Naoya Inoue

[_Rexy_]

118 is behind him. He won the 122 Interim title a couple months ago and got elevated to full champ when Rey Vargas said he's moving up to 126. Sucks we didn't get the Vargas fight but the potential Figueroa fight will make up for that. Nery wants the top dogs. I think we'll see Inoue at 122 by the end of the year.

these orgs need to stop ****ing elevating guys just because the current champ vacated. Why was there even an interim belt when Vargas was an active champ?

I hear you man. Who knows but it looks like a slimy inside business move from here. The PBC and WBC should have just made those two fight. I'm sure they'd both be down for that. I know Vargas was huge for the weight but he would have taken that fight in a heartbeat.

If he does that, then he's beaten 5 of the top 10 at Bantamweight, with another one being his brother

4 of the top 6 by TBRB including the #2 and #3 but either way a formidible achievement... also beating John Riel would arguable create the first new lineage at Bantam in 33 years..

Meh, I don't really care for watching Vargas anyways. Nacho has him with that "new mexican style" which has him boxing like the mexican klitschko

Haha, I haven't given up on him yet. I'm hoping the 126 move will make him engage in more firefights. Kinda like how Santa Cruz was boring af in the three or four fights leading up to the Davis fight. Fighting bigger better opponents might bring the best out of Vargas.

how is it a formidable achievement??? who has he beat??? his best win of his entire career was against an old shot overrated donaire who he struggled against (and had his face broken) hahahahahahaha

didn't fight nery, didn't fight tete, doesn't seem interested to fight casimero anymore.

same situation when he avoided prime gonzalez, estrada and rungvisai

You just feeling argumentative or something there DN? Catching some hurt feelings today perhaps?

S'alright man, if you don't think becoming undisputed and being a 3 division Champion by 27 years old is anything special I ain't gonna waste time trying to convince you.

That said you have got something of a point in that he really should have stopped in at 115 to take on some of the talent there.

undisputed beating who????? 3 division against who??? hahahaha get a clue please

donaire was overrated and mediocre in his prime and yet an old shot version gave a prime inoue the hardest fight of his life and broke his face.that alone says a lot about how mediocre his opposition has been.

maybe if he fought and beat all the guys he ducked he would be rightfully a top p4p'er. but he doesn't have the guts.
