Comments Thread For: Brandon Figueroa: "I Would Love To Fight Naoya Inoue"

[anonymous2.0]

I was just talking to my friends about this, Figueroa has the chin, the will, and the aggression to push a fast hard pace for as long as the fight lasts.

Maybe in 18 months or so at 126, but Figueroa needs to establish himself more at that weight and get some legit wins to put himself in this conversation. I think Inoue would be shocked at how open and easy to hit Figueroa would be

[-Kev-]

That would look like Pacquiao vs Rios or Margarito.

So whats the backstory with Nery and this revenge tour in Japan? I have heard he might be fighting Inoue at 122 next year.

Nery was popped for PEDS after stopping the Japanese champion. There was an immediate rematch demanded, Nery weighed 5lbs over the weight limit for the rematch and probably far more during the actual fight. He ended up stopping his opponent again but this time Japan banned him from ever fighting in Japan again.

TLDR he's a PED cheater and a weight bully.

Fulton outboxed Figueroa. Inoue outboxed Fulton before knocking him out. No ****ing shot people are already underestimating Inoue. He would dismantle Figueroa.

You know your boxing sir. He's literally the one fighter I think could trouble Inoue.

No way. He’s too slow and there to get hit. Fulton was pushing him and had him on the backfoot at times. Inoue folds him with a body shot.

Explosive fight indeed , brandon got chin and will ,sure could do much better than cool boy steph did against the jap but ultimately gets blown away too. Inoues precision speed and timing is impeccable.

This guy is a punching bag. Inoue would kill him

yea i noticed that about Fig he needs to get punched in the face hard to be motivated to fight after that he is all in and wirery like sorta like those air dancers you see outside car dealerships. Unpredictable, floaty uncoordinated and unpredictable. It would be fun to watch while it lasted more fun then Fulton sure..........

Okay. Hopefully we'll see. The physicality and work rate with his physical advantages will make things uncomfortable. I know Inoue is the better fighter but every style has a foil and I think Brandon will make him earn it.

The monster (ATG) maybe should go up fo a fight against Fig, knock seven bell out of him, go back down to defend his undisputed, all while being at least by then #1
