Moving up several weight classes and still knocking guys out, lightning fast, in and out style, I never thought we'd see another Pacquiao but this is as close as I've seen.
Agreed. Pacquiao was extremely raw and unrefined at the lower weights and he was a one trick pony. Pacquiao's faster and more athletic than Inoue, but Inoue's still very fast and still very athletic, hits harder (imo), and is obviously a far more technical as he's a master boxer.
Pacquiao was fighting Barrera, Marquez and Morales from age of 24 up and at featherweight. Inoue only realy been in with Donaire.If you put Pacquiao in with a Buttler or a Mcdobalds.Dear oh dear. I agree that he is better but hasn’t got the opps on his ledger.If he continues fighting these b$$ms he is digging his own hole and the more he does this his blonde hair will only be the only thing sticking out that hole and will be the next NAZ.Is it true Thumbpales is next? Dios mio! That’s why im big on Teofimo this guy is only 26 years has already got 2 big wins on his ledger that trumps any of Noways.Don’t tell me Donaire better than Loma? Lol..Nooway beats Loma talk in coming.But he should prove it.I do believe he is 3 times better than pacquack doe.
I don't see him going up as high in weight, but he's devastating like Pac was in the lower weights for sure.
I'm not sure Pac is the better athlete. Faster hands I agree, but Inoue has more agility through his hips. He can bend at the waist and do things Pac could not. But of course Pac had the great footwork to compensate for that. Could argue it either way. I loved the seek-and-destroy version of Pac at 122 but he was indeed somewhat crude. He started to blossom into a complete fighter at around 130, imo, and then on from there. The JMM draw & Morales loss did him a lot of good because I think prior to that he believed he could just steamroll everyone.
Teofimo at sweet 23 beat Lomachencko that to me is more Pacquack like than Nooway.Backed it up with a win over Taylor at 26.Pacquack was already a champ at 19 doe.
Is he very very good, but against who ? Very weak divisions at 122 and 118. If he can dominate Robeisy Ramirez at 126, than we can start talking about that.
Pac's athleticism was FREAKISH. He simultaneously had POOR and AMAZING balance. He got hit by a Marquez haymaker in midair and wasn't dropped. Pac's also more creative and dynamic with angles, but Inoue's savage in this area as well.
Did you see how much head movement Pac used against JMM? His head never stopped ****ing moving. He spent the entire 1st round bending at the waist nonstop?
I believe he is better than Pac, Loma and Floyd.He in fact this generations Sugar rey Robinson.Before Noway fans have a hissy fit.Hear me out.Look we acknowledged his greatness.But im just curious he bowling over guys like buttler and mcdonalds.That go flying all over the place with one punch.Tin pin bowling level opps.Drained or not drained.
Agreed. I don't really believe Inoue when he says he's going to remain at 122 lbs (b/c he won't get fights there) - but I seriously doubt we'll see Inoue above Super Featherweight. Also, I'd bet that Inoue will call it a career by aged 35.
