Very intelligent fighter who has looked better defensively but is going to have to open up at some point soon. Unlikely that Tapales wins on points even with a knockdown in the final 4 rounds.
Good fight, so far: 1. Inoue 2. Inoue 3. Inoue 4 10-8 Inoue 5. Gave edge Inoue, Tapales having moments of success though. 6. Edge Inoue again 7. Tapales 8. Tapales
Inoue - 'I don't have the mental strength to take a tune up' Hope this mentality eventually hits the Heavyweight Division.
