    Inoue jumped to 115 from 108 for his last fight

    I don't think he's much bigger than Gonzales, if at all

        You don't make that big a jump in the lower weight classes unless you're undisciplined making weight or cutting down too much. My guess is Inoue was cutting down too much. When you put them side by side you see the difference in weight.

          You realize that Inoue is the one who is doing the avoiding right now, correct?

            Or avoiding shark infested waters at 112, theres zero weak major champions at the weight. Its hard to blame him when he had 7 pro fights only. The no 1 fighter at 115 was a much easier fight for a title in a higher weightclass

              It sounds like the kid wants to fight but his handlers want to build him properly.

              It's crazy to even mention a guy with 8 fights in the same sentence as the top p4p guy.

              Must say a lot about the beast!

                Inoue 8-0
                Gonzalez 44-0???

                I guess Inoue is that good of a fighter when with few fights, he being matched against a veteran undefeated champ.

                Gonzalez should rematch Estrada first because that will be a good fight.

                  I would love to see Inoue in Carson. Huge Japanese community nearby. He could do business here.

                      Inoue just moved up 2 weight divisions from light flyweight to super flyweight for his last fight, while Gonzalez is campaigning at flyweight. Hardly an indication he is too big.

                      Fighting a killer like Gonzalez in his 9th pro fight would be a huge ask, needless to say, and likely wouldn't end well for Inoue.

                      Gonzalez has had a number of fights in Japan, and that fight should happen in the future hopefully, but realistically it is quite a ways off.
