Tapales down end of 4th from a left hook to the head. Really brave effort to stand and trade with the Monster, but the power difference is way too great.

And amazingly Tapales is still trading in there to the end of the 5th.

Unreal toughness from Marlon, how’s he taking those shots? Bodyshots troubling Inoue?

Tap is tough. He’s giving it a go.

Will Inoue get the KO?

Doing way better then Fulton.
If Tapales had more power, this could've been dangerous for Inoue.

Tap down and out round 10 from a big right hand. What an effort, though!

Inoue is just too overpowered. What a guy.
I can't believe he is already undisputed again.

Respect to Tapales. I hope he is doing good in the future.

tapales looked to me like he kept going back and forth between deciding to fight in survival mode to hear the bell, and between being embolded to go for it. lost every round for me but i think it was a good showing given wwhat tools he had. he was very conscious of being to inoue's left side as much as possible

but he can’t call himself truly undisputed until he’s cleared things up with Paul Butler
