Shame on Ryan, Shame on Haney, Shame on Lopez, Shame on Canelo.

I came into the Inoue Vs Cardenas fight like this



My prayers were answered. So thanks for saving us Naoya, you were our last hope for the weekend.​

Inoue truly is boxing Yokozuna. He's like Pac-Man with less Christianity.

“Hajime no Ippo” and “Ashita no Joe" are two of Japan's biggest selling mangas





Inoue is almost as big as both of them in Japan. For those who don't know these manga series sell about 60 million copies each. To put that into perspective you probably have to sell 15 thousand book copies to get on the Amazon best sellers list. Manga's sell by the truckload in Asia and as I say Inoue is close to as big as them

I didn't realize Baseball is the national sport in Japan, I didn't know and they're the best in the world at it. I thought it was America but American ain't are barely even in the top five

Anyway four belts on the line, and Inoue was out here fighting like a madman — all aggression, risk, and skill. Pure insanity. What a show. A true entertainer. Hat's off to Cardenas too man he's a DAWG. Warrior vs Warrior.. no running no dancing no hugging just fighting till the end..real boxing
​
I loved how Inoue handled being knocked down - he didn't rush to his feet and try to pretend it didn't hurt, he just went straight to business, took his time, gathered himself, stood up and went back to work. That's champion stuff. Too many fakes who jump straight up and pretend like it was nothing then get KO'd
​
And even though Inoue is responsible for more liver damage than alcoholism.​ He is also the cleanest fighter out there. No elbows, low blows, headbutts, just clean shots and straight heart
Very good and informative post. The only thing I could add is that "The Monster" is one of the busiest champions, if not the busiest, of the new era. He became one of my favorite fighters long time ago, and like Tito, I have had him no. 1 p4p for a very long time since Ginger was wrongfully crowned.
