    Comments Thread For: Inoue Fends Off Donaire, Wins WBSS Bantamweight Tournament

    By Keith Idec - Naoya Inoue's third fight in the World Boxing Super Series' bantamweight tournament wasn't nearly as easy as his first two quick knockouts in it. Powerful veteran Nonito Donaire rocked Inoue with a right hand in the ninth round, bloodied the unbeaten Japanese star and made him work harder to win Thursday night than he had do....

    Great fight!

    Inoue has to tighten his defense but at least we know he has a chin now, nonito landed as clean and hard as possible on him

      It was a great match. Kudos to both fighter. Inoue is not just a KO artist but a great Counter puncher as well.
      Stage is set for Oubali revenge.

            Great from both fighters. Respect to the veteran Donaire.

            What was the deal with the ref getting in the way when Donaire hadn't touched the canvas yet?

              WHAT AN ABSOLUTE BRILLIANT FIGHT!!

              Didn't the count get to ten? also ref got in the way of Inoue as Donaire was stumbling around the ring. Donaire was hurt and ref indicated don't hurt him anymore? Lol !

              Donaire is an absolute warrior and credit to him being a clean fighter at nearly 37 years old and staying with Inoue.

              Saying that, Inoue was up against a bigger, stronger hard-punching fighter but still got the job done. Talk of Inoue going to FW seems premature at the moment. First avenge your brother's loss.

                  What a fight! I thought the score cards were closer before the knock down. Both got rocked in a back and forth scrap. Worth watching at 5am west coast time..
