Comments Thread For: Bob Arum: Inoue is a Tremendous Fighter...Probably Better Than Pacquiao Was

[Eltron]

so I guess since Henry Armstrong was knocked out, that means Joe Calzaghe is better than him and has surpasses him? Is that what you’re saying? Lmao. I feel sorry for the people listening to your podcast ♂️

Chidlishness deleted.

Bottom line is this:

Hagler was never knocked out cold. He lost, never knocked out.

From a SKILL perspective, Hagler was the best of the Four Kings. Because he was never knocked out.

See, the hypocrisy is showing up again.


People say that Crawford surpassed Floyd (despite Floyd beating multiple Hall of Famers).

Yet, when it's Manny, you lose all credibility and self respect. Let's break this down.




Manny was KNOCKED OUT by multiple guys.

Inoue's skill is far superior. As in, he wasn't knocked out en route to making history in multiple weight classes like Manny was.

All you care about is who Inoue fought, right...

Yet you'll openly ignore that Manny:

• LOST to Timothy Bradley
• Got KNOCKED OUT COLD by Marquez
• went the distance with a lightweight (Brandon Rios)
• went the distance with another lightweight (Chris Algieri)
• LOST to Jeff Horn

That isn't even accounting for the Marquez robberies or the Torrecampo spark out.

Those are negative outcomes.

Inoue has NO NEGATIVE OUTCOMES.

By definition, he has surpassed Manny., and anyone who says otherwise is simply biased and not thinking straight (i.e. a mark)

its business lol, bob arum will be around when inoue retires and there will be another who is greater than him

Pac’s greatest achievement is being 8 division, 5 division lineal wright champion fighting Hall of Fame, PFP ranked caliber fighters in their prime. You love Pac? You don’t even know his career! Lol

as a boxer inoue was better than pac ever was lets be honest. inoue has everything including defense offense chin heart stamina etc. pacs greatest achievement is his longetivity and consistency. if they fought at 122 or 118 inoue would have kaoyed him, inoue is a stylistic nightmare for pac and i love pac

i would also like to add inoue has been undisputed and will be 2x undisputed. when has manny even been undisputed. theres also the catchweight issue with him and floyd. guys like inoue and crawford and leaving no doubt

[Eltron]

Tell me when Inoue fights and knocks out Ramirez, Navarrete, Loma, Haney, and Tank and we can revisit this debate about who is better lol.

It's natural to hear a promoter hype up a fighter that he's promoting. Though yeah, unless you're a casual, these type of comments can not be taken seriously at all. No way is he even close to being compared to Pacquiao. He has quite the body of work to put in and he's already 30.

At this point, Inoue hasn’t even surpassed Donaire at 30. Line up Inoue’s best wins against Donaire’s and it’s pretty laughable. Arce, Montiel, and Darchinyan alone destroy Inoue’s best wins.

Pacquiao was learning on the job. And he faced far better (and bigger) opposition. Pacquiao in his prime (between Morales II to Margarito), would kill everyone Inoue has faced likewise.

He’d beat Inoue also. The slick sht and everyone folding easily from Inoue’s power is not how it works at the elite lvl, where guys can do it all and are far more durable than 40 yrs olds or the good B lvl guys Inoue has faced.

The couch potato talk is in full effect.

What Inoue did to Fulton, Rodriguez, and Donaire is amazing. He’s better than Donaire in every way.

[Eltron]

And what Donaire did to Arce, Montiel, and Darchinyan was not amazing? Fulton and Rodriguez are NOT even close to what Arce, Montiel, and Darchinyan were. Hell, they’re not even close to to Mthlane!

Calslappy never fought Armstrong, that's what you don't get.

Let's look at Calslappy, Hopkins, Jones. All fought each other .

Only one of them wasn't knocked out.

That one is better than their opposition.
