    Disagree. He's a beast who's hyped for good reason.

    What's your opinion on Payano? Didn't watch it, but him getting dumped in his last bout is a concern, as is being knocked down by Rau'shee Warren...who, while not a bad over all fighter isn't much of a puncher...

    if he had stayed at 115 and fought the best instead of runnin to 118 to beat a aging champ I wouId agree.

    Run away? You do realize he was being ducked at 115 which is why he moved up right? Or do you prefer him take the lil g route, where you just fight bums and cry about how people are ducking you. If you're being ducked, move the **** up.

    :lol:

    Payano isn't like some hopeless 100/1 underdog, he's world class...

    But yeah, probably Inoue by early savage KO. :thumbsup:

    Rau'shee has some sneaky power. He floored Zhakiyanov too. In short. I think he's pretty good but is just in over his head against a very special fighter.

    Show me proof that anyone at 115 wanted to fight him. You said he ran away from 115 right? So that must mean people have been calling him out and trying to make a fight.

    While I lean Inoue late KO, I think Payano might give him hell for a few rounds, stylistically, this isn't going to be an easy fight for Inoue, and in all likelihood McDonnell had outgrown the division, he was literally corpse like at the weigh in, it wouldn't shock me if this went the distance, and Inoue won close on points. I really rate Payano.

    I call it running aaway because 115 had 3-4 names at the time he ran away. 118 was weak with a old dominate champ who wasn't even that good

    I don't think the corpse argument holds weight.

    McDonnell has looked like a corpse in almost every weigh-in video I can find. Inoue is just LEVELS above him and would destroy any version of him. McDonnell might have suffered on weigh-in days, but he reaped the benefits fight night being far bigger than his opponents.

    I haven't seen much of Payano, but he does have a win over Warren who I rate, and I think Warren would give Inoue some problems. Tete is probably the hardest fight for Inoue. I really want to see that one.
