Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue | ESPN - July 25, 2023
Re: Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue | ESPN - July 25, 2023
Lost a bundle on Fulton and I don't even mind-Inoue is true greatness. He beats Wilfredo Gomez at 122 and only Eder Jofre is on a par at 118.

Completely dominated his ass and knocked him out. I feel bad for Fulton now.
That's the guy who went 12 rounds with Figueroa and didn't even get knocked down. Crazy.
Whatever happens on saturday, and no disrespect to EJ or Bud, but this guy is without any doubt the best fighter on the planet.
The only guy who can top that is Usyk by beating the scared kitten named Fury, if Big Belly finds his balls in the meantime.

Definitely top 3 p4p. What's next for Inoue. Nery? Casemiro? Tapales? Figueroa? Wood? I don't see anyone dealing with him for a while.

Re: Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue | ESPN - July 25, 2023
Well, seems like the fighters already agreed to make the undisputed fight happen in November.
I trust those guys, unlike the fighters from havier weight-classes.
Two time undisputed champ inside a year sounds unbelievable...
That would make him one of the best fighters EVER.
Re: Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue | ESPN - July 25, 2023
Well IF he beats Tapales then wins 4 belts @ FW in the style he's done tonight, he's up there with the AT P4Ps 

Re: Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue | ESPN - July 25, 2023
Didn't see that. Good news then. Unify and move on up. He could probably unify featherweight within 18 months aswell.SendoTakeshi wrote: ↑25 Jul 2023, 09:24Well, seems like the fighters already agreed to make the undisputed fight happen in November.

Re: Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue | ESPN - July 25, 2023
Naoya deserves #1 p4p, very impressive performance against the best guy in the division after moving up 2 weight divisions. What surprised me most is he really didn't look small compared to Fulton in the fight. I thought there would be a clear size difference and one reason I figured the fight would be close.

You don't see that kind of thing happening to a skillful double world champion like Fulton everyday.
Inoue is no mere puncher.
Ask Fulton.
That performance must make him P4P no 1 if he wasn't that already.

Inoue is the real deal. He ain't a fake a.ss, hype job with a padded record. Inoue is very disciplined and he is training like a monster.
Well done Inoue!
Tapales next, please!

Indeed, Inoue is very skillful and he feels/reads very well his opponent. There are levels in boxing and Inoue is stellar.Thomastearns wrote: ↑25 Jul 2023, 10:57 You don't see that kind of thing happening to a skillful double world champion like Fulton everyday.

I am seriously impressed. Fulton is not only some guy at higher weightclass. He was clear number 1 at 122, proven, undefeated, at his very prime. What Inoue just did:
Clearly outboxed skilled boxer
Ate his punches without flinch
Delivered brutal stoppage.
This fight remind me Pacquiao vs Cotto, just even more impressive.

There will be an error code if you try to give Fulton more then one round. That might be the reason in your case.CMCanavessi wrote: ↑25 Jul 2023, 14:13 Why can't I score the bout on boxrec? Anyone else unable to do that?

What a beast, undefeated 4 division champ in 25 bouts.
If he hadn’t bypassed flyweight he’d have 5 weight classes covered
