    I suspect Crawford would be too big

    Round 6

    Inoue toying with Nery, showing the upper half of his face and baiting him to shoot at him, tapping himself on the forehead with his right thumb and then lowering it to his mouth. Inoue quick to raise his guard when Nery does step in. Inoue showing off his advantage in speed and timing, making Nery doubt his ability to reliably land anything (certainly not without a receipt). Inoue goads him into the attack and unloads a combination, Nery down, back of his head hitting the ropes, all over!!

    KO6!!

    R6, Inoue KO; Nery dropped and stopped by a beautiful right hand.

    Yeah I'm kidding.

    Would love to see him in with Loma though.

    He got dropped in the first, but he had to take the play away, show no humility, then cockily **** his ass and make him humble.

    Nery is better in a p4p sense than Mumguia. Goes to show the gulf between Inoue and Canelo.

    Wow, despite the KD that may be one of his best performances. He made Nery into a punching bag
