Inoue V Nery Live thread

These Top Rank clowns don't even know Yoshiki Takei was a K1 kickboxing world champion.

How is he as a boxer? I've not seem him yet but his record is perfect so far, albeit not against top level boxers

He has good power and timing, just waiting to see him step up to the world level in boxing. We'll know pretty fast with Moloney.

For some reason, feel like Takei will blast Moloney with a KO inside three rounds despite being an experienced vet and champ.

He's what I would call a "puncher's chance" being a legit chance. Despite being a former kickboxer, since his kickboxing days his punching powers has been considered levels above others in terms of damage output. Of course Inoue and Ohashi might be just being nice, but they said in terms of pure punching power he's got more than Naoya.

Experience: Moloney > Takei
Defensive skills: Moloney > Takei
Handspeed: Moloney > Takei
Stamina: Moloney > Takei (simply due to the fact that Moloney has gone 12R multiple times)
Toughness: Not sure (Takei hasn't gotten damaged or hit enough to really tell how good his HP is)
Power: Takei >>>>> Moloney

Im rollin with Takei on this one for the mild upset (moloney was a slight betting favorite) takei dont box that pretty but has great timing and aparently really good power, i think he can pull it off

I actually think that is like the only way that Takei will win. Blast him while he's filled with energy and charge him fast.

If it goes all the way to decision, I think Moloney takes it with ease.

Is it just me or do these shots not seem low at all??

I'd have to see a replay but they look like body shots to me

Takei looked ok, if he can fight 12 rounds he is a legit threat… those low blows were no joke though
