Inoue is just on a whole different level. One of the best boxers I've ever seen. His speed, precision, power and reactions are just unbelievable. To confidently initiate against a counter puncher, and consistently counter his counter punch.....against an opponent at this level...... is just insane. It's such an overused saying, but Naoya Inoue really is one of the most complete fighters I've ever seen. Truly a pleasure to watch.
He’s seems to be several levels below the elite fighters of today (yes, I know where he ranks by different publications, currently). Case in point: the pound for pound “best fighter” championship match last week between Crawford and Spence. This guys is not on that level, objectively. But he’s also a long way from guys like Lomachencko and Shakur Stevenson. Gervonta Davis is probably in the conversation as well, at this point … if he can keep the train on the tracks mentally. He’s a great fighter, but he would have to move up to bigger weight classes like Lomachencko did if he wants to prove he belongs; there’s just never enough elite fighters at those lower weights to determine anything. I remember, not too long ago, everyone hyped up Roman “Chocolatito Gonzalez as maybe being the best fighter in the world (I believe he was pound for pound #1 in many publications). Then he lost, and now no one remembers him, and he has no legacy. Unfortunately, the truth of the matter is … unless you can establish yourself in, at least, the 135 lb division, the public will never consider you a legit great. That is the minimum threshold, I believe. That’s why people like Pacquiao, Mayweather, and Lomachencko all moved up into the money divisions, even though they were smaller fighters.
@@79Glitch as soon you mentioned (establish yourself in, at least, the 135 lb division) i came to disagree your entire point...starting from the lowest division and making your way up is a huge feat. you claming there is no competition lower division...have you thought about how well your boxers in the 135 weight will do in the lower division? i dont think they will be that dominating. youve only seen them at the natural weight(135) and consider them p4p. biasing that p4p needs to be in the 135lb is for casual boxing fans
@@georgeyporgey1104 I was just stating the reality. In both boxing and MMA (who got rid of their 125 weight division btw) there is a well established history of smaller fighters never gaining the fame or credit they deserve (in MMA, Mighty Mouse was considered the pound for pound best for almost a decade, but no one knew who he was or cared because of his weight class. And the knock on him was that they dominated weaker comp, which is technically true). I’ve been watching boxing for over 30 years, and it’s always the same story: There are fewer competitively fighters at the smaller weights, both because fighters at lower weights don’t become famous, but also there are just fewer smaller fighters, and much fewer elite fighters. That’s just a fact. There’s a reason, going back to any of the great legends like Roberto Duran, Cesar Chavez, Oscar De La Hoya… all the way to Pacquiao and Mayweather … smaller fighters who want to make a name for themselves (and also money) always end up going to the bigger weight classes where there are more fighters, bigger names, and bigger fights. And only when then they successfully accomplish that … they become famous and legendary. It’s s pretty old story. 130-135 is really the bare minimum for the masses to take interest, but even that is stretching it. Would you say Lomachencko and Shakur Stevenson and Devin Haney are big names? Only with boxing fans, right? Traditionally, the biggest fights and fighters happen in the 145-165 range, then at heavy weight. Weight classes that fall in between those two zones, above and below, always have less fighters and competition, so they are way stations for young fighters who end up moving up or down. That’s not what I personally think is ideal, that’s just the history of boxing. If you don’t already know the history of this phenomenon … would you say that qualifies YOU as a casual fan?
As for the ring name Monster, Inoue confesses that he does not like it, saying it is "overrated. In fact, Inoue is a very humble and gentlemanly man outside of competition. When he learned that Donaire had promised his son that he would bring home the WBSS championship trophy after their fierce battle in the finals, he handed Donaire the trophy he had just won himself. But he is also a man so stoic that when he signed a professional contract, he promised to fight only strong opponents. When Fulton's team complains about Inoue's bunting, he accepts it as long as the fight is on an equal footing. This seemingly gentlemanly attitude is the reason why Inoue is called a monster. He never underestimates his opponents, always studying them and adapting. Even though he has already conquered several weight classes and buried several world champions, Inoue is never satisfied and always remains a challenger like a hungry and ferocious beast.
@@1980angel1they accused Mr Inoue of illegally wrapping his hands so to prove it’s not true he wrapped his hands in front of Fulton team and they still had some shit to say.
@@yokayokayoka_yo In French, an "ant" is called "Fourmi." We enjoy stepping on ants. In France, Fulton is called "Fourmiton." Because we see he loves to step on people's toes, as if he is stepping on ants. He's Stephen Fourmiton.
In Baktani language "fullo" mean "tread down". In Baktanistan Fulton is called "Fulloton" because he always tread on opponent's toe. He s Stefan Fulloton.
Naoya is a shining diamond of this sport. Cool, concentrated, calm and extremely powerful. Pleasure to watch his fight and also important his respect to his opponents. Probably the most amazing boxer of the last decade
All my friends were calling me crazy 3-4 years ago when i was raving about Inoue it's nice to see him get some recognition people already calling for him to climb up to weight for Davis lol
@ Himmel, I hear you. I have suffered online trolling for backing Naoya and Loma for quite some years now. He has just gone up to 122Lb, so his next logical step once getting these 4 straps would be 127Lb. He is too small at 1.65M (5 ft 6") to jump up to much bigger and stronger guys at 135 lbs. Maybe in 2 or 3 years as he muscles up a bit. 👍
I know Inoue is a hard puncher, but what also impresses me is how quick he is. He closes a gap so quickly, and gets out so quickly, it's really impressive. He moves his head out of the way of punches, too, and throws punches from whatever angle is needed. He's a very complete fighter. The way he walks in on people reminds me or Roberto Duran.
everyone says Inoue has power, but Inoue's grip strength is less than 47kg. The good part about Inoue is technique and speed, timing, the strength of the legs and the ability to defend.
Duran is a legend. Took on every body even when he was over the hill. A complete boxer and could brawl with the goons too. Also he trash talked when it wasn't even a thing. Ali don't count because those were jokes. Duran insulted your wife, your mother, your manhood, your dog....he didn't care.
I'm just now realizing how dirty Fulton fought by hitting after the ref said stop, hitting on the back of the head and the ocasional stepping on the opponent's foot, which is 100% unnatural with them using the same stance. Inoue is a monster and won the fight outright. I just can't believe a world champion such as Fulton would resort to such grimy tactics.
While 100% not true in the past, we can safely say that on this evening Inoue fought a nobody. Fulton is a piece of stinky shit. If only the fight had not been stopped so early.
Gotta respect the way Inoue goes about taking care of business. Very Zen... Never boasting/bragging; never trash talking or trying to psych out his opponent. He just steps into the ring calmly; and methodically gets it done.
Inoue won 19 world titles but Fulton won 3. That means Inoue challenged 19 best- ranked and champion fighters, and he won. His resume is far more insanely impressive than expectations. We, boxing fans, know it is very suicidal and reckless for him to challenge a champion fighter like Fulton first when he was advanced to super bantamweight class. No wonder he is considered a monster for nothing.

I remember mike tyson mentioned this japanese fighter as one of his favorite fighters right now a while ago ... and can see why. he truly is a monster. what skill and precision
I love seeing Inoue dispatch his opponents with such skill and intelligence!! It really makes my day! Such speed, accuracy and concentrated power in his punches.
Inoue's lower body is very stable. His punching power must be greatly related to the power of kicking the ground. Furthermore, Inoue's left foot step width and speed completely nullified Fulton's reach advantage.
He def has a perfect stance for power and technical prowess for accuracy and speed .....dude moves differently than anyone else.....he is the def of trained from childhood, through the ranks he climbed .....noone else like him rn in boxing
those calves aint no joke. That's Kinetic linking for you. Also Fulton stance was wayyyy to wide for him to deal with any of Inoue's follow up punches in his combinations. He would just end up flat-footed and stuck after trying to avoid the first punch.
Did anyone have any doubts that this fight would end this way. Fulton is a great fighter but like most of Naoyas opponents he's made to look like an amateur. I haven't been this excited about boxing since Mike Tyson. The monster lives up to his name. I don't think anyone can beat him right now. Amazing fighter.
Most of Japanese knew it would be an easy fight. There is a lot of hardcore boxing fans in Japan. Inoue also said that in an interview that this fight is the biggest fight but Fulton surely is not as tough as other fighters he fought against
This guy is so much better than Floyd. No points playing and running, he's aggressive and dominance asserting while outclassing everyone in speed and technique
This is first time that I see Inoue performs Philly style. Not only that, he did that against the opponent who was born and raised in Philly. How cool it’s that!!
We Japanese never expected Naoya Inoue to do Philadelphia style. In the past, he has also imitated Roy Jones' no-guard technique during matches and performed the Ali Shuffle to excite the audience.
They respected Fulton because they know coming over to japan was a disadvantage for him. They appreciated his effort to come over. That's why people supported Fulton warmly. They love boxing and admire those fighters lose or win.
foreign fighters travel to the us all the time but many americans do not even consider this. Fulton just got outboxed tbh. Nothing to do with an disadvantage@@akas224
THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN COMPARE NAOYA WITH MAYWEATHER . MAYWEATHER IS NOT ANYWHERE NEAR NAOYA . NAOYA DOESN'T RUN , NEVER HOLDS , NEVER COVERUPS TOO OFTEN , NEVER PAYED OFFICIALS TO MAKE HIM WIN , NEVER TAKE DRUGS , NOT ARROGANT, NEVER CHEATS .
Fulton stepped on Inoue's toes many times. Inoue said after the game that Fulton's foot-stomping is something he normally does, so he can't do it unless he practices.
I am glad that inoue won the fight I am a Filipino and it feels so good that an ASIAN is conguering and defeating american fighters like pacman have done,coz american think they are more superior than anyone,thank you monster I am proud of you,go on and beat those amerian fihghters,
Fulton finds himself on the defensive throughout. It's a complete defeat for him. The result would probably be the same no matter how many times they played each other.
Technique, power, sensation, defense, mentality, all at their highest attainment. I can only imagine an opponent like Mayweather in his prime. Anyone who doubts his #1 ranking in PFP is a fool.
He's incredible and so is Crawford. They are equal #1. They will never meet because of the size difference so there will be no proof, and it's foolish to be certain without proof.
Who is Fulton anyway? I live in the U.S. and never heard of Him. But I know for sure who Inoue is! Pound for pound is elusive because it involves so many weight classes. But in My Cocky opinion , this Guy " Inoue " is the best EVER in His weight class. And If I were to vote on the craftiest,skilled,tenacious,skilled,confident fighter right now, Inoue is in FIRST!!! Terrance Crawford 2nd .David Benavidez.
If What Tim Bradly said about certain hand wraping can make punches 10 times more powerful was true, Inoue managed to make his punches 10 times less powerful by hand wrapping "the U.S way", and wore the most padded gloves, and still KO'ed Fulton. WOW he truely is a monster. Lol
Fulton is a coward who is blatantly trying to step on Inoue's toes. He is known as Fumuton in Japan. The reason is that "step on" is "fumu" in Japanese.
On the real, the one that I don't get is that they say he's never fought anyone. Half of this man's career has been title fights. Not to mention he also skipped weight classes, meaning he could have another decision under is belt. This man is the real deal. Fan boy status made lol
Inoue KOs the champion so early in the round that people are under the illusion that he is fighting an unknown boxer, and there are many fans who don't have a very accurate perspective on boxing
When you check his gloves before the fight, then get knocked out, then blame him after the fight for cheating.. You just can't admit you were scared after you felt his power.. Now you gunna go back to the Hood like Broner and tell everyone you did it for the "Hood". LMAO
Naoya is 1 of the best boxers and P4P ever!! Been following this legend since he demolished Narvaez in 2R, in 2014!! I have taken a lot of crap, for me saying this guy is so special. Same as I followed Loma. Both way ahead of the Pack. Loma is about to peak, Naoya is still blasting his way to the "Very Top". 👍👍
Dude, take the time to spell out Pound For Pound in place of the half assed P4P. You watched too much boxing in school when they were doing the spelling lessons. Glad you have something you are passionate about anyways. Pacquiao is better P4P than your boy!
Fulton, he boasts, "I'm the elite among the elite," but elite boxers don't step on their opponents' toes, pretend to be clinches and hold them! When the game is over and there are no sides, it is sportsmanship to praise each other's good work! I can't do that, and I don't have the mental space to collect the championship belt before Inoue's press conference! I don't want to see the people in the Fulton camp who are not flashy and earn small coins while repeating foul plays!!
@@JeffSpehar-ov1cn In the future Jeff. But not at present. i can see the same happening to Marlon Tamales at 26 December 23 fight. Stong southpaw fighter, hard puncher: but leaves his right hand down after he jabs. Naoya with his hand speed, footwork and that power left hook will be all over Marlon, like an octopus with boxing gloves. Naoya in R7 or R8.
That last part, Fulton is purely on a survival mode after the knockout, there's no fight from him anymore just punishment. Team of Fulton should throw the towel at that point.
@@tarzan2441 Against someone who specializes in counter-punching as well. That was basically the ultimate flex. To initiate on a counter-puncher, land the first shot, and the counter the counter punch. That was the real demonstration of dominance. That was the moment went Fulton probably realized he was in trouble and was completely outclassed.

I’ve seen some of Fulton’s bouts before this. He is no pushover. Inoue is just too good, faster, more accurate, powerful and that boxing IQ is really very high. He could have won just by his jabbing and accurate hooks. When Fulton started to get more offensive after round 7, inoue just grabbed his chance with a few explosive shots and Fulton was out.
@@keonhobgood1551 hard to say, 6kg from 55kg(122 lbs) isn’t too far. But of course his opponents will be bigger and stronger too. 140lbs will be hard. He’s just small at 5ft5’.
@@lesliechan68 Inoue's also already 30 years old; he's no longer "growing" into his body, so he's going to have to gain weight slowly in order to build truly functional muscle. Maybe he can go as far as 135 near the end of his prime, but if he manages to do something like become undisputed at both Super Bantam and Featherweight, maybe he won't have to; his legacy would be more than complete as the only person to be undisputed in three divisions.
Fulton was engaging in some *shenanigans* in this fight - he's got black shoes, on a black mat, and while his rear foot has bright yellow laces, his front foot has black laces. And he spends the first three rounds - until the ref *finally* calls him out for it - trying to, and occasionally succeeding in, tripping Inoue on the advance. In the second and third he's actively stepping on Inoue's toes. Wild to watch the younger man doing this stuff. Honestly, I had forgotten how many shots Fulton weathered over the course of this fight. He really does have a stellar chin. But there was a sense of inevitability about this from the opening salvo, and it came to pass.
That straight left to the body followed immediately by a lightning fast left hook to the head ... holy shit, I don't know if that's defensible. What an absolute beast Inoue is.
The way Inoue been clearing his way through 4 divisions i seriously think he can become an all time great. I mean I wouldn’t favor a single person at 126 or 130 to beat Inoue
Inoue is like the second coming of Pacquiao damn that resemblance in speed and power is uncanny. I only saw Inoue in trouble one time and that was against Nonito Donaire who was way past his prime when they fought a couple of years ago
Fulton hype-job and said "I'm smart, I'm faster, I'm quicker, Inoue is too small, Inoue is too short, Inoue is hype-train, I'm better, bigger, slicker more athletic, I will win" Fulton is loud mouth. He went Tokyo JAPAN for Big money. And he got big money about 5,000,000USD ( Basic fight money 3,000,000USD + fight postponement money 1,000,000USD + PPV % money about 1,000,000USD. Total 5,000,000USD. ) Enough for Fulton class boxer ( His fight money average 400,000USD ~ 600,000USD ). Fulton has NO COURAGE. He always afraid of Monster Inoue during match. And Fulton and his team cheeted Monster many things before a match. Including team, Fulton is B class.
This is another monster Inoue, smaller but terrible fighter and faster. He will reach his high peak in his boxing career. The best fighter so far in that division.

I remember mike tyson mentioned this japanese fighter as one of his favorite fighters right now a while ago ... and can see why. he truly is a monster. what skill and precision
No,casimero is real.
@@hayakawakazuya Casimero?🐢🐢🤣🤣
Naoya Inoue's drawback is that he has no rivals. I don't know the upper limit of his strength because he always wins overwhelmingly.
I love seeing Inoue dispatch his opponents with such skill and intelligence!! It really makes my day! Such speed, accuracy and concentrated power in his punches.
Monster is generational talent… like pacquaio and Floyd had a baby. Fast hands, great defense, footwork, and power
with the boxing IQ and real-time adjustment abilties of Terence Crawford
Floyd and pacman were better but naoya is special
To all newbies out there... Inoue is just crazy strong cause Fulton is one hell of a fighter
I just noticed how often Fulton would try to step on Naoya’s foot. Weak.
Inoue's lower body is very stable.
His punching power must be greatly related to the power of kicking the ground. Furthermore, Inoue's left foot step width and speed completely nullified Fulton's reach advantage.
His calf...like a tree with roots...and with springs...hard to describe...just amazing.
I heard Andre Ward mention that in one of his previous fights. Been paying attention to that ever since...
He def has a perfect stance for power and technical prowess for accuracy and speed .....dude moves differently than anyone else.....he is the def of trained from childhood, through the ranks he climbed .....noone else like him rn in boxing
Best analysis I've read yet.
those calves aint no joke. That's Kinetic linking for you. Also Fulton stance was wayyyy to wide for him to deal with any of Inoue's follow up punches in his combinations. He would just end up flat-footed and stuck after trying to avoid the first punch.
Did anyone have any doubts that this fight would end this way. Fulton is a great fighter but like most of Naoyas opponents he's made to look like an amateur. I haven't been this excited about boxing since Mike Tyson. The monster lives up to his name. I don't think anyone can beat him right now. Amazing fighter.
Yeah and he doesn't cherry pick. Just fighting top lvl guys only and knocking them out
@@jessexiong69that’s the good thing, he livin like manny. Pick the bigger and top guys to prove yo self
You would never guess Fulton was any good at all watching this fight
Most of Japanese knew it would be an easy fight. There is a lot of hardcore boxing fans in Japan. Inoue also said that in an interview that this fight is the biggest fight but Fulton surely is not as tough as other fighters he fought against
@@Horizon0505iijeagreed, Fulton isn’t as great as Donaire was.
Mike Tyson was right...... The kid is a monster
Lmao he's not a kid anymore he's already 30 years old y'all acting like he is the same age as ryan garcia

This guy is so much better than Floyd.
No points playing and running, he's aggressive and dominance asserting while outclassing everyone in speed and technique
He was running the whole time hahaha. People just say Mayweather runs because he's black.

More entertaining but floyd would win sadly.. hes setup just too OP
@@MTechnikM floyd never fought. but I have to say he was a great track and field star.
This is first time that I see Inoue performs Philly style. Not only that, he did that against the opponent who was born and raised in Philly. How cool it’s that!!
We Japanese never expected Naoya Inoue to do Philadelphia style. In the past, he has also imitated Roy Jones' no-guard technique during matches and performed the Ali Shuffle to excite the audience.
Japan showed more love for Fulton after the loss than Fulton fans. That's just sad.
They respected Fulton because they know coming over to japan was a disadvantage for him. They appreciated his effort to come over. That's why people supported Fulton warmly. They love boxing and admire those fighters lose or win.
@pass4359, it's simple, he didn't show up like a Champion Should've!
foreign fighters travel to the us all the time but many americans do not even consider this. Fulton just got outboxed tbh. Nothing to do with an disadvantage@@akas224
@@glennpeterson2477correction: inoue didn't allow fulton to do anything

Fulton's defense is unorthodox the way he's catching Inouye's punches with his face!
Hahaha
THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN COMPARE NAOYA WITH MAYWEATHER . MAYWEATHER IS NOT ANYWHERE NEAR NAOYA . NAOYA DOESN'T RUN , NEVER HOLDS , NEVER COVERUPS TOO OFTEN , NEVER PAYED OFFICIALS TO MAKE HIM WIN , NEVER TAKE DRUGS , NOT ARROGANT, NEVER CHEATS .
yeah mayweather's style is realy forgettable, this guy, naoya is like pacman but higher IQ.
He is good but not near mayweather in his prime.
No what you are talking about. You think that you no.
@@kennethhines1973 Inoue is much better than Mayweather has ever been. Plus. Inoue's matches are exciting to watch, unlike Mayweather's.
@@nauikunart That piece of shyt Mayweather is already descending the stairway to oblivion. He will be forgotten soon enough.
Fulton stepped on Inoue's toes many times.
Inoue said after the game that Fulton's foot-stomping is something he normally does, so he can't do it unless he practices.
I am glad that inoue won the fight I am a Filipino and it feels so good that an ASIAN is conguering and defeating american fighters like pacman have done,coz american think they are more superior than anyone,thank you monster I am proud of you,go on and beat those amerian fihghters,
Fulton finds himself on the defensive throughout. It's a complete defeat for him. The result would probably be the same no matter how many times they played each other.
100%
Technique, power, sensation, defense, mentality, all at their highest attainment.
I can only imagine an opponent like Mayweather in his prime.
Anyone who doubts his #1 ranking in PFP is a fool.
He's incredible and so is Crawford. They are equal #1.
They will never meet because of the size difference so there will be no proof, and it's foolish to be certain without proof.
Mayweather and inoue same as running chicken. Inoue is scared to casimero.
This dude is way more entertaining to watch than Floyd was
Defense? Nah
That defense suck
@@DiabolicEsper00 You don't know about Inoue at all 😂 Inoue himself said it, but he says that his greatest strength is not power but defense 🤭
Who is Fulton anyway? I live in the U.S. and never heard of Him. But I know for sure who Inoue is! Pound for pound is elusive because it involves so many weight classes. But in My Cocky opinion , this Guy " Inoue " is the best EVER in His weight class. And If I were to vote on the craftiest,skilled,tenacious,skilled,confident fighter right now, Inoue is in FIRST!!! Terrance Crawford 2nd .David Benavidez.
Inoue throws a great combo
Commentators: great defence by Fulton
Fulton throws a jab
Commentators: Knockdown
03:01 Left body - Left Hook. lol
09:11 It looks like he's playing with a newbie
Fulton would have been very frustrated at this point.
Inoue is so freakin' fast. Even in slow-mo he's freakin' fast. 😂
If What Tim Bradly said about certain hand wraping can make punches 10 times more powerful was true,
Inoue managed to make his punches 10 times less powerful by hand wrapping "the U.S way", and wore the most padded gloves,
and still KO'ed Fulton. WOW he truely is a monster. Lol
Fulton is a coward who is blatantly trying to step on Inoue's toes. He is known as Fumuton in Japan. The reason is that "step on" is "fumu" in Japanese.
よく知っていますねw
On the real, the one that I don't get is that they say he's never fought anyone. Half of this man's career has been title fights. Not to mention he also skipped weight classes, meaning he could have another decision under is belt. This man is the real deal.
Fan boy status made lol
Inoue KOs the champion so early in the round that people are under the illusion that he is fighting an unknown boxer, and there are many fans who don't have a very accurate perspective on boxing
Look at that speed, they both are incredible
I am 68 and I haven't been this excited since seeing a prime Roberto Duran!
Loved this fight! Fulton trashed Inoue and said he was too big and hits too hard for Inoue to handle it! Looks like the opposite was true!
Inoue is the true monster pound for pound Champ 🏆!!!
Naoya made Stephen Fulton look like an amateur..!!!
One of the most beautiful fights ever.👋👍
When you check his gloves before the fight, then get knocked out, then blame him after the fight for cheating.. You just can't admit you were scared after you felt his power.. Now you gunna go back to the Hood like Broner and tell everyone you did it for the "Hood". LMAO
when you stop crying and hating you may watch the sport again
Power from cheating. You sound as dumb as Inoue looks. Definitely will go down in history as the Asian Margarito
He was way out boxed. Asian fighter stronger and quicker.
Naoya is 1 of the best boxers and P4P ever!! Been following this legend since he demolished Narvaez in 2R, in 2014!! I have taken a lot of crap, for me saying this guy is so special. Same as I followed Loma. Both way ahead of the Pack.
Loma is about to peak, Naoya is still blasting his way to the "Very Top". 👍👍
Dude, take the time to spell out Pound For Pound in place of the half assed P4P. You watched too much boxing in school when they were doing the spelling lessons. Glad you have something you are passionate about anyways. Pacquiao is better P4P than your boy!
Same
Have you forgotten, Pacquiao? ^_^
@@neil7804 No one has forgotten him. Can still respect both
Lol Loma is done foh
Non contest - Naoya Inoue is in a league of his own - exceptional BOXER - GOAT at this weight division.
Fulton, he boasts, "I'm the elite among the elite," but elite boxers don't step on their opponents' toes, pretend to be clinches and hold them! When the game is over and there are no sides, it is sportsmanship to praise each other's good work! I can't do that, and I don't have the mental space to collect the championship belt before Inoue's press conference! I don't want to see the people in the Fulton camp who are not flashy and earn small coins while repeating foul plays!!

crazy reaction
They didn't call him "The Monster" for nothing!
Naoya is the real"Monster"
Inoues sense of distance, timing and energy efficiency in his punches really is something special to watch
He was not Inoue's enemy. Fulton must also hone his humanity techniques.
Nayoa is an Icon, Dedication to his sport and not one ounce of ego. Cannot think of anyone who could beat him.
Always someone.
@@JeffSpehar-ov1cn In the future Jeff. But not at present. i can see the same happening to Marlon Tamales at 26 December 23 fight. Stong southpaw fighter, hard puncher: but leaves his right hand down after he jabs.

Naoya's speed is just too much.
Inoue is way too powerful for most of his opponents. His punches are deadly. It takes only one or two solid punches to drop his opponent.
That last part, Fulton is purely on a survival mode after the knockout, there's no fight from him anymore just punishment. Team of Fulton should throw the towel at that point.

@@tarzan2441 Against someone who specializes in counter-punching as well. That was basically the ultimate flex. To initiate on a counter-puncher, land the first shot, and the counter the counter punch.

I’ve seen some of Fulton’s bouts before this. He is no pushover. Inoue is just too good, faster, more accurate, powerful and that boxing IQ is really very high. He could have won just by his jabbing and accurate hooks. When Fulton started to get more offensive after round 7, inoue just grabbed his chance with a few explosive shots and Fulton was out.
And if the monster go up to the 135. Bye bye tank or anybody's in the 136
I don’t think he can make it to 135 and keep all that speed if so nobody stands a chance
@@keonhobgood1551 hard to say, 6kg from 55kg(122 lbs) isn’t too far. But of course his opponents will be bigger and stronger too. 140lbs will be hard. He’s just small at 5ft5’.
@@lesliechan68 Inoue's also already 30 years old; he's no longer "growing" into his body, so he's going to have to gain weight slowly in order to build truly functional muscle. Maybe he can go as far as 135 near the end of his prime, but if he manages to do something like become undisputed at both Super Bantam and Featherweight, maybe he won't have to; his legacy would be more than complete as the only person to be undisputed in three divisions.
@@Tenchigumi if he gets undisputed @ 122 & 126 before he reaches 34. I think he might try 130, but maybe not go for undisputed.
Fulton was engaging in some *shenanigans* in this fight - he's got black shoes, on a black mat, and while his rear foot has bright yellow laces, his front foot has black laces. And he spends the first three rounds - until the ref *finally* calls him out for it - trying to, and occasionally succeeding in, tripping Inoue on the advance. In the second and third he's actively stepping on Inoue's toes. Wild to watch the younger man doing this stuff.
Honestly, I had forgotten how many shots Fulton weathered over the course of this fight. He really does have a stellar chin. But there was a sense of inevitability about this from the opening salvo, and it came to pass.
I love watching this fight again and again. . A masterclass
This is my favorite boxing fight .
That straight left to the body followed immediately by a lightning fast left hook to the head ... holy shit, I don't know if that's defensible. What an absolute beast Inoue is.
Right? Fulton tried to counter, but then inoue used the same hand to counter the counter
@@Cons2911 you guys talking about at 3:01 right? Usually the counter straight right over the shoulder is money... usually..
@@agookchild yeah, I get the over the shoulder part, what surprised me was he just used the same hand to jab, then pulled of that punch as a counter
fr that was too fast
The referee's stopping moment was the incredibly the best proper moment I think.
I've watched this fight highlights so many times now. I can keep watching it again and again it's so good
in the last flurry just before the ref stopped him, he caught fulton with a pretty hard punch to the face, they show it in slow motion in other videos
The way Inoue been clearing his way through 4 divisions i seriously think he can become an all time great. I mean I wouldn’t favor a single person at 126 or 130 to beat Inoue
That kid is sensational, so poised, so methodical. He's a pleasure to watch
He's 30

Cool story
Inoue is like the second coming of Pacquiao damn that resemblance in speed and power is uncanny. I only saw Inoue in trouble one time and that was against Nonito Donaire who was way past his prime when they fought a couple of years ago
3:01 WTF he was not suppose to land that. This naoya kid is crazy!!!
Fulton hype-job and said "I'm smart, I'm faster, I'm quicker, Inoue is too small, Inoue is too short, Inoue is hype-train, I'm better, bigger, slicker more athletic, I will win" Fulton is loud mouth. He went Tokyo JAPAN for Big money. And he got big money about 5,000,000USD ( Basic fight money 3,000,000USD + fight postponement money 1,000,000USD + PPV % money about 1,000,000USD. Total 5,000,000USD. ) Enough for Fulton class boxer ( His fight money average 400,000USD ~ 600,000USD ). Fulton has NO COURAGE. He always afraid of Monster Inoue during match. And Fulton and his team cheeted Monster many things before a match. Including team, Fulton is B class.
Naoya Innoue is the best Until Now 👍👍👍😁😁😁
This is another monster Inoue, smaller but terrible fighter and faster. He will reach his high peak in his boxing career. The best fighter so far in that division.
