    A Solid, tricky, smart fighter that i think Inoue destroys in 7rounds.

    Sorry not good enough for Inoue, next!

    Bro, Inoue isn't used to facing guys like Fulton, go and try to even find one on his resume.

    This has the potential to blow up in Inoes face.
    Remember what Nate Campbell did to the highly touted Juan Diaz?

    This has EXPOSED written all over it.

    Then the excuses will come, they'll say he used "rough house tactics'

    I dont need to dance around the subject and i havent. I give Fulton 10% chance to win. 20% to survive 12.

    You bet Fulton will win, and ill bet Inoue. If Inoue wins you must have the same avatar as me.

    People getting carried away with Inoue's ceiling. Feels like people expecting Canelo to crush 175 again. Weight divisions exist for a reason, even the spermweight divisions

    Not saying Inoue won't win, but he's never faced a guy like Cool Boy who comes from a completely different boxing culture to the guys he's faced before

    Quick question to Inoue fans: why did he skip flyweight? Reminds me of Pac skipping a bunch of **** in the 90s. Is this common @ spermweight? My boxing knowledge below 130 is dog**** and I want to improve it

    Im not a lower weight division expert either, but Inoue looks good for 122lbs.
    The slick american style is usually better at higher weights, it then gets less effective at cruiserweight and heavyweight. Inoue punching like a horse is a massive assest in the lower weights, has Fulton got enough pop to stop him. Inoues timing is bang on! Do i think Fulton gives Inoue a harder fight then Donaire? No i dont.

    I favour Inoue like most but Fulton can fight and will outweigh him. Good fight that he should get props for if he wins

    While some might see his struggle to KO Paul Butler as a troubling sign, since Fulton is much bigger, just as elusive and more defensively sound. But that simply isn't the case. Unlike Butler, who showed up to survive, and even doing that, he doesn't have an argument that he won even a fraction of one round. Regardless, Fulton will want to win, and will not be content ceding round after round, so he'll throw and throw aplenty. Which will give Inoue who uses angles far better, finds openings, and has the far more impressive punch selection of the two, plenty of chances to land counter after counter, on a vulnerable frequently exposed Fulton. So one of two things will happen, Fulton gets countered until he stops throwing, goes into survival mode, and gives up trying to win. Or he doesn't, and eventually gets KTFO.
