    A bit of an early stoppage. Cardenas was game the whole fight!

    A bit early, but either way it was coming. Great fight!

    A little bit of an early stoppage, but props to Inoue and Cardenas they saved the weekend with this great fight.

    May a few beats quick on the stoppage but it was coming real soon.

    Cardenas was just missing with that left hook throughout. Inoue's reflexes are still great regardless

    Bravo to Cardenas, he fought his heart out!:applaudit: I've been a big fan of his for quite some time now, his ProBox cards have consistently entertained. So I'm glad he showed his worth on the big stage!

    Inoue really is vulnerable in the first 3 rounds. If he took the Floyd approach on feeling his opponent out for the first couple rds he would be far better off

    Cardenas showed heart and deserves credit but he failed to adapt. He was looking for the same counter punch strategy the whole fight rather than adapting.

    Cardenas was done. He was diminished to the point even if he landed something solid it wouldn’t have ended the fight. He took a savage beating.
