Topic: [Boxing] Stephen Fulton vs. Naoya Inoue | WBC &amp; WBO 122 lbs bout | July 25 - page 21. (Read 7043 times)

And Fulton - he's dominated this division for some time. Is Inoue up to the task of challenging his rule? We'll have to keep our eyes glued to the action to know. That's part of the buzz of the sport, isn't it?!

It was his time, but now it's Inoue's time. I may sound optimistic, but I don't see Fulton's skills being able to match up with Inoue's. I hope he won't regret changing his decision of not moving up to face Inoue. However, I have a feeling that Inoue will dominate him, and Fulton won't be able to withstand Inoue's powerful punches. Please note that I mean no disrespect to Fulton, but that's how I envision the fight unfolding.

I see as a fan and the basis from the previous fight of both fighters, Inoue's winning chance is higher than Fulton.

The decision though to stay in this current weight is really appreciable from the fans,
it gives Inoue a chance to strip it under his belt and earn the respect from this new division
but also on the other hand, if Fulton manages to upset Inoue, it will add more respect to
him and a good hypes for his career, more on the money side once he decided to move up
carrying the image that he beat the hot and sensation Inoue.

By now the injury must have been dealt already and overtime its already cured. If its not the fist that's broken, it wouldn't be a big deal in the fight. Inoue is not old yet, there is no way he can't get used to the weight after few months.

One more advantage with this fight is that Fulton vs Inoue fight will be held in Japan. He'll do his best to impress his fellow country men to give them an spectacular KO.

On paper, it seems that almost all advantages are pointing towards Naoya Inoue, leaving the current 2-belt champion, Steph Fulton, as the underdog in their upcoming bout.

Personally, I cannot really bring myself to oppose whatever is laid in-front of us now and favor the champion because even if Inoue is just the challenger here in Fulton's division and this is his first fight at 122, it's just real hard to go for the opposite way and bet against the crowd favorite.

It might be hard to think about the possible outcome for now because I also don't want to underestimate Fulton, but in this instance, I will go with the Japanese monster.

It isn't just the crowd but the talent and ability of Inoue speaks for itself. Inoue had a flawless performance in 118 lbs, and 122 is just one division higher, and the time he moves to 122 lbs, he is already having a hard time to catch up with the 118 lbs weight requirement. So the moving up in division of Inoue is believed to be the perfect timing and is due. I also think that there will be no reduction on Inoue's speed and reaction plus his punching power will increase due to added mass which make Inoue more deadly.

That is the reason I think why Fulton is underdog despite of being a champion and good record in this coming fight.

Your positivity about his amplified punch power and swiftness is admirable, but keep in mind, "when we assume, we risk making donkeys out of ourselves?"

Well there is science behind punches being heavier when a person gain weight. So it is not just an assumption. Besides, I never stated that his speed and reaction will be amplified, but rather I stated that it could be maintained at least since gaining weight might make a boxer slower. Aside from that I did not say Inoue will 100% beat Fulton, did I? I just stated the possible reason I think why Inoue had been the favorite and Fulton being the underdog in this coming fight. And you are right in saying "assuming will risk making donkeys out of ourselves " . Grin

And Fulton - he's dominated this division for some time. Is Inoue up to the task of challenging his rule? We'll have to keep our eyes glued to the action to know. That's part of the buzz of the sport, isn't it?!

For sure, Inoue will be preparing hard for this fight. Although Inoue is the favorite he knows he shouldn't underestimate Fulton because he is the current "king" of the two title in line. Anyway, that what makes the fight more interesting, having the Champion as the underdog.

The suggestion that he's been wrestling with the 118 lbs limit implies that the 122 lbs class could be a better fit for him. His prowess at bantamweight was unquestionable, and a modest weight increase might turn the tables even more in his favor. However, we must not entirely dismiss the trials that come with stepping into a new weight division. It's not just a matter of adding weight, but the efficiency with which he utilizes it. Your positivity about his amplified punch power and swiftness is admirable, but keep in mind, "when we assume, we risk making donkeys out of ourselves?"

And Fulton - he's dominated this division for some time. Is Inoue up to the task of challenging his rule? We'll have to keep our eyes glued to the action to know. That's part of the buzz of the sport, isn't it?!

Considering that Inoue's having an issue with reducing his weight means that he will be more comfortable in this division, that will give him
more solid power punch and in terms of quickness, it's not a big deal for him.

122lbs is just a division away from his previous weight, so the adjustment is not that hard, plus the fact that he will be fighting in front of his own
fans, that adds inspirations and by culture we know pride is really important to every Japanese fighter.

Inoue can use that as an additional boost to hype his performance and to win these fights.

Might be easy to say because we are not the ones who are fighting directly against Steph Fulton who have been owning the division for quite some years now but for Inoue, he's not taking it easy because after all, this is not his division and it's not yet guaranteed that he will perform impressively in this division compared to what we saw him while he was still at 118. But you got some points, it's just a 4 pounds heavier compared to bantamweight so I guess he will not be having some troubles in this division.

It is unfortunate when injuries can do things against us, because looking at it from one point of view, a boxer who has at least one injury is the vulnerability that the other boxer will take advantage of, and that is something that has a high value, for me things They cannot occur that way, I have Practiced this sport, and the worst injury that there can be and that is silent is that of the shoulder, because for me a boxer has the greatest strength there, not in the forearms but in the shoulders,but Whether it's on the wrist or hands, it's more Bearable, but one Shoulder gives everything.

Indeed, an injury will truly affect the movements of a boxer.

even that fighter can endure the pain but the limitations with his capabilities will really compromise, I see your point as you experienced this sport and you understand it well, with that shoulder injuries that you are mentioning I agree with you that it's harder to move if you have that pain, your flexibility can be exposed and your opponents can easily detect that and will take the advantages against you.

Just like what happened to Vasyl Lomachenko, just a few weeks before his fight with Teofimo Lopez, Loma happened to have an injury in his rotator cuff which is situated right on top his shoulder which literally gave him a trouble throwing good punches towards his challenger, Lopez, because having that kind of injury will really give the boxer a hard time for even lifting his arm as that is so painful.

If he didn't got that injury, his upcoming fight with Haney was already finished years ago and we may have known the outcome already because Loma only lacked the WBC which Haney possess at that time.

Inoue is in a difficult position, first he is considered to be one of the best boxers in the world, for me he is, second the sudden change in weight, and that influences any boxer if it causes a very big change, because the blows they have to endure are more intense, and that is something that cannot be avoided, not feeling it, the only way is with very strong training, at high levels of demand, this means that the work that Inoue must be doing He must be very strong , and even then nothing is guaranteed, not even a victory, it is difficult even though he is a very favorite.

Inoue's hand heals; Fulton fight rebooked for July 25th

Quote

Former world bantamweight champion Naoya “Monster” Inoue has recovered from his hand injury and has rescheduled his ambitious move up to junior featherweight where he will challenge WBC / WBO super bantamweight champion Stephen Fulton. The new date and venue for the super bout is July 25th at Ariake Arena in Koto-Ku, Japan. Originally both warriors were going to clash on May 7th but due to Inoue’s injury to one of his fists, it had to be postponed.
Inoue (24-0, 21 KOs) 19-0 with 17 knockouts in world title fights, a championship streak that began in 2014 when he knocked out Adrián Hernández for the WBC 108-pound title. He then went on to the super flyweight division where he won a title and then made seven title defenses, including a second-round knockout of Omar Narváez. At bantamweight, Inoue became the division’s first undisputed champion in half a century, defeating Emmanuel Rodríguez in two rounds to win the IBF belt, beating Nonito Donaire in the 2019 Fight of the Year to add the IBF belt, defeating Donaire in the second round in their June 2022 rematch to wrest the WBC title from him and dominating then-WBO champion Paul Butler.

Another good thing with this fight is that it will also happen as the same week with Crawford vs. Spence. So that might be one week that boxing fans will remember as we will be giving a fight that we all wanted to see.

Yes, that week will be exciting to most boxing fans and enthusiast, as both fights are waited for long, especially the Terence Crawford vs.Errol Spence Jr. Welterweight Unification Fight .

Supposedly, we should already know the result of the Naoya Inoue vs. Stephen Fulton match as the fight was originally dated this month but shit happened on Inoue's side although it's not intentional. No choice but to moved it on July.

What an upcoming wonderful treat in July where we will witness 2 big fights. Not just a big achievement for the winners of these respective fights but the win will be cemented on their legacy.

Let's hope that nothing major problem or issues will happened while approaching the date.

Yeah, since the Inoue got injured already and this is a reschedule fight.

As for the Crawford vs Spence, yeah, same thing, hopefully there will be no injury suffered by training from either side because we have waited for this fight for so long that even if it is officially declared, some of us might still question if the fight is really happening or not.

Anyhow, it has been declared by both camps, so maybe it's just we are still in shock. But yeah, we will be treated in the last week of July.

We can't blame the crowd if that's how they felt towards the upcoming unification fight between Terence Crawford and Errol Spence Jr. because even us here in this forum that is frequently talking about the sport, we are also doubting about the existence of their fight as we know every phases they've been through before they finally reached a deal.

Still, we shouldn't be confident about the news as everything can happen in just a blink of an eye including an injury or a drama that will be created in the middle of nowhere that will probably cost the fight. But hopefully we won't reach that point.

We don't want to hear that, injuries happening right now before the fight because again, it will be just pouring cold water again for us boxing fans because as you have said, even before the fight has been officially announced, it's been filled with drama and finger pointing, who should be the A-side, who is going to get the bigger purse etc, etc.

The only thing that we are confident now is that we have the date and it's official for the Spence and Crawford fight.

So it's like 8 weeks from here on in, so most likely trainings for this two has started and in full swing and it's just about the time that they are going to be in their peak within that 8 weeks of trainer.

My, oh my! The Inoue fan club seems to be in session! No denying the man's an absolute beast, his punches are like lightning strikes - they're fast, furious and seldom miss! But, let me play the devil's advocate here, shouldn't we be asking ourselves - how will he fare in the 122s? He might be king of the 118s, but this new weight class could be a different beast altogether!

As far as I read, Inoue is also worry about his capability in his new weight class. But I think he will fare good because his powerful punches is enough to make 122s to get KO'ed. Besides as his mass increase the strength of his punches will also increase since punch is also affected by the body weight. Not saying that there is not much difference between 118 and 122 lbs. If it is beyond 122lbs, then that is another story.

Do we remember Fulton? The man who faced Figueroa's storm and came out on top? If that's not grit, I don't know what is! I'm not saying Inoue isn't good, just that it might not be a cakewalk. And that, my friends, is why I love this sport! It's not just about who throws the hardest punch, but who stands up to them!

We'll never know until we seen them perform on the ring. It is obvious that Fulton is not to be underestimated and Inoue should prepare well against him. We all know Fulton is the champion and he won't be the champion if Fulton isn't skilled and tough.

It remains to be seen, but we have seen elite fighters moving up in weight, and be more destructive as they carry their power. So for me, the same case with Inoue here, it's just 4 lbs South, so I don't see him any issues whatsoever at 122 lbs.

It's different though, Figueroa is a volume puncher, but Inoue doesn't have that volume but every punch he deliver will either be a knockout punch or a body punch that it's hard to recover. We've seen that in the Davis vs Ryan fight, perform body shot and Garcia can't recover.

this is one of the few fights that has a lot of attention from the public but that has many postponements, there are already more than 2 postponements and as if that were not enough, the postponements also come with a change of places where the fight will take place, i I keep asking myself if there will even be a fight this year or we will see the fight next year, now they say they will fight on July 25th, with so many postponements I believe that people will only believe that they will fight on the day of the fight when they see the two fighters and the bookmakers will only add this fight probably 3 days before the fight and with good reason

in my case I'll just wait for the day of the fight to believe that the fight will really happen, they lost credibility with so many postponements, even if it was postponed for health reasons, it's still something that makes people lose a lot of interest and trust and expectation, people will probably only believe on the day of the fight, before that they won't believe it and that becomes a problem for the marketing guys of the two fighters who will have the mission of trying to create an image that this time there will be a fight and to capture the attention of the people

Just in my own opinion, Fulton is also pressured as for sure he wanted to keep his no loss standing.

But we will witness who's more hunger between the two when they already showing their skills, both will test each other,
and knowing both fighters, they are not afraid to take the challenge.

I like to see more from Fulton if how he will try to counter whatever Inoue will throw on him. One mistake may cause him
to fall down as fans will expect to see Inoue's solid combination to bring him the win.

Both of them are under pressure. Fulton is the champion, so he does not want to lose, while Inoue is also very popular because of his undefeated record, and most of his wins are via KO. Therefore, both boxers are staking their reputations here. It's not hard to predict the winner; just follow what the majority believes, and you'll be able to bet with confidence. I'm referring to Inoue being the favorite, so if you can take the moneyline odds and you feel satisfied with them, you are good to go.

Yes, obviously, Inoue is going to be the favorite in this fight, as he is one of the best boxers we have and in the pound for pound list, while Fulton is a great champion he almost lost to Brandon Figueroa and should be having their rematch, unfortunately, Fulton decided to chase Inoue, whil Figueroa goes up in weight and now a champion. And definitely, pressure fights here, but I believed that they have been in this kind of pressure and past with flying colors. Another good thing with this fight is that it will also happen as the same week with Crawford vs. Spence. So that might be one week that boxing fans will remember as we will be giving a fight that we all wanted to see.
