    If not how close is he? Would he surpass him if he unified this division? Where is he in the atg asian boxers now?

    Harada was excellent but he was most definitely not at this level. Inoue is better skill wise and achievement-wise.

    Inoue is the best fighter to come out of Japan.

    He surpassed Harada a while ago.

    Really? Pac is better offensively and defensively it's kind of a wash

    Harada is an ATG and arguably the best fighter Japan has produced. But Inoue could very well surpass him as time goes on. He's just so dominant.

    In comparison to Pacquiao though, that's a huge stretch.

    You know I hate to elevate a guy to all time great status in the middle of his career but my eyes saw a great fighter beat Fulton. I probably think he'd beat Harada, not easily mind you but I think he's favored.

    Inoue is much better than him and can become 126lbs champ in 2024 easily.

    Pacquiao is and will be for the foreseeable future, the best Asian fighter bar none.

    Inoue has surpassed Harada IMO and is defo top 3 on the Asian fighter list.
