If Inoue can fight with the strength disadvantage of coming lighter, he will have a speed-power advantage above the 4 boxers. 31 Dec 2021 --- Inoue vs Rigo 31 Dec 2022 --- Inoue vs Loma 31 Dec 2023 --- Inoue vs Davis 31 Dec 2024 --- Inoue vs Pacman Inoue might not have the same success Pacman had vs Taller-bigger boxers, but its worth trying if he defeats the above 4, Rigo should be the first name to target, followed by Loma then Davis & Pacman
https://www.boxingforum24.com/threads/punching-power-p4p-2021-updates.661985/ Inoue is the same size as Gervonta Davis, Inoue has speed-power advantage. So those who picked Inoue to win are picking Inoue's Speed-Power over Gervonta's Physical strength
Stupid question. Davis is way too big for Inoue. Didn't you see how Inoue struggled against Donaire? Inoue would even struggle against Luis Nery.
“Wait, he only weigh 118lbs? I’ll fight em’” - Tank Davis Sounds like a perfect opponent for Tank. He’s much smaller in size, easily makes 118 when Tank has trouble making 135. I wouldn’t be surprised if Tank’s people tried hard to get this fight. He wants nothing to do with legit prime guys his own weight. Pick a smaller guy and hype it up. His half-wit fans will eat it up. Inoue is levels higher than Tank in the skill department and his command of the English language is probably better or at least no worse, but it’s too big a jump in weight. Tank can KO guys, especially ones much smaller moving up in weight. I hope Tank is forced to fight legit LW’s and not allowed to fight smaller guys anymore. His cowardly excuses are wearing thin. Let’s see him fight a legit LW for the first time. No more old guys or smaller guys moving up (dey the same height!). There are weight classes for a reason, and not height classes.
+ Inoue punches harder-faster than Leo Inoue is the same size as Davis (frame), the difference between them, Inoue punches faster and harder & Tank Davis is physically stronger. Speed + Punching power play a bigger role in boxing than Physical strength If Inoue makes the mistake of bulking up, then the fight becomes a 50/50 fight, as Inoue will lose some stamina & end up landing less punches than he usually does.
They are called WEIGHT classes for a reason not HEIGHT classes. Lots of bulky short guys fighting in higher weights over the years. Lots of skinny tall guys fighting at lower weights. Height means nothing and it’s pure idiocy to make these matchups on height alone. Tank can barely make 135 and Inoue easily makes 118 and could probably make 114 if necessary. The size difference between these two is significant. Their natural weights at this time are several classes apart. Not that Tank wouldn’t take the fight. He loves nothing more than fighting smaller guys.
Height is more important than weight when it comes to punching-power Less options for Tank & more options for Inoue In a porter competition we can expect Gervonta Davis to use his extra muscle to carry heavier weights, but since its boxing, naturally Inoue has the advantage here...because he punches harder-faster than Davis, his punches will first and do more damage. Tank extra weight will help him absorb the punishment more than any other former Inoue victim did, which means his corner will have to be careful and throw the towel before Inoue do irreversible damage...
