    It was a perfect punch. Would have knocked anyone down at that weight.

    Yeah very impressive stuff. Will be interesting to see what he does from here.

    He weighs 122 himself. Welterweights are wee men compared to 240 pound plus heavyweights. Why do they pole axe each other?

    It's not like he's a middleweight fighting super bantams.

    They showd the stats last night. Joe is still ahead of the Monster by a couple wins.

    It says Joe Louis won 27 world title fights I just checked which is the exact same as Inoue. I thought it was 26 at first.

    There's no way someone can watch Inoue-Donaire 1 and say Inoue has a shaky chin.

    :dunno That is a dumb take. That´s like saying that no one at 122 should be getting KO´d, unless it´s via accumulation.
    Erik Morales put people to sleep at 122.

    Inoue is likely as though as someone like Marquez was - you can hurt him, drop him, but good luck stopping him.

    I know that. And as you move up in weight the gains in power far outpace the gains in punch resistance. That's why in the higher weights you seem more KOs.

    You can’t fight his style if you have a glass chin.

    @Zakman would argue your point, vigorously.

    Glass Jaws exist in Boxing and we WILL discuss them on here. A Chin is perhaps the most important attribute for a fighter to have.

    This is idiotic. Log off this website you don't deserve to post here with such a low Boxing IQ.

    I've loved Inoue for years, but he's always had the same defensive flaw of pulling away from hooks hands down. He's exciting to watch as his reactions are excellent but technically he is open defensively. He's also getting to the point where his power can't bail him out as much. He should be very careful if he goes up to 126.

    He got back up and fought on stable legs and footwork immediately so don’t think it was the chin. He was just too light
