Inoue-Donaire II

Is Tuesday and I'm just realizing .

Final thoughts?

I'd have to fancy Inoue to stop Dona this time around.

 

Inoue is gonna stretch him. Donaire won’t be able to cope at this stage of his career with that power.

 

Ref bailed donaire out last time or he woulda been kod

 

I used to think so, but I rewatched it last Sunday and honestly I don't think those few seconds made much of a difference. Inoue landed some massive shots shortly after and Donaire recovered well. I think he'd have seen the end even if the ref hadn't gotten in the way.

 

Inoue should beat Donaire convincingly this time around. He’s got more to lose though so he needs to look impressive and finish Donaire.

 

REED Adores Naoya Inoue, But This Fight SCARES REED for Some Reason…

Yes, Nonito’s OLDER, But He’s Also Naturally BIGGER, One of the Better Lower Weight PUNCHERS Historically, Rocked Inoue a Time or 2, CUT Him and FRACTURED His Orbital Bone…

REED Absolutely WANTS Inoue to Win, But This is a More Dangerous Fight, in REED’s Opinion, Than it is to Most…

If Donaire had a better right, he'd have knocked Inoue out last time. He found a home for his cross-counter over Inoue's jab in the eighth and it hurt him. He landed two more in following up as Inoue tried to fend him off with his jab. He then tried to go crazy with his left hook and let Inoue recover.

I doubt he gets the win on Tuesday, but a prime Donaire would've stopped Inoue IMO.

 

Yeah, Inoue would be fucked against the young Donaire who blitzed Montiel.

 

If Donaire does win, is he a top ten bantam?

 

Inoue - 118
Donaire - 117.8

 

Inoues eye still looks fucked up

 

Yeah it does

 

If Donaire wins somehow then he should be a first ballot HOF.

 

I think there's a shout for a top ten Bantam if Donaire wins.

 

He's already a first ballot HOFmer

 

You guys watching Inoue’s little brother’s fight?

 

ESPN is ridiculous with their Top Rank bias.

They made a list of the 2022 HOF inductees and made it seem like Cotto is the headliner over Roy.

On what fucking planet can Cotto even wash Roy's trunks?? Cotto's merely "very good" ass should be honored if Roy even sat next to him.

Damnnnn they suck the dick of Arum's guys!

 

DAMN!

Best performance of Inoue's career.

 

Inoue P4P #1

 

wow Inoue looked sensational, in my opinion hes #1 p4p. destroyed a great first ballot hof in 2 rds....just wow

 

what I love about him is how calm and collective he is. nothing wreckless. doesn't waste any punches, short crisp calculated power shots. It's rare to see a guy with that kind of power with the skill to match.

 

The winner of Crawford-Spence is clearly deserving of that title.

 

Give Inoue his flowers today pal. They havent fought nor even signed to fight. RIGHT NOW, Inoue is #1 P4P.

 

Until Crawford-Spence, Usyk is the P4P #1. Inoue is the second best fighter in the world IMO, after Crawford.

He looked a million bucks in there tonight. He'd changed up his strategy and it worked. He didn't offer up his jab, he kept his hands high and countered Donaire who's never been good at coming forward. Then his ferocity in the second was vintage, focussed Inoue. It reminded me of the days where everyone would be hyped as fuck coz he was destroying world champions in two rounds.

I think if you wanted to show everything both positive and negative about Inoue head-to-head, you'd show them the two fights with Donaire.

 

exactly last I heard Spence claims Crawford hasn't agreed to shit and is delaying the fight. Hard to make a fight between two divas with an ego the size of Texas. neither guy wants to be B side. I'm starting to wonder if one or both are scared of each other.

 

I have no problem with Having Crawford, Inoue or Usyk at number 1 and an argument could be made for either guy. The reason I lean more towards Inoue is that he's so dominant. I don't buy that Usyk is the best HW and IF he gets past AJ(big IF) there's still Fury who imo would Destroy Usyk.

 

Usyk needs another big win over a different opponent.

 

Everyone is caught up in the moment, so no one will agree with this right now, but I think Crawford is a better fighter than Inoue... as an overall package.

Inoue is hands down the best offensive fighter in the sport.

 

P4P is the best current performer. Crawford's resume and activity is subpar. Usyk only has one big win and even if he beats Joshua again, outboxing Joshua isn't enough evidence to be #1.

 

Usyk, not a fan of his at all, but I would honestly say Usyk is probably better than Inoue. The latter is far more compelling to watch due to his power, but Usyk sadly is more effective.

Loma? Everyone knows, I think he's one of the most overrated fighters to ever put on gloves. If they were the same natural weight, I would pick Inoue to lay Loma flat, and I wouldn't think twice about it.

Loma's ungodly overrated.
