How far will this kid go? I think he KOs Rigondeaux, but loses a war and gets stopped by Chocolatito...
Probably neither. Injury or retirement will bench one or both and Inoue will spend the rest of his career fighting a series of cans.
He's a pretty big guy. Dude looked huge against Narvaez, and he was the one moving up. I think he can end up at featherweight, maybe. Definitely, he has the frame for super bantamweight. Uh, I think featherweight is his absolute limit, though.
He's dad has been spot on with everything so far, and he's said Featherweight will be where he tops out...so I'll go with Shingo on this one.
The ionosphere. Seriously, if he can remotely carry his power up, and even with the relative strength of the divisions around him, he'll clean house. Don't agree Rigo is too big for him. Gonzalez fight would have to happen soon, don't see Inoue sticking around at 115 for long.
He and his team said they want to set a Japanese record for most defenses, and he's hoping to do it at 115. Made weight easily last time out, and he's just started working with nutritionists.
Good to know. Looks too big a frame to stay there long to me. His youth helps I suppose. In which case, bring on Chocolatito
