    No mention of moving up to 118 to fight Monster Inou. Which is smart, he'd get KTFO and no one would remember him.

    Too small for anyone except super-hardcores to care

    Going off history, 126 lbs is basically the lowest weight division that can produce a star that sells to the wider mainstream

    135 lbs is a whole 5 divisions and 20 lbs north of 115 lbs…

    They've invented zoom you know. It made PacMan look big before he started the Clenelo diet.

    There's a YouTube video from a year ago of Bam saying he'd KO Inoue in one round. Ever since then, he's smartly kept Inoue's name out of his mouth even he talks about himself being special, a future all time great, and chasing greatness. Robert Garcia ain't mentioning Inoue either.

    So do I, but just like I can put into the proper perspective that exotic erotic European arthouse horror films and incredibly obscure metal genres most normies have never even heard of, that I'm a huge fan of.... will never been popular because they're esoteric niche genres. I know the same applies to Super Bantam and below, they will remain a niche that receives very little attention of credit from mainstream fans.

    Hahahah most wont get the reference since it was a relatively short gimmick.
    But Orton got crushed by Micheals in a rematch 3 months later.

    Is that really the only reason why you don’t like him, just because he mentioned Inoue’s name? Seems that you’re threatened by what this kid can potentially accomplish. Just appreciate the talent and skills that he has.

    Shows good ring IQ, skills, and strength. I'm jumping on the bandwagon.

    Who said I didn't like Bam?

    I'm just putting his wins into focus. And his statements to task. He said he's special and wants to be an ATG, but hasn't mentioned Inoue since that video. There's a Monster waiting for him that would get him into the Top 3 P4P list immediately and boxing immortality.

    This kid is the truth.

    Hope Hearn puts him on the Canelo vs Golovkin undercard against one of the Martinez.

    He doesn’t need to fight Inoue to be in the Top P4P list. There’s plenty of guys at 115 that he can beat that will propel him to that status. Chocolatito, Gallo, Ioka, Nietes, and Martinez are guys he can face. By then Inoue would have already moved up a division or two.
