Inoue not just king p4p but he’s a king of KO and elite master boxer
This man is a MENACE. Hopefully that next fight for the other belt happens this year, cause it looks like it was a closed deal from the way Tapales talked to Inoue in the ring
Yes, I’m looking forward to seeing a lot more of the “Monster”.
Inoue proved once again there are levels in boxing. I believe we are watching a legend in the making, he is just that good. Great review of the fight man, cheers.
Thank you! I appreciate the feedback!
He the bruce lee of boxing
He’s a special talent. That’s for sure!
You are absolutely correct, every Inoue opponent was getting beat up badly by Inoue, he’s the Bruce Lee of boxing
annoying how people randomly bring up bruce lee just because Inoue an Asian boxer. Imagine i call every great black UFC fighter the Michael Jai White of MMA. lol
I expected Inoue to win but hated to see Fulton go out like that.
I knew Inoue was the favorite but I thought it would be much more competitive. That’s why Inoue deserves so much praise.
Don't think Inoue gives a rat's ass who is p4p king....that's something for the fans to worry about. Inoue wants to set a legacy and make some money while doing it.
Look closely cause Inoue did not follow through with that overhand right as he usually does. He snapped it back. Power is real.
PfP is not just based on the wins stats. It should be based on how dominate are those wins. KO ration should be the main criteria. This is why Mayweather is not at the top of the PfP ranking. Inoue has the highest KO percentage, higher than Usyk or Crawford.
Thanks for the feedback!
mayweather is not at the top of p4p rankings because hes retired.....lol p4p ranking is for active fighters not retired ones. lol
@@teovu5557 where did I ever say “mayweather was at the top of the present pound for pound rankings”??? I Never said that…not sure where you got that from. I said Mayweather is a legendary all time great, like Pacquiao, Mike Tyson, Ali…etc.
@@derdevisionsportsRemember Mayweather is not an undisputed champion nor have a high K.O. ratio unlike INOUE! that amazing feat of NAOYA achieving all those Titles in different weight divisions in just a short span of time, as if he was steamrolling all oppositions one by one!because of his race & RACiSM around the world which was endured & experienced of the late great BRUCE LEE! If NAOYA is Caucasian or Black he will praised & adored by many fans around the world!
Great video man! Thanks for not being biased bro! You got a new subscriber! And the fight was sooo good and the performance was unreal that even Mayweather's ceo leonard Ellerbe became an instant fan! Lmao! And as for inoue's ceiling! He was doing an interview sometime last year, he said he's gonna campaign at 122 for a bit and depending how his body feels, he might make it cap out at 126! He says moving up too much weight will make him lose his speed and power! He said his frame is too small! Even tank wants to fight inoue but says inoue is too small! So, that's s shame that he can't make it to 130 or 135 for the big fights! I would love to see inoue fight tank, pitbull cruz, shakur, loma! Maybe ryan garcia and devin haney! But, like inoue said his body can only go up so much weight before he loses the power and speed!
Thanks for the feedback my friend! I get it, his frame can only hold so much weight before before it starts to effect his speed and stamina. Thing is I don’t see any real challenges for him at this point until he would get to 130-135… he’s gonna run out of people to clobber. He’s gonna get board quick without going to 130. Will be interesting to see where he goes from here. Thanks again!
@derdevisionsports I really hope he becomes undisputed by the end of this year and then move up to 126! He even said after the fulton fight that he wants to stay at 122 for 3 years to get his body adjusted to the weight! That'll be a shame cause inoue said so himself that he wants to retire at the age of 35 so that's another 5 more years we get to see his greatness! So, he probably won't make it to 130, 135 within the 5 year mark if he keeps fighting like this!
@@billychan6368 very true! Unifying 122 and 126 would be amazing accomplishments and will keep him busy for a while.
@@billychan6368 look how long it took Loma to move up and Inoue is a similar age at the time and Loma is by far the smallest guy at 135.. Imoue is smaller than Donaire
@@snoopythedog3266 Great point. Thank you for the feedback!
You create a Channel having good things to say, and there's always got to be some idiot comments. What is wrong with people today? However you sound like me talking. I picked up on Inoue after the Hernandez fight and Joe French was his coach at the time. French was blown away. Hernandez, the Champion, couldn't touch Inoue. And to be honest, it was similar to the Fulton fight. Been watching him since and it's been mind blowing. French has been saying for years now that Inoue is the best Fighter on the planet and that he does everything perfectly
Thanks for the feedback. That’s what I’m saying. It’s more about Inoue being a great fighter than every world champion he beats ends being “trash” because they lost to Inoue. I respect the opinion of all tho. Thanks again!!
Pundits keep moving him up in weight is crazy. He’s only 5’5 and that’s never going to change. Plus he has a small frame. Smh.
For sure… I get your point. But the guy is so good it’s kinda hard not including him in some “dream fight” scenarios. I think him being undisputed at 122 and 126 will be great accomplishments and great challenges. That’ll keep him busy for a while.
I think he's 5'4 at the most but doesn't have a big frame that he just has to fill out. Manny was 122 at age 20, Inoue has just made 122 at age 30
@@snoopythedog3266 great point! I think him going for unified at 122 and 126 will be great accomplishments to retire on. 4 time unified??? If he can pull that off (and I think he can) he’ll have a special place in boxing history.
The reason they want that is to see him lose or get KO’d, the hate is real lol.
@@lons5472 I think at this point even the “haters’ have to admit that he’s a bad dude tho…. Right?
I thought this was always going to be an uphill battle for Fulton, as Inoue is not only a superior ring general, but let's face it... going into this fight, one guy had a water pistol, and the other guy had a bazooka... and you could see that Fulton felt that power early too... so not only is Inoue skilled and possessing truly rare, 1-punch KO power, he's also very "tough" as was demonstrated in the first fight with Nonito, where he fought most the fight with a broken orbital bone, which is a horrible injury that has caused many a tough warrior to call it a night... the rematch left no doubt... aside from that, he hasn't really been tested yet... FWIW, I have either him or Crawford as p4p, No. 1... no argument here with either, but Bud did kind of trump Inoue by beating an undefeated and well respected champion in Spence, with relative ease... that, to me, bumps him up to no. 1, YMMV... and hell, should "The Feel" ever fight and beat Tyson Fury, then you've got to consider him as well, IMO
Yes. I agree. FYI: Crawford fought Spence a few days after this video was posted. That was a week of spectacular boxing by those two.
Crawford fought a recent survivor of a violent car crash that happened with Spence, got hospitalized for weeks or more of injuries, & since that you can question his fitness for that fight with Crawford!
Monster is my favourite
He’s special!!
Monster vs Pitbull now that gonna be 🔥🔥🔥
That’s a great fight!
When you block, yes it does little damage compared to a direct hit. But if he hits hard, your body feels it.. and now you are thinking twice
Fultons biggest mistake was putting Inoues integrity into question. For a culture based around pride and integrity, it's the worst thing to do. They value integrity way too much in many aspects of their culture. But to bring Inoues integrity into question by saying he could be wrapping his hands improperly to gain an advantage is a thing a Japanese person who isn't doing so will take extremely personally
Yes. Good point. Thank you for the feedback!
That left hook was the aaaaaaaa tax😂
Great analysis. I am a nobody, but I really hope he caps at 130 max. Get undisputed at 122, again at 126, and finish at 130. It really is possible 4 division undisputed. That money in Japan gonna be calling those champs at 126 and 130 just like Fulton did. Fulton a multi millionaire with that one fight. Money talks.
Thanks for the feedback. I agree! There are some great fights out there for him. Thanks again!
フルトンも、左フックカウンター、レバーブローを打たせない闘い方をして、プルカウンターの威力も殺して上手いディフェンスをしたと思った。
Thank you for the feedback!!
Monster !!!!
He’s the real deal!!
Fulton is not elite. I think you're just repeating what you hear on media outlets. I watched him fight. First of all, his resume is not impressive. Go click on those fighter's fights. His title was a vacant title when he won, fighters he fought are inactive and not fighting anymore. The only fight worthwhile is the Figueroa fight and he lost that fight. Figueroa is a forward guy with no defense and it was complicated for him. He has not fought Luis Nery, Akhmadaliev, Casimero or even Raseem Aleem to be considered great. When he beats these guys then he can be in the talks. And finally to prove this guy is overhyped and overrated, he lost worse than any of Inoue's previous boxers.
Thanks for your opinion. In my opinion he is elite and that’s based on my analysis. I don’t pay attention to, repeat or give a rat’s ass what anybody else says or thinks. Thats why I’m giving Inoue so much credit, because he moved up and easily beat a world class fighter. That’s a great accomplishment and doesn’t diminish who Stephen Fulton is or what he accomplished (undefeated, unified world champion) All of a sudden acting like Fulton is no good because Inoue beat him only disrespects and diminishes the great performance and accomplishment that Inoue put forth. Thanks for the feedback.
@@derdevisionsports agreed there's always those. I never thought Spence was the greatest boxer either, got fed chow by PBC so never grew and only had 2 fights since 2019 ... but regardless anyone that thinks Crawford didn't putting on a stunning performance to beat a very good but not great fighter is an idiot. Crawford was so complete and Spence never once stopped giving it his all and his power was still dangerous until the fight was stopped
@@snoopythedog3266 yeah, what Crawford did was amazing and regardless we can’t act like Spence wasn’t that dude. For Bud to do what he did to Spence in that fashion shows you how great he really is. Thanks for the feedback!
I think he's elite but he's not an Inoue or a Crawford. Those 2 are just in a league of their own.
@@stevenc7877 yes I agree. There are levels to this for sure but what people have to understand is that if you’ve made it to world champion status, unified at that - no matter the weight division that automatically qualifies you as elite. Simple…. regardless of the “opinions” of others that achievement stands on its own and says it all. Some goofies might not get it but it’s self explanatory. Thanks for the feedback.
Here's a link to watch most of his knockouts from when he turned pro at 19 fighting at 108 and won a belt then moved up to 115 and won a belt there and then defended his belt like 6, 7 fights? Before he moved to 118 to become undisputed recently in December only to relinquish all 4 belts to move up to 122 to fight the smoke in fulton which is the best fighter in the 122 division and beat him and now he wants to fight Marlon tapales for the other 2 belts to become undisputed by the end of the year? That's why inoue is my fave fighter and number 1 pfp fighter! He is the monster!

Thank you for sharing!!
@derdevisionsports no worries man! Sharing is caring! And I think it's missing either 2 or 3 of his most recent knockouts! But, that I could find for you!

@@billychan6368 thanks again!
Inoue WAS pound for pound best for a matter of days until Bud Crawford destroyed Spence in the mega fight for his second undisputed title. Crawford is the world's best pound for pound fighter right now. It is what it is.
Bud looked great. Made it look easy beating the great Earl Spence. Last week was a great week of boxing!! Just dropped a video praising Terence Bud Crawfords greatness. Check it out!

@@derdevisionsports Will do. Thanks and keep up the good work.
@@jamesbond-xl3xs thank you sir! Appreciate the feedback.
@@derdevisionsports Absolutely brother. Much success on the channel. Love to see your take on Shakur and Devin as well as Tank and their futures. Even a possible Inoue and Tank matchup in the future if at all possible. Respect.
maybe ... toss up between them I think
