Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue | Sky Sports - 25 July 2023

[Ruthless-RKO]

Perfect name for the perfect boxer.

[mickey1975]

He figured out the African American style alright in the end.

[skanksta]

What's that comin' over the hill....?

Almost a one punch KO, devastating finish. Fulton didn't really have a chance and he's good.

[Nightmare Roy]

A lot had this a 50/50 before where does he go now?

[gregregegg]

goneeee.

fvck inoue is my p4p1.

Moving up a division to fight the top dog, dominating ever round, stopping it in 7 rounds (at lil weights). that is silly impressive.

[Gran Hermano]

Impeccable performace. He's the best boxer in the world and it's not even close

[handsofstone]

Monster by name Monster by nature, that was a domination against a bigger undefeated unified champion, Inoue was aggressive but still cautious enough not to get carried away, thought his jab was immense, the way he stepped in with it, hurtful, came over with the sharp right hand, let the hands go on combinations sometimes, Fulton was a bit passive and was focused too much on defense and he did make Inoue miss a lot as well but he was falling a mile behind

As soon as Inoue hurt Fulton and dropped him in the 8th you knew it was curtains, he hurt him with a right and the follow up left hook looked a finisher, Fulton just about made count but his legs were all but gone, no way was Inoue letting him off the hook, he trapped Fulton in the corner and rained down shots until it was stopped

A modern great

[Boxerbeetle]

Can’t even fault Fulton really, just nothing he could do. At least he didn’t come out with earmuffs for 12 rounds and purely try to survive.

[golden_labrador]

is 130 a step too far in the future? imagine Tank vs. Inoue.

[giacomino]

Ridiculously accurate and fight-changing power. IMO he’s been the best fighter in boxing for a few years but a lot of fans haven’t paid attention because he fights at the lower weights

[Nightmare Roy]

is 130 a step too far in the future? imagine Tank vs. Inoue.

Tank is a big fan of his, thinks he's brilliant

[handsofstone]

He figured out the African American style alright in the end.

African Americans are the biggest racists on boxing Twitter, don't even try to hide it, I like Fulton seems like a good egg and he dared to be great but I'm taking some serious satisfaction seeing the African American boxing community in hell, well the many racist ones anyway, fckn drink it in

[skanksta]

is 130 a step too far in the future? imagine Tank vs. Inoue.

Yes.
He could beat quite a few 130 pounders obviously, but never Tank.
I doubt he'd beat The Welsh Wizard. Robeisy would be a great fight @ FW, but no further.

Realistically it's Unify @ SBW.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Tapales next please.

WBA already said he can fight the winner

[whatashambles]

Tapales next please.

WBA already said he can fight the winner

Probably December

[gregregegg]

A lot had this a 50/50 before where does he go now?

Think 122 undisputed should be the immediate goal (probs on the 31st december this year..)

is that Tapalas for undisputed? or did that uzbek have a rematch clause.... (might happly step aside having seen that)...

I really want/wanted estrada and choclatito but i think those days are gone.

Leigh wood 126?

Emanuel Navarrete 130.... (or tank...)

Fvck who knows.

[NoScoutingReports]

Inoue is built DIFFERENT, what a fighter he is. Power, precision, speed, footwork, chin, the lot. Did think Fulton would prove to be a stern test but what a performance. That jab to the body with the follow up right hand on the button will be on many a highlight reel, fantastic. Who next I wonder..

[Nightmare Roy]

Da finish

[maverick23]

Inoue might be my favourite fighter.

Becomes undisputed and then jumps up and fights the guy most people is number 1 for 2 belts. Now seemingly has a shot at being undisputed in another weight division.

If only other weight divisions and fighters had it that simple.

He will probably get the undisputed fight easy enough, he generates so much money, I read Fulton got $2m mega bucks for the little guys.

[coneye]

Take note Fury , on how to be great , once again the little guys show hkw to put it on the line

[Ruthless-RKO]

[tonyevs]

Monster!

[cormack]

great point - commentator said inoue had had 20 back to back title fights which would include many mandatories .

Whilst fury fights his mate delboy and now a wrestler :

[Gran Hermano]

Would be a fight for the ages that one. Let him go up to 126 after beating Tapales and face Ramirez (another great fight, hoping not a coincidence he was on this card) then hopefully he can set up a fight against Davis in a couple of years.
