    Incredible fighter. Has everything covered and ridiculous precision speed power balance. Just ups the tempo as they fight progresses.

    I'd like to see Inoue face Tapales, Akhmadliev and Nery before moving up to 126. Best to fill-out in the weight class before moving up. The sad thing is that there are no big names at 122 or 126.

    In addition to his work rate and his fast hands, Inoue is tough to hit because he sees punches coming well, like Fulton's right hand, and uses his legs to back away when a punch is coming, he did that a lot so when Fulton loaded up he woudl be one step ahead of him by backing up first. That's one thing I noticed. He doesn't use much head movement, but he does use his body to get out of the way of shots when he sees them coming.

    I was a little surprised at how much Fulton decided to stand there and trade with him. Inoue's handspeed advantage offset the reach advantage and Fulton just couldn't avoid taking punishment. He did have good footwork and was still moving with fast feet in the middle rounds, but Inoue started to time him and that was all she wrote.

    I gave Inoue every round. Unbelievable performance that which for me solidifies him as number 1 p4p.

    He's great but do you really think he can beat a prime Morales, Barerra, or Pacquiao at 122?

    All I got to see was the ko!!! :(

    If this fight is what the scores reflect though, Inoue is #1 P4P no question

    It doesn't bother me. Inoue has always been a great talent, he proved he was p4p#1 today.

    Yes there were some close rounds no doubt. 2 very good fighters but Inoue had more. Was impressed by Inoue’s boxing skills more than his power. Flash does not always mean more skilled.
