    Credit to Inoue he's not playing games, he's going at the best right out the gate. That's what true champions do, but I feel like he bit a little more off than he can chew. I think Fulton will put on the performance of his life and show the world why weight classes exist and that he's an elite champion.

    I just did.

    Also: I didn't say I thought he beat him, but yeah you can certainly rationalize it, it was not the first time a volume puncher beat a far more accurate fighter.

    You didn’t. Murata knocked him down 50 times and beat the living crap out of him. There’s no way to score that fight for N’dam even the WBA president was outraged.

    1. Stop with the hyperbole, only 1 KD was "scored" (or 2, It's been years since I saw that fight).

    2. Why are you attempting to make me argue contrary to what I already said? At no point in time did I say I even thought N'dam won the fight, I said it can be rationalized why he won (due to his far higher volume). He threw what 2-3 times more punches? If you actually watch boxing, you know that some judges will score volume over anything else. That is not some type of revelation, it's common knowledge. That is "rationalization".

    It can't be rationalized. It's not a fight that could have gone either way unless you're blind and don't know **** about boxing. It was a complete dominant performance.
