    Japan once again closing out the year with their fighters fighting but this time in Saudi Arabia. This will be like a can of air refresher after seeing the AJ vs Paul fight. Most will be expecting Inoue and Nakatani to win and if all things go well we could see a Inoue and Nakatani showdown in the near future.

    Wonder if Inoue's Bam talk is just for negotiations with Nakatani

    Hopefully...

    REED Doesn't Like the Idea of Bam vs Inoue @ All, For Bam's Sake...But Knowing Cool Boy Steph Made $3MIL in the Process, Bam Probably Couldn't Resist What He'd Stand to Earn for Facing the "Monster" Himself...


    REED:eek:

    Bam vs Inoue would be an awesome fight, but I think it's inevitably gonna be quite one sided in Inoue's favour.

    It Doesn't End Well for Bam if They Meet Anytime in the Next Year or 2...

    @REEDsART will you be rooting heavily for garcia based solely on his name?

    REED Thought About It, But It's Been 40 YEARS or So Since He Could Make the 115lb Limit...

    That is the million dollar question

    Garcia vs Teraji:

    Will he ball, tho?

    or

    Will he bald, tho?

    Balding doesn't preclude balling so, uhm maybe.

    Turns out it's actually

    Will he bail tho?

    Bad news from Riyadh: IBF 115 titleholder Willibaldo Garcia's defense vs. Kenshiro Teraji was canceled after the ceremonial weigh-in. He still had to make the IBF weight check and was struggling & fell ill & had to be hospitalized. #boxing

    He was caught stacking his wraps before the fight and had to redo them.

    Junto in a war with Hernandez while Inoue completely schooled Picasso. Yeah I think the Inoue vs Nakatani fight has lost a bit of luster. Inoue also calling out Bam as well.

    No special wraps and he goes to a decision. He really is a 122 lb Trinidad

    He ends up having to rewrap at the 7 min mark. Going the distance now in his past two fights. He's moving up so it's expected that he loses power but he was pound for pound in the punching department. It's not like he hasn't had fights outside Japan. But boxing is bent at it's core. If a fighters team/promotors etc can get away with stacking, they will do it every time in my opinion.

    Do you think Inoue was trying to cheat or was this just another Fulton situation where the opposing team tried to play mind games with Inoue? Inoue going the distance in his last 2 fights only proves that he doesn’t need to rely on power to win his fights.

    They were stacking gauze and told they can't do that and to rewrap from what I saw. No doubting his skills but his power has to be a bit suspect right now until further fights. If he has a power outage and is going the distance from now on, it's not a good look.
