Comments Thread For: ?Tired? Naoya Inoue promises to improve after decision win over David Picasso

[SouthpawRight]

Inoue's issue is he's just so much better than everybody else in and around his weight class. Not his fault, but I guess will probably effect his all time standing in the long run.

All he can do is keep fighting the best out there. He's not going to get challenged until he keeps moving up in weight but he has no obligation to move up since he's already in his 5th weight class.

Also, the context of this being his 4th fight in a calendar year has to be considered. No one ever looks good having that many fights in that space of time at the top level. 4 training camps back to back in a 12 month period isn't a good idea.

so Terence?

Crawford is in a similar boat.

Inoue's a great fighter, I'm not knocking him. I think he'll have to keep moving up to be challenged.

4 training camps is insane..
Inoue said he was tired, and needs a rest. He does that for legacy and to please the fans. But I think many of us take that for granted.

maybe only 2 or 3 fights next year then

Naoya said Junto and Jesse next

that would be two real iggas in ONE YEAR

May 3rd Junto at Tokyo Dome

Dec 26th Jesse in Riyadh

[SouthpawRight]

Busy Jesse next year 3 bouts

one at 118 to gradually move up. Maybe Naoya’s brother to practice for the style

122 to acclimate himself at Naoya weight. Subaru Murata?

then Naoya himself in December

Junto gets killed.

I don't know how the Bam fight will work weight wise but if they can work if out then that's a fight for the ages.

Nakatani has leaky defense whether he's throwing or not. It's just a matter of time.
