    Comments Thread For: The Beltline: After a perfect run of three, Naoya Inoue takes his foot off the gas

    Such are the standards set by Naoya Inoue, and so great is his form, the prospect of the Japanese superstar fighting TJ Doheny has been greeted with, at best, widespread indifference, and, at worst, condemnation

    The expected fight was supposed to the Sam Goodman.
    But Goodman gambled and decided to fight some Thai guy before that, and ended up breaking his hand. Real smart.

    TJ Doheny has fought 3X in the last year in Japan. He has won all 3 by KO.
    That's a main reason why he's fighting the Monster.
    Inoue likes to stay busy.

      I'm going to watch it , Inoue doesn't deserve the negativity, neither does Doheny , he's like BUTTER , he's on a hot roll.

            I wish i could ask Fulton what he thought of Inoue b4 the fight that he found out wasn't what he originally thought, after sharing the ring with him. Like, did he think Inoue would be too small or not pack enough of a punch to hurt him? Did he think his punches would hurt Inoue, or that he would be able to confuse Inoue with his unusual style? Did he think he could keep Inoue honest and make him slow down his normal attacking style? Did he have an accurate assessment of Inoue going in, or did he totally underestimate him? Or does he still not fully accept any idea that Inoue was somehow just better than him, and does he blame the outcome more on himself than on the abilities of Inoue? Also I wonder what he thinks of Inoue's skill, speed and power after being in there and facing him, as opposed to just seeing him from the outside looking in? I hope Fulton makes a full comeback and does better than ever. I think he's a great fighter

              I'll watch but a waste of a fight. Monster by KO whenever he wants.

                Inoue will become the 1st fighter to stop dohney and he deserves credit for it.

                  I don't have a problem with Monster taking an easier fight now and then.
                  He's certainly proven his mettle many times.
