Naoya Inoue-Paul Butler Undisputed Bantamweight Championship Set For 12/13 In Japan!!!

No matter how one sided this fight might turn out this is still a very important fight for Inoue. He’ll be undisputed and then move up to face the big boys such as Fulton and MJ.

 

He should lay off the hard sparring. Months of hard sparring is gonna burn him out

 

If casimero fought inoue he wouldnt be chasing him around the ring. I never saw him at any point being wary of rigo's power or anything. Him being wary of inoue's power is nonsensical to me. Ever since casimero started at 118 he has played the counterpunching role at every fight. He's no Usyk but he's not some uneducated brawler like some make him out to be.

 

It's true that he hasn't been weary so much at 118, but that fight vs Sultan at 115 is despicably bad, almost like a spar. They both seemed afraid to let their hands go.

 

What are the odds Fulton and Akhmadaliev unify before Inoue moves up? I'm hoping they can do it. Assuming Inoue unifies in December, it'd be cool to have two undisputed champions facing off.

 

I'm sure there are others, but the only one I can think of off the top of my head, where an undisputed champ moved up to fight another while keeping their status as undisputed and not just lineal recognition, is Bob Foster vs. Joe Frazier. Closest thing I can think of otherwise would be Holyfield vs. Douglas, but by that point Evander had been campaigning at heavyweight for about two years and had long since vacated his cruiserweight titles. Still close though.

 

Rigo was weary of quadro alas power i have never seen rungudeaux bolt like that.He was doing laps around the ring.Casimero in trouble for sticking his finger in the airrr at Inoue? Last i heard he still hostaged in the UK.Rumors going around he might have a fight later this year.But i dont believe it until i see it.

 

To sultan's credit he did a smart job of tying casimero up when casimero did manage to get close
