Comments Thread For: Explosive Naoya Inoue recovers from knockdown to stop brave Ramon Cardenas

Unfortunately Tessatore isnt the worst part of the broadcast. The camera angles are awful (too zoomed in and weird heights), and Bradley can be a bit much

A bit much?lol
I had to turn off the sound.
I wish there was a way to turn off the commentators but leave the actual fight sounds .

Best fight of this year's cinco de mayo! It was a very entertaining bout. A slugfest. Cardenas was a very game fighter. He trained hard for this fight. Respect!

He's best when he's countering and being defensive.

This is a joke, right?

he is boxer-puncher in the purest sense of the word!

Someone once described Japanese style to me as Structured Slugging

Finally a great couple of fights on ESPN. The best fights of the weekend. And didn't have to pay PPV. Sometimes things are like that.

No recovery required, his feet were under him off balance stepping in, he was immediately on his knees waving to his corner.
122 is already Inoues ceiling as like Loma he's already smaller than the rest of the division & he's not getting any younger.

After the rest of the over paid ppv garbage on this weekend & then Inoues performance, enjoy the talent & fun whilst it lasts.

No inoue himself said he's best when his being defensive but fights on front foot for entertainment. But I think he'll box more and be defensive at 126 which is good.

Inoue was asked at the press conference if he would move to 126 at some point, he said " as long as he can still make 122, he is staying at 122'

I think he'll go there after fighting nakatani. He's talking these fights against Cardenas and MJ cause they are basically featherweight in disguise. Monster will go when's ready. He did samething when he said he'd never leave 118.

OK sure whatever but my question for you & him is:

Imho in the fights he's actually fought thus far (& not in the hypothetical imaginary ones of potential future scenarios), defence has been neither Inoue's bread & butter nor the strongest aspect of his game; do you honestly disagree?
