The Monster VS Tank

It is rare in boxing for guys to fight killer after killer. Inoue is special indeed.

 

When he signed with Ohashi he apparently made a private agreement with Ohashi that he would only take easy fights if circumstances forced him to & not by his own choice

In the recent ESPN fight camp video he said that he doesn't have the mental strength for tune up fights & needs max pressure to show his best

Pacquiao fought at Super Bantamweight the day after his 21st birthday.

At 21, Inoue was fighting at Light Flyweight.

That's 4 weight divisions different.

Pacquiao had 1 fight at 150lbs, catchweight between WW and LMW, but otherwise maxed out at WW.

4 x divisions below WW is FW. I suspect Inoue will go as high as FW, maybe SFW, but no higher.

 

Can we stop the talk about Inoue fighting Tank? There are divisions for a reason and Tank is much bigger than Inoue.

I think Inoue will top out at 130. I believe we're going to see him struggle a bit against 126 pounders because some of them will be able to take his punch and keep coming forward. At 118, we saw Inoue lay people out with one punch. Tapales took a lot of shots before breaking down.

At 126, Rafael Espinoza is not going to be an easy fight due to his toughness and style. Neither will Luis Lopez or Figueroa. At 130, his biggest challenge will be Navarrete, and other tall rangy fighters.

 

how many fighters in boxing history have been able to fight in 8 weight classes and skip over another 2?

 

Roid man

 

You are correct, my bad. Not bad company to be in

 

Well if he visits the same pharmacy as Manny he might do it.

 

lol Inoue would get killed

i dont think you guys realise how small Inoue is. Inoue could still fight at 118 but he wanted to chase his dreams of being a 5 weight world champion and to see his younger brother become a world champion which wouldnt be possible if he didnt move up.

 

There's no reason for Wahid to face Inoue.

He should be facing Stevenson and the winner of Loma/Kambosos.

 

Tank looked like a flyweight sparring against Elijah Pierce, a 126lber.

 

You have the gall to call Manny "Roid Man" when he has never ever failed any test or tested with suspect strange results like he was an 80 yr old man. Nor has he had to get the Commission to attempt to clear his name when he was caught red handed CHEATING!!!!! They only succeeded in proving they were as suspect as the cheater they tried to cover for. We all know who I mean don't we Ellerbe ??? lol The only way you clowns try to take the heat off your idols is to try to accuse innocent fighters of cheating. What a sorry lot you are

 

Unconfirmed an unproven Roid man, you mean?

 

Tapales arguably hurt Inoue at points in their fight last week. Inoue needs to be wary of anybody bigger than him - he's never gonna be out skilled but he can be overcome physically in his new weight class imo
