There's no problem with vacating the belts for Inoue. The ultimate goal is to win them all to add to his achievements and then fight some challengers before moving up. I'm sure Inoue still has the power and speed to dominate, so moving up at the right time could be one of his priorities once he holds all the belts. Of course, he needs to beat Tapales, who is obviously not as hyped as people are underestimating him.

Inoue does not intend to stay in the bantamweight division for long. So, if he wins this fight, he might just consider a few title defenses. I think one year is already enough to accommodate at least two challengers before he moves up. In fact, I still believe that once he moves up, he will remain the most feared opponent. Great job to Inoue for taking things slowly but consistently. He knows how to make his future plans work, and there's nothing to worry about.

Yes, most likely 1 or 2 fights and once his body matures again at 122 lbs, he might go for another belt at 126 lbs. But not sure if he will be feared though, I mean 126 lbs, there are lot of great champion that might give Inoue a hard time.

But for now, let's see how he will do his unification against Tapales, almost everyone here thinks that Tapales odds are very slim. So maybe we might be talking at how Inoue will win and what round will it end for Tapales.

Yes, more fans and bookies think that Tapales chance is slim. By looking at their respective past performances, still Inoue got the
edge, though Tapales handling 2 belts and was able to win against the former champ.

He needed to excel and plan a good strategy to execute. Inoue is by far from the last opponents that he
fought before. Inoue is quick and very wise type of fighter. He will analyze you and will plan for a good
strategy during the fight, then execute to take you down and win the fight.

So maybe we might be talking at how Inoue will win and what round will it end for Tapales.

If Inoue wins, I'm guessing that this won't go past 6 rounds. Tapales is an aggressive fighter, although he has mastered the counter-punching style, he really likes to engage with his opponents. So, it should be an interesting fight to watch, but I'm afraid Tapales won't be able to time his attacks well against the speed and quickness of Inoue.

The only reason Stephen Fulton and Paul Butler lasted in the later rounds before getting KO'd is that they didn't engage in a toe-to-toe battle against Inoue. So, if Tapales were to go toe-to-toe, this fight could end early. However, there's still a chance that an upset could happen because Tapales has KO power. But as the majority believes, Inoue is still likely to dominate. Tapales should master Inoue's style to determine how to counter it, because if not, he will just be fighting to survive, no different from other boxers.

The good thing about Marlon Tapales is he is also an experienced fighter and is somewhat smart with an underrated power in both hands. He is now a 2 division world champion so his confidence is also high. In his last fight, Tapales brought something new to his style that made former unified champion Murodjon Akhmadaliev have difficulty in their fight.

So Tapales might surprise us again. I want to see Tapales being the aggressor in this fight. Make himself that hunter instead of being like Butler and Fulton who were hunted by Inoue. Careful aggression and try to lure Naoya Inoue into a brawl. I doubt Inoue will engage, he is too smart so he will be forced to backpedal so he can utilize his speed which is his best asset.

But he needs to be more careful as Donaire did try this strategy and didn't last long on their rematch, Inoue's power combination
is something that Tapales needs to study.

With a good counter or a good system that may allow him to prevent huge damage or a possible KO, his chance might be better.

We really don't know what will happen as like you mentioned. He surprises Murodjon and who knows if he may repeat that same outcome
against Inoue, right?

absolutely mate Inoue is different when you will face him so if staples want to win This match then he need to study the movement and technique of inoue as we all know that it's proven and tested that inoue will release his anger inside the ring. And also as we saw his previous fight then we can say that he is a different boxer cause he has.agood footwork and fast punches that can destroy his opponent so Tapales must be watch out.

Having more belts like Pacman must be the goal. He'd be more glorified than Pac If he achieved 9 belts in a different division and I think he will be able to make it.
For now, he can assure himself to dominate fighters but by the time he reaches welterweight, he may find himself getting slower and experience loss.

He got Fulton with no harm to himself, he will also KO Tapales easily. Since Tapales is no threat to him, the odds may be Inoue 1.25 vs. Tapales 3.10.

Everything really points out that he will be the favorite here and most likely accomplished a second unification champion.

I think the right term to use here is "undisputed champion".

This is an article that explains about the specific fight.Inoue Vs. Tapales For Undisputed Being Targeted For December

Inoue has become an undisputed champion in the bantamweight division, and now he is in the super bantamweight division, aiming to achieve the same.

That's right, because whoever wins this fight will probably hold all four belts and become the undisputed champion.

Here is the list of belts and the champions who hold them:

WBC: Inoue
WBO: Inoue
WBA: Tapales
IBF: Tapales

Now, we will only have one champion after this fight, and the next step for the champion is to face challengers before moving up.

Yes, he can choose to stay and defends the belt, but if you look at others who have unified it, going to be very hard. So the best recourse for them is to really vacant some of the belt as obviously as I have said, very difficult to defend it.

One, each body has it's mandatory challenges, so just imagine the unified champion trying to fight all the mandatories in a year, so that is not possible. Second, boxing politics, boxers will choose which body is the best for them, and choose that fight, lets say it's WBC so he will have to maintain his WBC status. So the other bodies will force their way as well. So the champion will have to vacant at least 2 of the belts and maintain the belt that he likes or at least there is some sort of prestige having that belt.

There's no problem with vacating the belts for Inoue. The ultimate goal is to win them all to add to his achievements and then fight some challengers before moving up. I'm sure Inoue still has the power and speed to dominate, so moving up at the right time could be one of his priorities once he holds all the belts.

Going back into the topic about against Tapales, then it would really be a good opportunity for Tapales on hitting two birds on one stone. #1 he would be a unified champion #2 he do able to beat up
the unbeatable monster which its a record that would really be that worth.

Both fighters have an equal opportunity in this bout, but if Inoue were to lose, it could have a significant impact on his future. He may find it challenging to continue moving up in the ranks, as his perceived strength might not hold up. The pressure on Inoue is quite high, with the world cheering for him, so winning this fight is crucial for him.

I think both of them have huge pressures, for Marlon, this is his biggest fight obviously and he wants to bring glory to the Philippines again. For Inoue, he wants to maintain his status in the p4p list and he is fighting again in front of his hometown.

But with his impeccable records of knocking out his opponents, I guess majority here knows that it's a hard task for Tapales to upset Inoue and as someone says, he needs all the luck to be able to pull that.

With luck and hard trainings it might still be possible to put an upset but the chance is too slim, Tapales will be a huge underdog
here since Inoue's winning chance is really high.

Definitely, there is luck here, specially in boxing, as one punch that really change everything. And if that happens, it's going to be a big upset and for sure there will eb a lot of shakeup next in the 122 lbs as Tapales will now be the unified champion.

However, we are just taking about logic here, I mean the record of Inoue, the opposition he face. Everything really points out that he will be the favorite here and most likely accomplished a second unification champion.

It's something that long been expected since they've got a huge gap in terms of achievements, though both are champions.

But the level of competitiveness and the level of winning expectations are being eyed mostly, if not all, for Inoue.

True, but people would understand if Tapales were to lose because he was viewed as a heavy underdog in this fight. However, if Tapales were to win, although both are champions, people would think it's a huge upset. So it's easier for Tapales to move on if he loses, while Inoue might be mentally affected if he were to lose in a fight that most of the fans from both sides believed he would win. And to think they even thought it will be just an easy fight for him.

maybe Tapales chance is only by Luck or a super Lucky punch .

You are not alone in underestimating Tapales; even some of his fellow countrymen do not think he has the tools to defeat Inoue. They are endorsing Casimero to match up with Inoue. It's just sad that it won't happen easily, as Casimero isn't a champion. Neither of them is destined to fight, but eventually, as time passes by, opportunities will open up for these two that will interest them because of a huge reward.

In terms of career hype, unifying all the belts will be the focused for Inoue as he really wanted to continue excelling in this sport, though it's sweeter if Taples will upset him since everyone or most expect that it's Inoue that will win this fight.

With your statement, equal opportunity as they will be given that chance to beat one another,
but stats wise and winning chance by favorite all the way for Inoue.

I also consider this fight as a already decision for Inoue and just formality to continue the fight.

maybe Tapales chance is only by Luck or a super Lucky punch .

Casimero confidence is also influenced by his readiness to increase his weight to be able to meet Inoue in his class.

Casimero doesn't need to increase his weight to face Inoue because they are currently in the same division.

You can check the list of boxers and their respective rankings; the boxers we are discussing belong to the super bantamweight division.

look here:

Well right now both of them are in the super batam class weighing 122lbs but previously Casimero was only in the 118lbs batam class and when Casimero wanted to challenge Inoue always avoided the fight and moved up to the super batam class then Casimero followed and returned to give the fighting challenge he had given to Inoue before.

The WBO and WBC super classes are currently held by Inoue and Casimero the WBC is ranked 7th and the WBO is ranked 3rd and if Inoue later accepts Casimero challenge perhaps one of these titles could be taken over by Casimero.
But from several rumors circulating it seems that Inoue will be hesitant to accept the challenge from Casimero because he has the desire to unite 4 titles in one Batam super class where two titles are held by Marlon Tapales.

It was indeed unfortunate for Casimero when the fight between him and Inoue was initially announced, but it had to be postponed and later canceled due to the pandemic. However, when restrictions eased, Inoue lost interest in facing Casimero, likely because Inoue was the more popular boxer and garnered more attention. Another setback for Casimero was when he was stripped of his belt, although it was a move he was planning to make anyway. Nonetheless, it doesn't look good when a boxer is stripped of their title.

Now, the situation has taken a different turn, as Casimero is the one actively seeking a big fight. Unfortunately, it hasn't materialized yet, as the opponents he has faced recently are not in a strong position within the same division.
