Stephon Fulton, Jr. vs. Naoya Inoue

I would love to see Inoue KO this guy. I find Fulton annoying and would like to see him humbled.

 

I think Inoue will eventually catch up to Fulton and beat him down and out.

 

Yeah I don't know what team Fulton were thinking with this pathetic contesting the wraps this close to fight night but I personally feel it is going to backfire badly. I don't normally read into face offs but imo Inoue gave him a very serious "You will pay for that disrespect" look.

 

Well “Inoue by stoppage” has been the prediction that has always made me feel like a clairvoyant through the years, so I’m going with that again.

 

Fulton’s going to hug, hold, push, elbow and rabbit punch his way into the second half of the fight, but eventually the body work will take its toll and then he’s in trouble

Inoue KO/TKO 8-10

 

Inoue injured his right hand early in that fight and he was coming off of a yearlong layoff recovering from surgery on a broken hand against Narvaez. Otherwise, Tagooch would be the sole survivor.

 

I agree cause if he's not patient and try to be reckless and go for early KO, Fulton will use his slickness and counter Inoue all night. Fulton by UD.

 

Just an interesting fact, by weight (walk around) and height, Fulton is actually pretty much exactly average in Japan.

 

You think this division is a bridge too far for Inoue? I can't make a decision. I can see Fulton making Inoue miss and pay all night, then I can see Inoue breaking Fulton down and stopping him mid fight. 8-9. Gun to head........Monster.

 

Inoue will work at Fulton's body mainly to slow him down. When Fulton is getting a lot of pain at his body and trying to defend those body shots then Inoue will switch to his chin and face. Inoue's powerful punches will come from all directions until Fulton can't take them anymore. Inoue wins by the late stoppage.
