    I’m more triggered of the fact that you’re constantly trying to discredit his performances over 2 former champs and looking impressive at such a young Agee. You go out of your way to compare him to your favorite fighter as if you feel threatened by his potential as he moves up in the ranks. No I think it is you that feels bothered by him and you make it so obvious.

    Yes I am Filipino-American. Not that it really matters because Inoue is one of my favorite current active fighters and I really love watching him. I just think you take your fanaticism of Inoue way too extreme to the point that I feel like you’re overly obsessed with him in a creepy way.

    I figured you were Filipino.

    Like I said, I just merely pointed out that he fought back to back shot guys. If you think that's discrediting, fine. I don't give Pac much credit for the ODLH victory either.

    I also pointed out that neither he nor his team mentioned Inoue, who if he's serious about chasing greatness and ATG status, Inoue would fast track him.

    An Inoue victory is worth more than Roman and Estrada combined. YOU KNOW THIS.

    I’m a proud Filipino, but I’m also a proud Asian-American as well. It’s always great seeing an Asian fighter seen as one of the best, and that includes Inoue.

    No one is denying that Cuadras or SSR weren’t old and past it. It might come as a surprise to you but I was actually rooting for SSR to pull off the upset since I’ve always liked him as a fighter. Bam looked so impressive in beating him that it was only a matter of time for people to take notice.

    I don’t deny that beating Inoue wouldn’t propel him to ATG status. But the likelihood of that happening is slim seeing where both guys are going. Bam already said he was gonna move back down and Inoue is going to continue moving up. That doesn’t mean that Bam still can’t be an ATG without fighting Inoue. Stop thinking that all roads leads to just Inoue.

    Too soon.

    Rodriguez is a guy who can still fight at 112 and Inoue is talking about going to 122 after unifying.

    In a couple of years though as Rodriguez fills out, it could be a super fight.

    Size ain't the issue. Bam's a massive weight drainer, but his youth allows him the ability to do so without being compromised.

    He looked like he had 10 pounds on SSR and he would dwarf Roman and JFE. I'd say he's even bigger than Inoue on fight night.

    But it doesn't matter because he, his team, and Eddie didn't even dare mention Inoue's name. They ain't looking to have Bam get knocked out.

    Watch the video with one less liter of tequila in your system. Bam is clearly the bigger fighter. Any denial of this is a substance-driven conclusion.

    Inoue
    Too soon for the kid.
    But it will be interesting watching him develop into a future threat that is for sure.

    The fight. What were you watching? Bam clearly has a bigger frame and looked like the bigger man.

    If you say so...

    Also, you do realise how big 10 extra lbs would look on guys that small right?

    Assuming Rungvisai, himself a big Super Fly, who recently fought at 120, is in the low 120s on fight night, you think Rodriguez was around 130 or more in the ring?
    Seriously?

    Yup. He looked massive next to SSR.

    And what do you mean if I say so? Video doesn't lie. When they come together, it's pretty obvious that Bam was the bigger guy.

    I can't believe you are asking this question. It would be a brutal beatdown by Inoue. Not even close, imo.
