    Enoue was moving up in weight, fighting bigger guys every time he moved up, so I wouldn't consider that a big negative. But you can't go wrong by picking Golovkin. Let's see what Inoue does with the rest of his career.

        only real criticism of Naoya is his defense

        defense is where Naoya is decent but not good

        the best Naoya power boxers and takes the ko when the opportunity presents itself Stephen Fulton

          Clearly Inoue and I am a fan of GGG, I say this even crediting him with a win over Canelo in their first fight.

            Triple Flop actually fought 2 live bodies exactly 4x
            So he clearly has the better resume

              Inoue is a great below 126lb fighter there is no reason to extrapolate it further.

                I read a stat that says Inoue is #5 least hit of championship level boxers today

                His defense is elite.


                I think his only kryptonite is when he gets overly aggressive vs big punchers.
                It's really just that left hook counter that he's need to correct.
                The MJ fight it was not even an issue.

                  Naoya p4p #2 slot is strong

                    I'm sure during GGG's "legendary" MW run, he was hardly touched (excluding his run in with Shortychenko).

                    Both guys fought in dead divs
                    Easy to look unbeatable

                      Both a pair of overrated bum beaters in all honesty.
                      One guys best win is a gift decision over Jacobs the others is over a 40yr old, shot to bits Donaire who is an overrated fighter in his own regard and practically lost every time he stepped up. Even then he needed two cracks and got his face broke by a shot Donaire
