    After winning the Bantamweight world boxing super series what's next for Naoya Inoue does he stay at Bantam weight or go up again? if so who does he face?

    Go for the other bantamweight belts first.

    I believe Casimero or Oubaali is next. And I think Arum wants to match him with Navarette and Lomachenko in 2021.

    If it was up to me id want him to fight another champ at 118 then move up to 122. . if everything goes right hopefully a fight with loma at 126 or 130

    Great showdown. Two top p4p fighters. Very underated fight. .


    Loma vs inoue

    Soon hopefully

    Fight Nery, then move up to 122 to fight Navarrete.

    Loma talk is crazy, Donaire well outsized Monsta who might've hit his physical ceiling at 118. I'd love to see the Estrada fight, both him and Noni came up from lower divisions and they are the best fighters below 120 lbs.

    Any info on his cheen or whatever healing?

    Doubt if Nery can be relied on to make 118 again.

    Inoue will be more likely to get knocked out if he moves up in weight again. I saw him getting hurt by Donaire and he was in serious troubles a few times in his last fight. I think that he needs to improve his defense.

    Donaire had the power to badly hurt Frampton and big ass Walters up at Featherweight. You're forgetting a little something here. Inoue was being hit flush by NONITO ****ING DONAIRE. You know, NONITO ****ING DONAIRE. He's kind of a really big puncher and Inoue did not go down.

    Even if Inoue didn't go down when he got hit cleanly by Donaire but he was showing a sign of badly hurt by hugging his opponent tightly in order to survive the KD. We all saw that, didn't we?

    Get all the belts (118) then move up to 122
