The strategy of Tapales was very simple, it might have been effective if he has power because somehow he was able to hit Inoue with his counter punches, but due to the lack of power, Inoue earn high confidence and he continues to attack Tapales. With great strategy and power, I think Nery will be able to give that to Inoue and make give him trouble, but as you said, there's no blueprint yet as to how to defeat Inoue, so I'd say it's easier said than done.
That's one thing about Tapales, he doesn't have that power, but if Nery has some then we will see how Inoue will react if he will be hit early. But as we have seen in his fight since his close encounter with Nonito Donaire, he has improved a lot not just his power, but his speed and quickness in throwing counter like in the Fulton fight. So that's why I said there are still no blue print and it's hard to mold a fighter that can beat the version of Inoue. But in any case, Nery will give his best here, he might fall short though because of Inoue's training and improvement in his last couple of fights beating at least world champions.
