    Why no one is calling for Inoue vs Loma at 130?

    I think this is a plausible fight and relatively easy to make. I think it would be an interesting fight for the fans.

    Inoue has never fought above 122 and Lomachenko hasn't made 130 in seven years. Delusional.

      Why WOULD anyone call for that fight?

        Do people think fighters can just make whatever weight, all willy nilly? Why would it be relatively easy to make? Just have Inoue jump 2 divisions, on top of what he's already done, and have Loma drop to a weight he hasn't fought at since Rigo? I swear...

          In fairness, dude is a Tank fan. Nobody comes close to the three division regular champ

            The weights get really confusing... It almost seems like a given a fighter has to move around a bit... You caught some flack for suggesting this fight but these weight classes really restrict fighters and many great match ups depend on fighters meeting in the middle at a catch weight, so I do not think this is absurd.

              I don't think the Japanese superstar is that kind of a fighter. A heavily-hyped fighter that even skips mid-risk, low reward fights fearful of getting derailed, like you know who, and goes straight to money fights, and meanwhile claims he's being avoided.
              Inoue is a very confident, skillful fighter and he's proud of showing it to the world. You can be sure a talent like that wants all the greatest challenges available. He's a millionaire just by endorsements alone in his country. He don't need no high/low risk, high reward or any of that silly nonsense that is happening in America.

                Don't really think that one times out quite right with their respective weights and where they're at in their careers

                  Probably the same reason why no one with common sense is asking for a Crawford-Tank fight at 147?
