A true martial arts fanatic. He is crazy about boxing and knows all the intricacies of this martial art. I really like his fighting style. He throws most of his punches with his front hand. The fist moves along a minimal trajectory, and the enemy is forced to constantly be on the defensive.
Naoya is an absolutely unpredictable boxer. He constantly changes his fighting style, and this terrifies all his opponents. But they do not have time to really get scared (because they get a terrible blow to the body and they no longer have time to feel fear).
It will be very difficult for Butler to box with such a strong opponent.
Not just in Japan alone, he is also the Bruce Lee in the boxing industry with monstrous strength that by far, only Nonito Donaire have managed to put him on edge but then he keeps on evolving as time goes by and have managed to master both offense and defense. So, that makes him more unpredictable aside from constant changes in his fighting style, and that scares his future foes because they will need to make an expensive mistake just to figure out Inoue's style and weakness. By that time that they know, Inoue already defeated them, that's how terrifying this monster is. I bet the champions in the super-bantam are already worried because they are about to face a tough challenger.
Yes, after that experienced against the Pinoy flash he evolves a lot and continue in enhancing his skills,
the IQ that he has makes him more unpredictable.
He can adjust while fighting something that his opponent will be hard to box him, with his strong combination and the perfect
timing of his speed Butler's chance of winning is too slim.
We are just waiting for the date and for Inoue to complete his chase in holding all the belts in his division.
Inoue made Donaire as a motivation to mature and develop his skills to become much stronger in his next fights because the aging Donaire managed to push him in corner, so he thinks that he should improve because he cannot cement his legacy if he'll be predictable.
Now, as we saw him in his recent fight, he's already different and much agile than he is before. Even the Flash cannot predict nor read his movements and only knew the attack the moment he already suffered it. Anyway, the fight is nearing its schedule, I'm just excited on Inoue's post-fight statements regarding his move.
