People are talking about potential Inoue vs Nakathani and Inoe vs Bam fights, yet nobody is talking about Bam vs Nakathani fight, I can't understand why. This is natural fight to make assuming Bam goes up in weight, and whoever wins it will come into Inoue mega fight with better credentials, bigger name and more leverage in negotiations.
Because Bam-Rod is a scavenger and shameless opportunist who has been rasping the last remaining morsels of flesh off the corpses of 1000 y/o fallen warriors who had nothing left to give and had already died 1000 deaths on the battlefield And because he's petrified of stepping up to Japanese Level and facing young, hungry power punching samurais who are in their primes, not moribund OAPs who are dribbling spittle all over the bibs and talking gibberish to themselves in the care home or decomposing cadavers being eaten by worms in their graves
