They all say they want Inoue.
My universal boxing translator shows they're really saying,

"I want to taste the canvas and gaze up at the lights".

Bums just wanna cash out

My translator says "I want that paycheck" but not that different I guess.

That being said if he can right to wrong and remove Vargas off the list of inactive belt hostage takers that would be nice. Vargas and his inactive ass needs to either fight Figueroa or get stripped or fight at 126 more or just move up for sake.

Ball is a paper champion. He should have been D'qd by the 5th round against Vargas and I had Ford winning by 3 rounds. Inoue is a different animal. He would KO Ball in less than 2 rounds. Ball is dirty and lacks ability. Ford deserves a rerun. Scores were a joke.

Banned for ******ity. You don't know what you're watching. Ball smoked Vargas and did absolutely no worse than a draw against Ford. Ford himself accepts that he gave too many early rounds away and lost to the better man.

Sign me up for any Inoue fight. He doesn’t need to go to 126 right now.

I'd like to see Inoue finish cleaning out 122 first. Akhmadaliev, Goodman, and Casimero. Then jump to 126 and start again.

If they fought today, I would put the farm on Inoue. This guy is a leprechaun, he isn't about to box his way in.

For sure. Oompa Loompa wants the Japanese money.

Inoue shouldn't move up because he's not being rewarded. As soon as usyk beats fury, and taking no1 away from inoue already.
There comes a point when the question needs to be asked how many weight classes does inoue need to be no1, and before you conclude other fighters haven't equalled that?

I'm not saying there's no money in Japan, but Ball isn't a blip on the radar. Not in Japan. Not the near east, not east LA, east coast. That was a shaky Ford that Ball bested, on an Eddy card that team Eddy got skunked, 0-5.
