Comments Thread For: Naoya Inoue's next fight is set: Ramon Cardenas on May 4 in Las Vegas

[IceTrayDaGang]

He's known already though. I'm not in the States or Japan. His fights are shown live here, he has Canelo status in the UK. In fact, he might be bigger because Canelo is on the downside.

When did I say he shouldn't fight in the US? I'm saying US isn't what it once was and he's globally recognised

not really... casuals have never heard of him before. and his fights are shown here in the US, at 2am!! LOL.. which is why i said, no american fans is gonna wake up that early on a work week to catch his fights!! you keep saying he doesnt need to fight in the US and he is already well known.. every time i mention that inoue should fight more in the US, i get attacked by his fans like yourself.

Brother you used the word GLOBALLY

You should have said recognised in AMERICA

Globally isn't America

yes, if he wants to be known globally. I am not saying America is globally! I already posted this in my previous post that Vegas, MGM is still the Mecca of boxing so people from all over the world will tune in, so he gets more exposure! Whereas fighting in Japan, not many folks will tune in to watch the fight.

The last inoue fight/highlight i saw was the donaire two.
there's nothing really interesting ever since
there's just no household names below lightweight

[TheProudLunatic]

You legit a dumbass.

When a so called fight fan can't defend themselves, they resort to playpen antics

Some "Monster".......

[TheProudLunatic]

Yes notable boxers but only if you are a serious fan.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaand no names mentioned

His resume is the definition of "meh"

[TheProudLunatic]

Canelo is unknown outside U.S: and Mexico.

Inoue can fight on in Japan, I see no problem. Americans don`t really care bout that small divisions, do they?

I think you are underestimating Nelo's popularity.
Seriously, besides AJ, Fury, what active fighter/s are known by non fight fans anyway

[crimsonfalcon07]

keep telling yourself that... and i am not saying inoue must fight in the US only... i am only saying if he wants the exposure then he needs to come to the US more often.. why are his fans so against this? weird... making shiiet up like i am hating on Inoue, when all i said was that if he wants to be known globally, then he has to fight more in the US. vegas MGM will always be the meka for boxing!!

You're so slow and deluded.

He's already fought in America 3 times. Twice in a row in Vegas, in fact, the most recently, winning by devastating KO each time. But you didn't know that because you didn't discover him despite him having already fought in the US when the US still had an argument for being the center of boxing. It certainly isn't now. You and the rest of the casuals only learned about him after he did his thing in Japan and became a global superstar there. There's not a single boxer in the US that commands the kind of purses that Inoue does in Japan, and he's in weight classes that historically aren't well paid.

GTFO with your casual nonsense.

why do yall keep saying this? yes, he;s fought in the US, like 4 years ago. all i am saying is that if he wants the exposure then he needs to fight more in the US!! im not saying he has to fight in the US only! US is still the main attraction, meaning fans from all over the world will tune in to watch a big fight in the US, where as if the fight was in japan.

i just didnt "learn: about him... i first heard of him in 2019. and since then his name is barely known outside the hardcore boxing fans. it's weird that his fans is so against him coming to the US more.
