Can Naoya Inoue become a boxing super star in the future?

[MasterPlan]

Does he speak English?

[Biolink]

No. Its hard for midget weight guys to break through. If he's a star it'll be in Asia.

[Dontbeahater]

He won't be able to fight big names til 126 and he's going to have a hell of a time moving up to 130, 135 since his power might not be the same at those weights. He's not a Loma who is technically gifted enough to best much bigger guys yet. Imo

[Prince Madison]

Lets see him beat a decent fighter first. Even then a highly highly doubt he will be a 'superstar' , casuals arent interested in them weights

He has beaten several fighters who were more than decent.

If he wins the WBSS then goes to the States to fight on a major platform i can see him becoming a star.

Problem he has is lack of any big names at BW or 122. I see a bit of Manny in him.

[Flo_Raiden]

Bump. Inoue does it again. He has the potential to become a PPV fighter and be as big as Canelo IMO.

[Mr.365]

Only if he jumps weight classes or @ least have a big record of W's and staying undefeated

What are the possibilities of The Monster gaining a huge following outside Japan in the future? Can he become a more widely popular name in boxing right now alongside Canelo, GGG, Loma, Crawford, Wilder, Joshua? Would be nice if at some point he becomes a PPV attraction and have an even bigger fan base. He's too good to not have a wide appeal with casual fans.

If he continue doing like that he will become more and more well known just like what pac did.

[Build That Wall]

If he wants to be one, he should bolt out of Japan and start training in California.

Golden Boy prioritizes mexican fighters. He should join up with a UK promoter who doesn't have problems negotiating with both Arum and Haymon
