    Boxing aficionados such as @MVC! are claiming that Bud is p4p #1 rated fighter ahead of Inoue. Why is this the case?

    Better resume and undisputed in 2 divisions, not hard to understand. I do think Inoue will do a lot more in his career though. I wouldn’t be surprised if Bud retires after a couple more fights.

    Bud's resume is trash. You clearly haven't follow Inoue's career.

    :lol:

    Better resume based on what exactly? Not paying attention to lower weights doesn’t make the guys in the divisions you do pay attention to better. Crawford still has a sketchy resume. Beating Spence doesn’t change that at all.

    Spence was bigger name than anyone Inoue can fight until lightweight, that's the sad reality.


    I still don't understand why people demand Inoue to fight Tank or Loma and Bud to fight Canelo. There are weight classes for a reason.

    Yeh but welterweight names are always bigger than featherweight and below. I'd say Fulton was a top win, and once Inoue goes uptown 126, Fulton will get some belts back. Where as spence looks very bearable right now.

    I really don’t think too much of either guys resume. Care to explain how Inoue’s is better than Bud’s as a whole? I’m willing to bet you’ve actually got a lot more in depth knowledge about his resume than I do.

    Tyson Fury is the best fighter on the planet including all weights because there ain't a man born from his mother who can beat Tyson Fury

    Undisputed in 2 divisions and just obliterated another Top #5 PFP fighter. Inoue hasnt fought a single PFP opponent yet.

    Inoue's been far more dominant.
