wasn't it. His range, his ring I.Q, his adjustments, it just wasn't it. He looked rusty, he looked shook, his range was completely off, anything he did do was completely forced. There was no flow, no rhythm.
    He didn't know how to block or parry a jab. He's about the only Philly fighter I've seen who can't counterpunch. He didn't once attempt to block a single shot to the body. I could go on all day, he did nothing right, it was terrible and he may as well have stayed in the locker room. I'm sorry, he is not an elite fighter or world class and if he is its because the rest of the division is a morgue.

    We need to see Inoue with an elite dance partner and through no fault of his own, granted he skipped by many HOF fighters and ATGs in the lower weights but there just seems to be nobody there? That intrigues me as a fan at least unless someone can convince me otherwise, he is levels and levels above these lot and the same for them in the division above.
    Part of me feels he is THAT good and he is BUT these divisions suck.

    I don't even see anyone at 126 putting up a good go.

    Robeisy Ramirez like how did this guy win 2 gold medals?
    Just stands flat-footed like a sausage with a high guard and fights in bursts.

    No intrigue there for me. He'll just stand in front of him impersonating a punchbag as shots continually smash through and around his guard.

    Leigh Wood? Lets not even go there.

        I guess just keep him active and have a bum of the month tour.
        Have him break records and collect all the belts. You can't realistically expect him to keep moving up to the point he is challenged just because the opponent has 20lbs on him.

        I guess just keep him active and break records.
        Its a shame I'd love to see someone good enough to truly test him and bring out his best but there is just nobody.
        I don't even see a lesser opponent that is even intriguing stylistically. I just don't. I do not even see anyone I think hmm his style could be tricky.

          If Figueroa gets a belt, I think it would be entertaining while it last.. which wouldn’t be very long. Lol

            He may have to move up to 130, if he can make that weight. I don't see anyone below 130 giving him any tough challenge.

              What about Magsayo? My boy lacks stamina and skill, LOL! But I think at 26 an Inoue/Magsayo would be similar to a donaire match up.

              If Inoue carries his power Mark only lasts 7 to 8!
