agree. two guys seeking greatness. stephen a two belt unified champion travelling to japan to take on the unbeaten, former undisputed bantamweight champion & naoya facing an unbeaten two belt unified champion in his first fight at the weight above. no a side b side nonsense, no deadlines, purse demands & weight conditions. just two guys wanting to fight the best around. question: going by the latest ring pound for pound, who would you consider the better win, stephen over naoya, devin over loma or teo over josh? or vice versaQuote:

Inoue is going up in weight to fight an elite, undefeated fighter.

This is a big one.
And like you said, @TIC no "A" side "B" side nonsense... no weight conditions... and I'd add no diva demands, and no drama. Just two guys wanting to fight.
Refreshing.
for me if stephen wins it's the better win but it's very close for me if loma beats devin. devin is also unbeaten & undisputed, he's also huge for the weight class. loma is on the wrong side of his prime, after a long amateur career & a few recent injuriesQuote:

Tough ask for Lomachenko.
For me, Fulton beating Inoue would be the better win.Quote:

2 because unlike Loma and Josh, there has never been a sniff of him losing a fight ever.
Fulton's big clash against Inoue will take place on Tuesday, July 25.
Ring-walks will get going from around 11.30am BST.
Inoue vs Fulton will be held at the Ariake Arena in Tokyo, Japan.
I think Fulton wins the early rounds
Inoue comes on late, landing & possibly hurting Fulton, he might even score a knockdown
Fulton bites down & makes it the the final bell
I can see Fulton winning a 114-113 type decision
you could be right, i don't see it going that way but i do see stephen lasting the distance. jr featherweights champions seem to have the lead in match-ups against former bantamweight champions though, so you could be onto somethingQuote:
