[jvincent]

He looked like the condemned man before the bell

He did, Wish id have waited before betting. It was a big punt though to be fair.

[jamamb]

mcdonell absolutely destroyed in 1

[MightyWarrior]

It’s rare you’ll see such a badly prepared world champion make a feeble defence like that

[Ruthless-RKO]

Funny how Sky mention him looking awful at the weigh in now!

Too right

[jamamb]

that weak jab was never gonna hold inoue back

[MightyWarrior]

Darren Barker ...says Inoue hasn’t boxed at Jamie’s level

I really hope they didn’t fly Darren Barker all the way to Japan for that

[tobyh5]

Commentators immediately blaming Jamie being weight drained.

When our guys lose there is an excuse for something being wrong with them rather than it being something superior from the other guy.

When our guys win it is always because they are better

[jamamb]

inoue might be the most explosive fighter today. he just rips those shots with great speed, snap, and power.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Surely McD is getting flattened here ..

Quicker than expected?

[Cholo_cws]

Matt Christie excellent - but that intro showing how devasted she was by the death of Ingle and..( looks down at her notes ) Dean Francis

Yes, I noticed that. Hope she can make it through the duration of the show.

Inoue Blows Out McDonnell in 1st Round to Win Bantamweight Title

Naoya Inoue wasted no time overwhelming Jamie McDonnell with his vaunted power Friday night in Tokyo.

Japan’s Inoue showed McDonnell immediately why he is nicknamed “Monster.” He knocked down the defending bantamweight champion twice in less than two minutes and won their bantamweight title bout by first-round knockout at Ota City General Gymnasium.

Inoue opened up to McDonnell’s body about 40 seconds into their fight. His attack moved McDonnell into the ropes and made him cover up.

Inoue wobbled McDonnell about 1:20 into the bout by landing a left hook to the side of McDonnell’s head. Approximately 10 seconds later, Inoue sent McDonnell to the canvas with a left hook to the body.

McDonnell made it to his feet, but Inoue jumped on him quickly. He hurt McDonnell again with a straight right hand, followed it up with a left hook and McDonnell went down again.

Referee Luis Pabon stopped their scheduled 12-round, 118-pound title bout just 1:52 into it as McDonnell hit the canvas for the second time. Inoue won the WBA world bantamweight title from McDonnell.

The 25-year-old Inoue (16-0, 14 KOs) became a world champion in a third weight class in just his 16th professional fight. He previously owned the WBC light flyweight and WBO super flyweight titles.
