    This is absurd. Why isn't it on DAZN?

    Maybe Turki can swoop in and be the hero, stream it for free from The Ring YouTube channel? :aaaaa:

    If anything I'm sure there are Japanese stations to carry the fight.

    Do we know who's broadcasting it in the US?

    The wheels have truly fallen off at Top Rank. How have they not got a US broadcaster set for an Inoue fight?

    A huge disaster if this fight doesn’t get a U.S. broadcaster. Why hasn’t DAZN picked it up yet, it should be a no brainer. They had Inoue vs Donaire

    I gave up a half an inch to my wife on our fourteenth date. One would have to say she took it without difficulty or perhaps even notice.

    It's being televised on ESPN Knockout, I think.

    Is MJ not getting dropped due to a solid chin or good defense?

    Not sure. Maybe a combination of both. Also, he's a career 122 pounder

    Naoya Inoue's one man war against Scorpios is unrelenting.:sisi1

    MJ will be the 7th Scorpio he's faced in 8 matches due to the Donaire rematch.

    Gonna be a long night. Staying up after the Crawford fight, then watching the Monster. Needless to say, no yard work will be done on Sunday the 14th. LOL

    Inoue stops him I reckon. Akhmadaliev is good but he's looked like he's been sleepwalking through the last 3 and a half years of his career. I don't think he's dynamic enough or inspired enough to beat Inoue. He's also looked pretty vulnerable to the body before and against Inoue that is a major red flag.
