    Woohoo.

    Inoue destroyed the #1 guy in two divisions in the same year before he had 10 fights, at a younger age than Nery did, and didn't need to eat roid injected javelina testicles to do it.

    I forgot to tell you why I picked Nery to KO Yamanaka @El Chicano, since you clearly don't follow the lower weights very closely, its because he was 35, which is really pushing it when it comes to smaller fighters, they tend to age quicker than the bigger guys. One other thing, Jorge Solis and Anselmo Moreno, neither of whom are spring chickens themselves both dropped Yamanaka a few times, quite frankly it could be argued that Moreno won their first encounter. Moreno is also a southpaw. So to be perfectly honest, the writing has been on the wall for the last two years with Shinsuke, I've had the feeling for awhile the first hungry decent young Bantamweight he encountered with going to flatten his ass, and since Nery is also a southpaw and in all likelihood, hits harder than Solis and Moreno, it was a fairly easy pick for me, I didn't have a moment's hesitation picking Nery for the win. Not trying to devalue the win, just trying to put it in its proper perspective, unlike you.

    Its also the same reason why I picked another upset of Ceja KOing Moreno, they ruined each other with their last match, which was grueling for two old farts.

    Nery is good but I suspect Inoue will be too much for him ... particularly as Nery has a suspect chin.
