Their clash takes place Tuesday in Tokyo, Japan, headlining a loaded card that features two more major title fights.

Narvaez and Inoue did their part to keep the main event intact, as both fighters made weight for their scheduled 12-round bout. Narvaez (43-1-2, 23KOs) tipped the scales at a fighting-ready 114.4 lb, while Inoue - who moves up from junior flyweight - came in just under the limit at 114.8 lb. [Click Here To Read More]

Adrian Hernandez is one of my favorite little favorites and this kid Inoue took his belt pretty easily. He's fast, accurate and has power, but moving 2 divisions to fight a veteran is a big risk. I see it a risk for Narvaez as well, this kid can finish his streak. Intriguing fight for sure.
