    I think Junto beats Inoue the first time they meet. He’s on a vision quest. The dude has wanted nothing but Inoue for a decade. He shouldn’t wait though. He should go to Manila and beat that loud mouthed nothing there just to get him out of both of their hairs.

      Has anyone else noticed that when this site got the facelift that the content went so far downhill in terms of quality and quantity?

        What makes you think Bam KOs Nakatani? That's a nearly even fight. Nakatani has a much better chance against Bam than Monster.

          There has been a shift, but remember before when they had that Hans Themistode writing for them? Never before (and since after) had their been so many extremely poor quality articles churned out and it mostly came from that one guy.

            Bam is a much more accurate puncher and he's much more defensively responsible. He will break Nakatani down and stop him without too much trouble. So will Inoue.

              And Inoue beats junto because he has wanted nothing but a p4p opponent to fight. Chocolatito didn't happen and can't move up to 135. Then finally he saw junto and knows that will be his ticket to immortality and since then he has been eyeing nakatani just like he did with fulton. It will be just like Crawford vs Spence. Inoue will dominate.

                122 is a wasteland in terms of elite opponents after Inoue ravaged it and made many a fallen foe move up in weight.

                  The same goes the other way around. Inoue gets hit hurt and dropped by guys with less skill, precision and power than nakatani. Plus Nakatani looks like a guy who will gain power and punch resistance by filling out at a higher weight, thats usually the case for these lenghty skinny guys.

                    and finally Vegas
                    unlikely... I think one loss should be enough on either of their record and then Inoue will go to FW and Nakatani take over SBW.

                      it is a move up in weight class that is good for boxing and good for Nak and bad for a few fighters as he starts to carry his weight in another division.............
