    When I go back to the corner, the father of the chief trainer sits directly in front of me, takes a deep breath while loosening the trunks and adjusts his breathing. If you erase the lactic acid accumulated all over your body and restore your strength, you will get advice at the same time.

    In most cases, calmly, every word comes into my head.

    Concentrate.

    Recently, there are a lot of early KOs, so I don't have much interval time, so I can't remember much, but there are a lot of mental stories.

    If you want to fight a round, there are 11 intervals. Actually, I hate the first minute interval after the first round is over. I'm attacked by some kind of fear.

    Because the scariest round in boxing is two rounds.

    Refreshing, and surprising, that Inoue admits fear in the ring. But I think the reality is that most fighters are scared in a fight.

    But why round 2? He doesn't elaborate further in the interview.

    And he's authored killer KOs in round 2:
    • Donaire
    • Narvaez
    • Rodriguez

    I think Mike Tyson once said he was terrified in the fitting room and during the ring walk.

    maybe part of it is that ...in between the two rounds he has not really warmed his engine enough. in short ..it is early in the fight and he hasn't got to that rhythm or zone? adrenaline is going into you and that produces that feeling also....imo.

    Casimero pulled out of the Inoue fight in 2020 citing monetary concerns.

    At the end of the first round you know you’re in a fight, the pattern of the fight hasn’t been established, you know your opponent is punching their hardest and you’re in danger, while you know you have a lot of work to do yourself.
