    Inoue's barely lost rounds throughout his entire career and he's never had to rely on his power to bail him out.

    DAFUQ?

    Inoue has more skill and more power in a pound for pound sense.

    There's no single area in which Davis is better, let alone overall.

    Davis is more athletic in a fast-twitch type sense. Seems to be the more explosive athlete. Although yes, Inoue does have heavier hands and hits harder p4p.

    I think it would take a team of three thousand engineers over a decade to invent a machine that could plumb to depths of your stupidity if you honestly don't know the answer to the question you posted.

    Wouldn't be surprised if we saw this fight one day given Twink's penchant for leprechaun hunting opponents from lower divisions. If so, I'm taking Inoue via brutal KO. Better skills, better all round fighter, and more power.

    Inoue is beast compare to Tank, who is just fighting someone that his daddy told him, names but not quality.

    If you know boxing, obviously it's Tank, but a lot of these forum guys think the lightest weights are better because it's some boxing hipster ish and they can't see the obvious. It's like, anything under lightweight blinds people to awful resumes and basic skills. It's really sad and I just feel bad for you guys having to live your lives like this. Inoue is what happens when you shrink Wlad.

    I noticed that there was only one vote for Tank, so I took a guess and then peeked at who voted. BINGO. lol

    You made it way too obvious when you named dropped Wlad.

    Not really. If Wlad fought guys that size, he would look to have roughly the same amount of chin and throw combinations almost identically to that. How can anyone not assume this?

    I haven’t watched Inoue so I was believing you but then you said he’s a small Wlad so I’ll say Inoue is better than tank.
