Comments Thread For: 'At Some Point, Naoya Inoue Will Hit His Max'

[F l i c k e r]

He supposedly walks around at 138lbs.

It is fair to say, with careful weight management and letting his body adapt each weight class jump

He can definitely max out at the 135lb division.

Maybe even overachieve at 140, IF and MAJOR IF he somehow carried his power up and apparently had freakish power like Gervonta at the end of it all

"At Some Point Naoya Inoue Will Hit His Max".....

.....and only then will boxing fans be pleased. Heaven forbid we enjoy a fighter be at his relatively dominant best. All we boxing fans do is clamor for fighters to continually move up in weight (using it as the primary means to justify greatness). Then, when they finally do meet their max, we justify their loss as proof of them being over rated.

I wonder how successful Inoue can be while he keeps going up in weight. Pacquiao was one of a kind. Pacquiao was able to become an 8 division weight Champion.

How many divisions will Inoue be able to go up?

Inoue should stay at 122 till 2025. Have atleast 3 more fights and then move to 126 in 2026

So, Teddy and Paulie have joined the bandwagon on wanting Inoue to lose a fight, going up in weight. How about enjoying him as a fighter. No wonder he does not want to fight in the US. Because they will """"""cheat''' him.

Inoue is tied for p4p2with bud.Usyk is #1 because of the size of fury. Bud will get the 2 spot with a win over Madrimov

Manny wasn't an 8 division champion he had legit belts at 112,122,130,135,147,154...

Inoue has thus had belts at 108, 115, 118, 122 and he can still go on to 130 possibly 35 but I suspect 30 will be his limit.

Maybe a few warm up fights too. I mean, usyk had 3 warm up fights before fighting the 2 best in division. Bud had 5 years to best spence
