Naoya Inoue Vs. Juan Francisco Estrada — Who Wins?

Look i know your a big fan of his but the fact is his best win is over an old Donaire, Estrada would be far and away the best opponent Inoue has fought. I want to see Inoue beat more household names before i start putting him on a pedestal. Yes he has talent and yes he's looked impressive beating some solid names, but hes yet to really beat a household name unless you count an old Donaire.

If Inoue beats Estrada all credit to him, he would of beaten one of the best fighters in the sport.

 

Donaire had already been multiple times by Walters, Rigondeaux, Magdaleno, Frampton, in fairly convincing losses when Inoue beat him. It's not like this was the 2011 Donaire who was being hyped up as the next Manny Pacquiao. And the 1st fight with Donaire/Inoue was actually a very competitive fight, and the rematch which was 3 years later was when Donaire was 40 years old.

Again i think people are misunderstanding what i'm saying, i don't dislike Inoue he's actually one of my favourite fighters. But i'm not quite ready to put him on pedestal yet as i would like to see him beat more household names, he's a very talented fighter and has beaten some solid names impressively. But as i said i want to him face the likes of Estrada, then if he dispatches the likes of Estrada impressively i'll be the first one to put him on a pedestal.

 

Read what i said again i clearly pointed out he's a great talent. It's just i would like to see him beat more household names before i put him on a pedestal. There's been plenty of great Bantamweights of the past, has Inoue beat anyone close to the level of Olivares ? Zarate ? Jofre ? Chandler ? Harada ?

Beating the likes of Estrada would go someway to proving his greatness.

 

Simple Estrada is considered one of the best smaller fighters in the sport.

Estrada beat Gonzalez in their 2nd fight he wasn't "comprehensively beaten", and then won the 3rd fight in the most convincing win out of the trilogy in most peoples eyes. Cuadras knocked down Estrada yes but Estrada took over in the 2nd half of the fight, and was the first man to stop Cuadras who is a quality fighter, and would be one of Inoue's best wins had he beat Cuadras.

I'm not saying Inoue wouldn't beat Estrada at any point in their careers, but it would certainly be the best win on Inoue's resume.

Again i don't know why you keep you saying that, i've said countless times Inoue is a fantastic fighter/talent and one of my favourite current fighters at the moment. But i still want to see him beat more household names that's all i've said, he's beat plenty of good/solid names impressively. But he's yet to have his defining fight as of yet for me hopefully he gets it soon.

 

Would have to be catchweight.This will only make Inoue look bad.Catch weight and beating dinosaurs is not a great look.Remember when Pac critized for fighting old washep up fighters and at catchweight.Inoue shouldn’t get a pass.Why do he? Donairesaur was a fossil and even prime he wasn’t that great.Like poster above needs better opps.

 

Rungundeaux is Donairesaur papi.Rungundeaux was running in zig zag pattern all over the ring.It wasn’t because of footwear slippage.Casimero made him act scuured.Never seen Rigo do that in his career.I mean he didnt do that against.Nonaire or Astrolabio.Something about Casimero powar.Donare backing out.Buttler using sonar excuse.Okaho quitting.We’ll they will all get that reality check.

 

Buttler is a buttler for Tete.

 

Weak opps! Stop giving the guy a pass.Weak div with Donairsaur the best available opp.Remember when Pac got slammed for fighting washed up opp.Hoya,Mosley who were 35 or 36.Hell he got smacked hard for beating old Morales, Barrera and Marquez.Why do dis guy get a pass?
