This content is protected Naoya Inoue 18-0 (16 KO) — 89% KO Rate Takuma Inoue 13-0 (3 KO) — 23% KO Rate Shingo fathered and trains both. If it came down to technique being a big influencer, Takuma would not have such a weak KO ratio against lesser competition than Big Bro. Same trainer. Same punching techniques being taught.
Sonny Listons son(who didn't box) knocking out Bert Cooper in a street fight. That's all the proof I need.
Tim Bradley had **** footwork. He liked to spend a lot of time on his toes so he rarely turned his hips into shots. And often when he did, he did it while on his toes. But even with MIke Tyson's proper techniques, Bradley would never have punched as hard. Technique plays a big role tho. Naoya definitely has the better punch technique. His balance is better and he turns his body into the punches a lot more.
