Comments Thread For: Naoya Inoue vs. Marlon Tapales Official For December 26 in Tokyo, ESPN+

Guys in the lower weight divisions dont have the luxury to sit around because purses are smaller and competition isn’t as deep.

Again.. champions from higher weight divisions should take notes..

Imagine if any Champion, 147 and up, fought 3-4 times a year..

It took Crawford and Spence 2 years to fight once..

Take a smaller purse, get more exposure, get endorsement deals, and be active..

Inoue never been tested outside of Japan

Aside from the fact that he made his US debut in 2017? Fought Rodriguez in Scotland in 2019, who was #3 Ring ranked at the time they fought (and currently #2). And both the Moloney (#6 Ring at time of fight, currently #1 ranked), and Dasmarinas fights were in Vegas, in 2020 and 2021 respectively. But don't let that distract you from your false narrative.

It's Spence and his team's fault for blowing up in weight and staying at 147 too long. Nonetheless, Crawford fought a drained corpse.

Crawford beat the chit out of Spence , the now known as a corpse but not before the beating

Tell me Spence doesn't look like a cancer patient in the Bud fight.

So same for Tapales if he wins then, eh?

Tapales will get the award in different category - upeset of the year for sure! So many "IF"s ,easier said than done.

if he beats this tamales guy, inoue is an all-time great

This may be Inoue's easiest fight. Tapales is wide open, easily hit,
throws looping punches... everything to spell doom vs master technician Monster.

Tapales is also really good at hitting people

Should of fought him before he was diagnosed
Instead him and uncle Al just waited and waited and waited
Guess they knew what we found out
Bud is the superior boxer in all forms
Just give the man props
