This is excellent news for the upcoming fight. As a fan, I don't mind the postponement as long as we have a new date for the bout. With this update, we no longer have to worry about the fight's uncertainty. The mega fight is still on, and I just hope that Inoue's power has not been affected so he can display the same ferocity in the ring that we've seen before.

Ok, here the latest date for this fight,
https://www.instagram.com/p/CqW-nS1KZpJ/
The news came for their official IG account, so the fight is still a go this July as we expected it to be around June or something. But at least for fans for Inoue, we will have a date and no postponement for this fight. And it's 4 months for now, not sure if Fulton will get a tune up fight, or just remain active in the gym or take a break from training and only go back like May for another 8 weeks final training for this fight. Same with Inoue, probably if he had undergone surgery it can heal in the next 2 months and hitting the gym by May as well.

I have read an article and accordingly, the fight will probably happen this coming July this year.
Regarding the injury that Inoue suffered, you can read the full article, as it states that the injury was in his fist. Perhaps he hit too hard, and that's why it happened. Not too long to wait as it was only postponed for a month or so, but it's assured that the fight will happen this year since Inoue did not suffer a major injury.

When will Stephen Fulton and Naoya Inoue fight?
As of now, Fulton vs. Inoue will take place in the summer. Per a recent press conference, Ohashi stated the fight will be held in July in the Tokyo metropolitan area (Tokyo, Saitama, and Kanagawa are being discussed as options).
The former last fought in June, while Inoue's last fight in the summer was in June 2022 against Nonito Donaire. The fight calendar is wide open in June and July, meaning there are no major dates off the table.

In any case, what is the latest news? Is this fight only postponed or is there a chance of a cancellation? This might give a chance for Casimero to enter the show if he can challenge someone with a high rank in super bantamweight.
As for now, the status is "postponed", and no rumors of it being canceled. Seems that Fulton's camp is just fine waiting for the rescheduled date to give way on Inoue's full recovery. As per ETA, the rescheduled date will be in Japan's summer period.
As for Casimero, it's easy to challenge those boxers at high rank but the problem is, these top-ranked boxers are not interested "for now" to face Casimero. Quadro Alas should at least settle to fight first at those low ranked and build again his name to be recognized.
Currently, it's good that Casimero has an upcoming fight now. He just needs to continue winning until being involved again in the contender's discussion.
Can't agree more. If Casimero can't work his way to the top again, I'm afraid he'll never get a chance to fight Inoue in the future. He will need to win all his upcoming match up. I'm not sure if they can arrange a fight between Fulton and Casimero, not sure either if that's possible, but it would be a very good start for Casimero if he wins it to build his name again in the top caliber fighters.
There's no doubt that he will be able to climb up. Casimero has been dominating so far, and his power was very evident in his previous fights. That's why I'm expecting a knockout every time he fights against a non-caliber fighter. Hopefully, Casimero will have a chance to fight Fulton in the future. I think that could be a very good fight before the biggest fight in the super bantamweight division happens, which is Casimero vs. Inoue.

Agree to this statement, if Casimero will convince the council chances that they will set him to fight with a much
higher ranks from this division or they might set him up and give him that opportunity to fight the champ.
All will be dependent from how he will bring hypes to his upcoming fight and drives the attention of both fans and the organizations.
Who knows if they will allow him to challenge Fulton because of the postponement of the fight against Inoue.
Fulton seemed ready to fight Inoue regardless of the circumstances, so unless the recovery of Inoue will take a long time I could see him waiting for him, however I would not be surprised if then Inoue preferred to get an easy fight first to see how his hand is doing and only then fight Fulton, this could open the opportunity for Casimero or other boxer to fight Fulton and then we could finally see Fulton fighting Inoue, Casimero vs Inoue, on the case Casimero happened to beat Fulton, or simply the fight gets canceled as Fulton moves up a division.higher ranks from this division or they might set him up and give him that opportunity to fight the champ.

on what are those things to have on his mind. It is really just that sad that Inoue did really commit out some injuries before the fight which it isnt really that something considering that this could happen
on any sports events or match ups.Honestly we are really that wanting to see this one but we know that extreme preparations could lead up into injuries which they should really be
minding since from the start but well inflamation of tendons doesnt really last up?
i know the feeling of anticipation for this fight, however, it is good that inoue is just true to himself and disclose his injury. unlike some boxers who were injured before the fight, and they will reveal later on that they were injured, hence, the loss. so much better this way, tell to the boxing community he's not 100% up to give his best performance. now, we don't know if fulton can wait or they will just go separate ways for the moment. in any case, bets are off on this one.
As for Fulton then what i do have in mind is that he would be might waiting for Inoue to heal up because if we do look on how high the hype around between this two then he wont really be that
dumb on not to compare and see on how much he would purse up for this fight rather than on going into those ordinary fights if he would decide to step up or wait for another unknown opponent.

Well, no matter how ready Fulton is, it looks like the camp of Inoue had already announced and canceled the fight that is supposed to be scheduled on May 7 since Ioue believes that he won't be at 100% condition due to the suffered injury. It is understood since the injury happened on his fist, it might be difficult for him if it is not healed completely.
however I would not be surprised if then Inoue preferred to get an easy fight first to see how his hand is doing and only then fight Fulton, this could open the opportunity for Casimero or other boxer to fight Fulton and then we could finally see Fulton fighting Inoue, Casimero vs Inoue, on the case Casimero happened to beat Fulton, or simply the fight gets canceled as Fulton moves up a division.
It is possible for Inoue to have a tune-up fight but if he does that, he would be giving other boxers more chance to fight Fulton. And we all know Casimero and other boxers are also eyeing the title bout. So I think there is also a possibility that Inoue will go directly for a championship fight reducing the possibility of other boxer getting his chance.

@bisdak40. Agreed and it would be in a higher weight division where Casimero will not he overweight similar to what he has done in the bantamweight division.
In any case, what is the latest news? Is this fight only postponed or is there a chance of a cancellation? This might give a chance for Casimero to enter the show if he can challenge someone with a high rank in super bantamweight.

As per the latest news, this fight has been postponed. If Inoue needs more time to recover, then the fight may be cancelled. I'm not sure if Casimero is ready to fight a champion in this division yet. He may still need more fights to climb up the rankings and become a top challenger.
Hopefully Inoue will recover in a quicker time frame, but like what you mentioned, it can be cancelled if Inoue will be needed to take more time in curing the injury that he has right now.
In terms of Casimero, there' are still lots of challengers in this division before he can have that chance to challenge
the current champ. Or, if pressure from Fulton's camp will see the big potential of a money making fight for him.
That would be a great fight - Fulton vs Casimero. If Casimero wins, then Inoue will be the challenger against Casimero. If he does not fight Casimero, that would conclude that he is really dodging him.
As for Inoue's injury, there is no news about its development yet. But I guess it isn't serious, so he'll likely make a comeback this year.
Yes, if fate will turn that way, I mean if chance opens up for Casimero to fight Fulton for the title match and manages to win it against the current champ, we might see the possibility that Inoue will challenge him instead of Fulton.
If Inoue would not do it, we can then conclude that he or his camp is really avoiding Casimero, but I'm still
positive that if a case like this will happen, we will expect both camps to sign the contract and bring it
inside the ring.
We don't know, this injury of Naoya Inoue might open some doors to Casimero to step-up and fight Steph Fulton before the champion climbs the next weight class and if that happens, that will be a big thing to Casimero and hopefully he won't do such thing to waste this chance as this is the only way to make Inoue come to him as if he will succeed, that will mean that Casimero will be the new 2-belt champion and an encounter between Naoya and him is almost inevitable.
I'm saying this despite the fact that Casimero already got a bout this coming May because there is some rumor that I've heard that Casimero's fight is not yet a done deal, in other words, it's still blurry to fully materialize it. So, we don't know, there might be some twists in the coming weeks.

We cannot really blame them if that's what they wanted, after all, Inoue is a precious cash cow to Bob Arum and therefore he cannot really afford to see Inoue depreciate its value if in-case he is defeated. Anyway, there was once a supposed fight between the two of them but because of Covid-19, it wasn't pushed through. Now that they are both in the same division again, I hope their path will cross once again because people are already rooting for this to happen.
If only Casimero just did the right thing, then we should already see him clashing with Inoue. It's not being Inoue being a cash cow and they didn't avoid Casimero. It's just that Casimero is the reason why he become out of the discussion. I don't think Inoue is afraid of Casimero and even though I'm with Quadro Alas here, I didn't expect that he will have an easy win against Inoue.
More importantly, Casimero should not just pick top boxers but just negotiate a deal even with those below rankings just to have an active fight. As long as he keeps and continues winning, he will gain his rank and later on, will be included in the contender's discussion.
Yes, I also believe on the same thing. There is no such thing as Inoue scared to fight Casimero, I mean, Inoue already proved himself and already dealt with a lot of boxers that have a good names in the industry. Those facts alone are enough to say that Inoue wasn't scared at all, it's just that the circumstances between them became a stumbling block why the fight didn't materialized. These two got two chances to face but fate is not yet ready because no matter what angle we see, Casimero is not fitting anymore at 118 and what happened to him against Butler was imminent.

For now it seems that the fight is going to be scheduled sometime or until his injury is totally 100% healed.
And as I expected, it's a hand injury that he suffered during the sparring session, and if I'm not mistaken Inoue has history of this kind of injuries. Against Omar Narvaez and we all know that Inoue punches so hard, that's why it's just a matter of time before he broke his hands. Probably the same case with Canelo as well, punching so hard in the mitts, or in the actual fight causing them to have this injury. Might take time though, 3 months maybe before he can go back to sparring again and try that hand?
In the past, many KO artists for their hands destroyed as well. Floyd Mayweather JR. used to be a KO artist as well and then his KO rate dropped heavily as he started to move up in weight. But he did mention that his hands are broken, luckily for him, his got the skills to win thru decisions and a very good defense. Nonito Donaire at one time had swollen hands after his fight with WV2. The skull is one of the hardest bones right?
Yes, Floyd was notoriously known to have brittle hands when he goes up in weight. And if I'm not mistaken, there were some controversies as he got a shot of Lidocaine in his hands which is illegal in some state, but perfectly legal in his home town of Nevada. And what it does is that it numb the hands of Floyd so he can go and continue to fight even with this kind of conditions.
And again, if my memory serves me right, Inoue is using Cleto Reyes gloves, which is the favorite gloves for punchers like him or Manny, it has less padding though, that's why boxers who uses this tend to get injured. So there's also this important aspect of choosing the correct gloves for boxers as it can literally break or make them.
Speaking of Casimero, his past report to Pacman about the mishandling of its MP Promotions president Sean Gibbons might lead to the appointment of a new MP Promotions president. Casimero seriously needs to stay active though as he is not getting younger and he is in a bigger division as well. Just stay active and these sanctioning bodies will rank him higher since he is already a proven fighter, being a 3 division champion to his credit.
There's video of Pacquiao and Donaire talking about the case of Sean Gibbons hehehe.
Not clear though because the audio is not good, but you can hear Manny saying that Sean uses his name

Agree to this statement, if Casimero will convince the council chances that they will set him to fight with a much
higher ranks from this division or they might set him up and give him that opportunity to fight the champ.
All will be dependent from how he will bring hypes to his upcoming fight and drives the attention of both fans and the organizations.
Who knows if they will allow him to challenge Fulton because of the postponement of the fight against Inoue.

This is not the first time when it comes to Inoue's fight to be postponed, they might just not want to put high risk when it comes to his next fight because they are taking care of his clean record and current popularity. it's really bad to see them postponing this one because everyone seems to look forward to seeing Inoue's fight in this upper division but that does not really matter for them because this is how boxing nowadays, they become so soft that even a small injury will become a reason for a fight to be postponed which was not the case in the past.

As per the latest news, this fight has been postponed. If Inoue needs more time to recover, then the fight may be cancelled. I'm not sure if Casimero is ready to fight a champion in this division yet. He may still need more fights to climb up the rankings and become a top challenger.
Casimero will be having a match against an unknown boxer this coming May, I think the chance of fighting the current champion of his division is dependent on his performance in his upcoming fight. If he shows great dominance in his fight he might get an opponent at a higher ranking position then a possible title shot if he will dominate or KO'ed his next opponents.
As of this moment, Casimero needs to convince the boxing council that he can give an exciting fight against the champion.
Agree to this statement, if Casimero will convince the council chances that they will set him to fight with a much
higher ranks from this division or they might set him up and give him that opportunity to fight the champ.
All will be dependent from how he will bring hypes to his upcoming fight and drives the attention of both fans and the organizations.
Who knows if they will allow him to challenge Fulton because of the postponement of the fight against Inoue.

@bisdak40. Agreed and it would be in a higher weight division where Casimero will not he overweight similar to what he has done in the bantamweight division.

Hopefully Inoue will recover in a quicker time frame, but like what you mentioned, it can be cancelled if Inoue will be needed to take more time in curing the injury that he has right now.
In terms of Casimero, there' are still lots of challengers in this division before he can have that chance to challenge
the current champ. Or, if pressure from Fulton's camp will see the big potential of a money making fight for him.
That would be a great fight - Fulton vs Casimero. If Casimero wins, then Inoue will be the challenger against Casimero. If he does not fight Casimero, that would conclude that he is really dodging him.
As for Inoue's injury, there is no news about its development yet. But I guess it isn't serious, so he'll likely make a comeback this year.
