I don't know about you, but this fight has had a different tint again, I know that many were 100% with Inoue, but I have read in some other forums that they are only about boxing that they have a lot of hope about Butler, I don't know, it is speculated that it is because of the type of preparation and training that he has taken and this has made people begin to consider their bets, this is something that does not seem bad to me, because I know that despite all this speculation the numbers will be very favor of Inoue, and looking at it from a technical point of view, Inoue is very good, but the surprise factor is that which sometimes surprises us and since there is so much money involved, things can change.
Not sure who are rooting for Butler against the Monster here, but maybe they are just looking for that huge odds and of course the money that they are going to win if Butler put an upset.
But if you have followed boxing, and not read on some other forums that Butler is this and Butler is that. We should know by now how dangerous Naoya is, we thought that Donaire has a chance against Naoya and yet he destroyed him in 2 rounds. So I bet those who are saying in other forums that Butler has a chance is the same individuals who think that Nonito has a good chance as well, just saying.
In that you are absolutely right, there is no way to regret that Butler can give a surprise, because we all know that Inoue looks like a boxer from another world and that is something that cannot be doubted, but obviously there are the numbers, the statistics and everything that has to do with probabilities, however we cannot deny that we also get information from other forums, from other statistics that we see on the web, of course some will have very privileged information about what can happen, maybe Sometimes they are involved in other areas that we are not and because the information is more focused and more specific, in boxing today money is handled a lot.
Also, it is every boxer's dream is to maintain their undefeated status while also cement their legacy and there's just few boxers who did that until they retire.
As for this one, Inoue will have to risk his record in-order to gain because he won't be growing if he will always stay in his comfortable division.
Naoya Inoue already knows and surely understands that moving up will come to him. He's prepared for that.
Besides, I think SuperBantamweight will still be his comfortable division soon as it's not that a big leap from Bantamweight to Super Bantamweight.
It's easy to move up instead of moving down. Boxers increase their strength more during moving up as they will also take additional training in the process.
And with Inoue being younger at his age compared to any boxers, then surely he will always have a lot of chances to improve and move up in his boxing career. Definitely he sees that and he’s been making moves to prove that. If he will defeat his opponent at the current, then it’s certain that he will start moving up and be ready again to settle into another level if his boxing career.
He has improved a lot since the Donaire fight and could be hitting his peak in the next 2-3 years that why he is very dangerous today. We are not saying that Paul Butler is a bad champion, but he has a slim chance to win because he doesn't have that single punch power that can knockout anyone including Inoue.
So very hard pressed for him unless he really lucky to hit Inoue with a perfect punch that Inoue is not expecting and so his chin will react.
Just a couple of days before we see this fight, and honestly, It might not go to distance and hopefully there is no drama like the Casimero vs Akaho.
I really don't think there is drama here, everything is very clear, Butler is a boxer who doesn't talk much, Inoue is a very focused boxer, I don't know if he really cares about getting more fame or not, I've always seen him in a very calm and somewhat respectful way, this type of boxer are the ones who have the most discipline and the ones who make the most effort to do their job well, and it is for them that they get all my admiration and well, in addition to this it shows in the ring that does everything well, because Casimero wants to go against him, that's like counting the eggs before they are born, this fight will be very interesting.
