    128 would be the highest I think inoue would be willing to do. If this fight is made.

    I was actually thinking earlier about a 128 catch weight fight between Vasyl and Inoue. Man that would be a NASTY fight.

    I think there would be still some people who would try and discredit Loma if he beats Inoue. Saying he “Beat a much smaller guy” but I think for the most part… the majority would give Loma credit because he’s fighting arguably the sports PFP#1 AND Inoue is young and in his prime.

    AND if Inoue were to beat Loma… I mean his PFP#1 is stamped! And even if Fury grows a pair and gets beaten by Usyk that wouldn’t bump him off I don’t think. It’s a great fight for both.

    Man that would be good & a fan friendly affair at that, i doubt it would happen i want to see Loma vs Shakur either way that will tell us a lot about the division going forward as anyone who faces Kamboso's the results is given.

    Inoue is already p4p #1 but if Spence beats Crawford clearly he’ll be #1. Usyk is 3.

    What you think about this fight? Robeisy is a threattt. Dude is slick af and on top of that got pop. @CST80 @drenlou @Pimp C @UnleashtheFURY

    Inoue got the pro exp advantage but Robeisy has become a monster since his first fight.

    Lol Strictly a matter of opinion so you’re entitled to that. But I have Inoue #1 and Usyk #2.

    So you want to see 35 year old Loma suck back down to 126? I thought him and Haney were the same size though? No excuses? Haney is running from the rematch like a ***** he knows he got his ass kicked.

    That's a good fight, but I dont think anybody from 122-126 can beat Inoue right now.

    Ramirez is probably a bigger threat to inoue than fig. But I'm a fig fan so I'd like to see him get a shot first.

    Ok if he were to BRUTALLY STOP Crawford… I wouldn’t have any issue with someone putting him there. Lol! Then it would be understandable. But… If Usyk stops Fury… which I truly think he will… Come on now. :D

    It only makes sense for Haney fans as they want no part of a rematch lol

    That would be a good one. But I imagine Inoue has his eyes on unifying before moving up. 12-15 months from now it could be a very interesting fight.

    Bro Robeisy no joke. As an Inoue fan, I don't want that fight, he got the size advantage on him and hits hard af. If they were the same size it would be a damn good fight let alone the size diff, Inoue got a huge edge in experience though. Robeisy still new to the pro game.

    Haney says he's not rematching him so I'm looking at other options for Loma. The Shakur fight would be easy to make and I'd like to see it. Tank is fighting Colbert so this is the next best option for Loma a big payday in a big fight
