    Nakatani can't be clinching inside, he must go to war here.

    Inoue showing that’s just above his competition whoever he faces. Hes shown that he always shines best when he’s in against his best opponents.

    R8 Inoue 80-72
    Finally some urgency from Nakatani and he had some success, but the class, especially with the jab, belongs with Inoue

    6-2, Nakatani best round. He's doing well now but was much too tentative early on. Going to need a KO or KD to win

    R1 - close but Inoue
    R2 - Inoue sneaked his shots.
    R3 - Inoue has better control
    R4 - Inoue landed all the shots
    R5 - Nakatani had some success later in the round but round was better controlled by Inoue
    R6 - Closest round of the fight. Still I lean towards Inoue
    R7 - Inoue simply too expensive. Despite his age, it's strange.
    R8 - Inoue edged it.
    8-0

    Nakatani finally trying to ramp it up. He's well behind.

    This is where Nakatani’s corner needs to be telling him he needs a KO and that he’s got to get really aggressive. Because right now he’s just cruising to a loss.

    Nakatani is moving foward now, throwing a lot of combos. He's getting really aggressive.

    At least Nakatani is getting more aggressive.
