Naoya Inoue already surpassed Jofre and Olivares?

In terms of ability ? Maybe, we won't know until he is done, but possibly. In terms of all time standing ? No, his resume is still a bit too thin for that.

 

With all due respect to Inoue, no probably never.

 

Vicente Saldivar.

 

I'm not even 100% that Pacquiao should be above Harada.

 

Jofre was the Golden Bantam for a reason. Splendid fighter.

 

Big victory but Saldivar wasn't the Saldivar of the old. He should have stayed retired after the Shibata KO. Donaire was faded but he was (still is) game.

 

Who Donaire beat since 2012 to have became this great fighter after Rigondeaux already had schooled him 10 years ago ?

 

Jofre was also 37 years old when he beat Saldivar, and had 70 fights worth of wear and tear on his back. They were both way past their prime, which is crazy given how Jofre was a Bantamweight and Saldivar was a Featherweight. It's a better win than a prime Inoue smashing an almost retired Donaire, who would never win a fight again after the rematch. If it's not better, it's at least comperable, and the rest of his resume compensates for it.

Try putting Inoue in the same era as Ali, Duran, Monzon, Canto, Napoles and Griffith and he would be lucky to ever be ranked top 3 P4P.
