    Not top 15 yet.

    EDIT: Olivares is my pick for the bantamweight goat.

    Name me 15 bantamweights throughout history that you would favor to beat him. Hell, name a few that's even more destructive than Inoue.

    H2H = He would beat the crap out of everyone.

    Resume = Not even top 5 despite Donaire victory.

    Please stop overrating Inoue. I love Monster but damn this is out of hand. There’s plenty of BW I would favor to beat him. Guys like Eder Jofre, Fighting Harada, Carlos Zarate, Ruben Olivares, were the true MONSTERS of Bantamweight.

    I thought we were talking about greatness. If you meant h2h then yeah I would say he's top 15 h2h wise.

    Personally I don’t think Inoue would be able to handle these guys.

    Inoue is a powerhouse, and perhaps the most talented boxer in the world today, but this question is rather silly.

    Of course he's not the GOAT at 118. He's had just 6 fights in the weight class, and has far more to prove in the division before he even enters the conversation of Top 10 territory.

    Johnny Tapia would have had a great shot at beating Inoue prime 4 prime.

    Inoue wouldn’t be able to hang with these guys as well.
