Naoya Inoue-Thai with ten different names.
Just to post something up-to-date (and the fact Inoue is mustard) - Inoue had to beat this fella half to death (KO 10). The Thai was hard as nails but couldn't land a glove on Inoue when in the centre of the ring.
Fuck knows what his name is, depends on where you read.

Re: Naoya Inoue-Thai with ten different names.
Fun fight! Inoue bit of showman who doesn't shy away, even excepts punches but the last couple rounds there were best going today. That jab. Tremendous breakdown 101 on a rock opponent who landed his own. I've heard that Thai names have as much to do with where a fighter trains???
Re: Naoya Inoue-Thai with ten different names.
10 KO's in 12 fights down there at the lighter end of the scale is not something to sniff at. Could be on the way to making himself a Japanese ledge. He has nowhere near the number of fights of other belt holders in and around his weight class but at some point his team should have a punt and give him a chance to try and unify. He could end up being the fighting Harada for those growing up now. Early Days but he is pretty good with both hands for an orthodox fighter.

I think it's their actual name, with their porn star name, sponsor and gym name tagged on the end.
