Inoue won the weekend and once again proved that he must see TV

Published

on

Las Vegas – on Sunday evening, which was to be one of the biggest weekends in boxing, changed into a misfire with the best Canelo Alvarez stars, Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney, who do not impress. Fortunately, Nayya Inoue responded to the call and saved a weekend with an electrifying performance against Ramon Cardenas, who deserves a lot of recognition for bringing a fight to “Monster”. Inoue successfully retained his undisputed featherweight championship with an exhilarating Cardenas stop at the eighth round at the T-Mobile arena, strengthening as a mandatory warrior. Although he may not have social media in Garcia or Global Star Power of Canelo, Inoue Sunday could provide his place as the most exhilarating warrior in sport.

The fight had everything that is a great competition. Inoue came off the canvas in round 2, and Cardenas showed amazing sand and determination before he finally underwent inoue’s pressure. Most importantly, it was a pleasant fight that fans would remember, because warrior No. 2 pound ESPN saved boxing before the catastrophic weekend.

Inoue will continue to create more of these performances when he realizes history. Despite the fact that he was one of the three men’s boxers who are not revealed in two weight classes, Inoue is not satisfied and soon he was teasing to a featherweight, where he will try to become unquestioned in an unprecedented class of third weight. His next fight will be against Murodjon “MJ” Akhmadaliev in Tokyo in September and he is expected that he will have a duel with other Japanese warrior, a master of Bantam scales, Junto dug out in 2026.

But what Inoue makes exceptional is that not only comes to win, strives to satisfy the opposition and end the competition before reaching the judges. His 90% knockout indicator is impressive for an insignificant warrior and made a match with a more hard opposition, such as Stephen Fulton, Marlon Tapales and Luis Nero. He rides on the 11-release of Nokautowa pass-all in duels-he showed no signs of slowdown. Add the fact that it generates significant power from smaller weight classes and you have a clear recipe for a global star, which is aesthetically pleasant and willing to be aggressive in the ring, unlike some of his counterparts who competed this weekend.

Inoue is not only one of the best warriors in the world, he is one of the most exhilarating.

Left Hook Kryptonite is hit again: defensive defects inoue cast a shadow on the future dominance

Image: Left Hook Kryptonite Strikes Again: Inoue's Defensive Flaws Cast Shadow Over Future Dominance

Nayya Inoue 30-0, 27 KO) had a more arduous time than expected in defeating Ramon Cardenas (26-2, 14 KO) with a knockout of the eighth round on Sunday evening at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Tonight Inoue needed a crime to save him when Cardenas knocked him down in the second round. This knocking out comes from the left hook. This blow turns out Cryptonite Inoue. He was wounded with the same shot as Luis Nery and Nonito Donaire. Inoue is left for this blow, dropping the guard.

Stunning fear

For the second time in the last four fights “Monster” Inoue was on board after he was nailed by his left hand. Cardenas landed left, which kept Nayy on canvas to count seven. He was lucky that there was no more time for the clock because Cardenas looked like he had finished his work in this round.

It’s good that Inoue later returned to bear Cardenas to get a hasty detention of a judge in the eighth round. However, this fight showed that Nayya lacked a chin to defeat fighters at the elite level if it moves to a featherweight. After today’s fear, I doubt that Inoue would move to the 126 pounds division, because they hit too much in this weight class.

Even if he stays in Super Bantamweight to play safely, he will not be able to continue much longer before he is knocked out by one of the youthful rivals. The fight tonight showed that if Nayya moves to a featherweight, it will not stand out in this division, unless it is adapted even more carefully than his promoters.

Penal weight doubt

Inoue cannot be thrown with the WBO champion 126-LB Rafael Espinosis, and maybe not even WBA Master Nick Ball. They hit too strenuous and would benefit from the tender chin of Nayyi. If Nayya decides to stubbornly planning to 126 to capture more lanes, he must stay away from these sharks:

Las Vegas – “The Monster” saved what was on Sunday evening disappointing the boxing weekend. But he had to do it to do it.

Nayya Inoue (30-0, 27 KO) had to break away from the canvas in the second round and set up a criminal offensive exhibition to stop the extremely challenging Ramon Cardenas (26-2) in defense of their unquestionable Super Bantam championships in T-Mobile Arena.

After some of the biggest names of boxing (Canelo Alvarez, Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney) did not impress on Friday and Saturday, the return of Nayy Inoue to the United States for the first time since 2021. He was interrupted by an thrilling clash, in which the Japanese super -star avoided a catastrophic result in an unforgettable performance, which ended a massive weekends in the unforgettable performance, which ended a massive weekend boxing.

On Sunday evening, Inoue turned out to be a strength in boxing since his professional debut in 2012. He went through four classes of weight, becoming one of three fighters who were unquestioned in two divisions in “Era Four Belt”. Known for his exceptional impact strength, Inoue was a destructive force, and 90% of his winnings are approaching knockout. But Cardenas did not decrease under the shadow of “Monster”. Instead, he came to fight and gave Inoue everything he could do.

When bulky Inoue began to develop the engine in the second round, he met it with the left hook of Cardenas, which sank with a “monster” on canvas. He was lucky that it was knocking down at the end of the round when he went to the corner on the catchy legs. But Inoue shook the cobwebs and methodically went to work, using a inflexible stab to set an assault on the body, which pulled a pair out of Cardenas’s blows.

“Watching today’s fight, everyone is well aware that I like a fight,” said Inoue. “I was very surprised [at the knockdown]But I took things calmly and gathered … In the first round I felt that I had a long distance. It was released in the second round. From then on, I made sure I didn’t do it again. “

But Cardenas did not lose and did not fight with a huge heart, pulling out of the clutches of failure, winging powerful blows, whenever it seemed that the end could be close. The balls of both fighters landed with an audible impact, which attracted a height of 8,474 fans in the arena. Although it was assumed that this was an ordinary attachment for the planned defense of the Inoue title in September against Murodjon “MJ” Akhmadaliev in Tokyo Dome, the fight against Cardenas can be considered a main course.

After the second round, Inoue was notified and took up a more measured approach in the middle rounds, setting his combinations for stab and avoiding a left hook. Inoue turned out to be too powerful for Cardenas and prepared the ground under an thrilling ending, sending his opponent a trio of right hands at the end of the seventh round and throwing himself at the wounded enemy at the beginning of 8. Game Cardenas tried to stay on his feet, but Inoue released a violent combination of seven punch, which forced the detention in the sign: 45.

Although Cardenas saw that his series of victory of the 14-winner stopped, he would leave Las Vegas with newly discovered fame thanks to the kindness of his bold performance against ESPN warrior No. 2 pounds for pounds.

“The fight was a challenging fight,” he said. “I said it all, I said it all. Every interview. He is a pound for a pound, one of the biggest fighters in the world and I just wanted to give fans to fight fans.”

Inoue moves forward along with the September fight against Akhmadaliev and was irritated by a potential movement to a featherweight, where he tried to become the undisputed champion in an unprecedented third grade.

In the co-or-main event, Rafael Espinosis (27-0, 23 KO) presented a dizzying offensive performance to preserve his WBO PIÓRO-Pióra title with the seventh round of Edward Vazquez (17-3).

Espinosis provided a brutal attack from the opening bell, throwing more blows in the first three rounds than Canelo, Devin Haney and Ryan Garcia threw their 12-round fights at the weekend. Despite the game, Vazquez was exceeded and absorbed a huge punishment before the fight was mercifully detained in point 1:47 after another brutal salvo of espinosis.
