Naoya Inoue vs Murodjon Akhmadalie

[Master]

Coming a day after Canelo Alvarez takes on Terence Crawford, the No.2 ranked pound-for-pound fighter takes on 14-1 Uzbekistani Akhmadaliev.

The bout will be the prolific Inoue’s third of four in 2025, having stopped Ramon Cardenas in eight rounds in May, and Kim Ye-joon in four rounds in January.

Akhmadaliev’s only career defeat came against Marlon Tapales via a split decision in 2023, but outside of that ‘MJ’ is a danger, with 11 knockouts to boast.

Up until the Tapales loss, Akhmadaliev had defended his WBA and IBF junior featherweight titles three times with wins over Ryosuke Iwasa, Jose Velasquez and Ronny Rios.

He’s also firmly put that one defeat behind him, going 3-0 since with his opponents lasting no more than eight rounds.

This 12 round WBA Super World Super Bantamweight Championship fight takes place on September 14.

It will be held in Inoue’s home country of Japan, specifically the newly built Aichi International Arena in Nagoya.

Ring walks for the main event in Japan are scheduled for 1pm UK time, with undercard action starting as early as 8am.

This fight is an excellent contest that has gone under the radar of Canelo v Crawford.

This is a great watch.

Murodjon Akhmadalie looks huge!

[Spicoli]

Top Rank must be in serious trouble or in a major transition of ownership. Absolutely insane to have the #1-2 fighter in the world with basically TBA exposure and zero platform just 3 days prior to the fight. With Arum at the helm, who has been promoting since the Johnson administration , it's shocking that all this time they have had no secondary plan lined up and cannot get in line on messaging.

Inoue is very respectful and outboxing MJ so far.

[Master]

Inoue wins UD 9-3, and 10-2 twice. He made it look easy but it was hard work because Akhmadalie is a big puncher with a tough chin.

Picasso is lined up next in December and Nakatani next year in a huge event in Japan.

Inoue controlled the fight from first minute, he dominated Akhmadaliev and he wasn't in any trouble. More than that, he proved he's not just a puncher but he is a very good technicien and showed an excelent footwork. On the other hand Akhmadaliev didn't impressed me, he look pretty stiff , no head movement and slow.
I scored 120 - 108 !
