    This is a fantastic fight. Both guys deserve credit.

    Inoue continues to demonstrate how an ATG career should unfold.

    Might be my favorite matchup of the year. Both great and both japanese, so there will be absolute focus on the fight.
    Fantastic event to look forward to.

    I guess inoue via points seems the most likely

    If Inoue Loses the fallout will be huge. It's all about the O.

    The closer it gets, the more uncertain I get. When it was announced, I thought Inoue KO; now I am thinking Inoue close UD, perhaps with both hitting the canvas. Best matchup of the decade so far if you ask me.
