We will see, Fulton is going to public and says that he is not afraid of Inoue's power. So maybe they have a game plan on how they are going to play with Inoue's power or exploit his weakness if they have seen one already.

So the champ is very confident in his ability. Because if not then he wouldn't travel to Inoue's country.

And speaking of that, I saw video clips or at least news that Fulton is already in Japan and most likely he is trying to acclimatized himself already.

That's what some of Inoue's opponents have mentioned before their fights. They initially claim not to be afraid to face him, but once they experience Inoue's power, they often change their strategy and focus more on surviving the fight rather than aiming for a victory. Hopefully, we will witness a different scenario in this upcoming fight.

It's very different if you really see first hand and feel the power of Inoue. And I'm sure those who give him the monicker is telling the truth as he has a good KO percentage.

So most likely the same case with Stephen Fulton, he could be hyping himself here. But it's going to be different when they are just the 2 guys standing in the square ring and he can't avoid the power punches of Naoya Inoue.

He will be testing his capabilities as he's the current champ from this division, so what we expect from him, He might be hyping
his name, but for me that's should a fighter react.

When you are the current champ and a challenger is challenging you, instead of old of avoiding you should be preparing and should
willing to take that call.

I believe that we can only conclude this once there's already an outcome, though the edge might be in the side of Inoue..

I somehow feel that Futon could give Inoue a tough fight, but it never crossed my mind that he would actually defeat Inoue. In all of Inoue's fights, he has never really struggled to secure a victory. If it doesn't end in a knockout, he usually wins by unanimous decision. Therefore, I don't see any significant difference in this fight, even though some people speculate that the move to a new division might affect Inoue's power.

Good point on Fulton being inactive, but I think he can overcome it though, sign of great boxers, so for sure he might have adjusted already.

On thing is that this is the first time that Inoue is going to 122 lbs, so that is only the big question whether he can cope with the weight or it's going to be a big plus for him as he will not have to weight drain just like in 118 lbs.

So let's see if Fulton will be the first one to give Inoue that big L on his record or Inoue continue on making history in boxing.

I wouldn't question Inoue's capacity. Even if he may not be as dominant as he was in the bantamweight division, I still believe that in a close fight, Inoue will come out on top. Judging from Fulton's past performances, I think Inoue's quickness will be able to counter his style. In the end, if the fight goes to the judges' scorecards, the boxer fighting in his home country will likely be given the win.

Yes, that is very likely but I wouldn't want to see Inoue winning in the hands of the judge's scorecards especially if the fight is close enough because it will not be a good image for him as people will just see that he was given a favor because the fight was contested on his country. But I'm kind of confident that it will not reach into the judge's decision, no offense to Fulton's fans, but just like you mate, I've also reviewed some of Fulton's fight and I can somehow say as well that Inoue's swiftness and power can do the trick,

I go with you. I also want to see a KO. Knowing how powerful Inoue was, I wonder if he will attract Fulton to engage, and they will have
a toe-to-toe confrontation

The chance of seeing Fulton kiss the floor is really possible; we just need that engagement, and we will enjoy this fight.

Nothing against Fulton, as he's the current champ, but if ever a confrontation or a toe-to-toe exchange of punches takes place,
The chance that we might see Fulton receive his first loss.

On this fight, I have the same thoughts as with you. As I have said, I'm seeing Fulton as trying to get very tough and will want to proved that this is his division. He might run though and will used his boxing IQ and try not to fight toe to toe in the beginning. That Figueroa shows that Fulton too has heart and will not go down easily so let's see if he can do that and last the distance against Inoue here. Yes, lots of fights this July so it's really hard where and who to bet to, maybe a good parlay will do as well.

If Fulton have the reach advantage then it would be the smart move to strike from the distance avoiding face to face confrontation because we all know that Inoue is a devastating boxer especially when he get his opponent in his range. The body punch maybe the huge factor here so if Fulton can withstand these body punches then there is a huge possibility that he maybe able to outmaneuver and outbox Inoue.

It is somehow hard to say that Inoue has huge advantage here since Fulton is also an elite class boxer. Fulton has lots of tricks on his sleeve that he may use against Inoue in order to nullify the strategy of the monster Inoue.

By the way guys, be sure to lock in your bets while we still have more time as the lines might not be the same anymore inside the 48 hours span. Good luck!

Thanks for the reminder, I haven't lock in my bet, and when I check it though, almost all options are now open.

I might look for "Will the fight is going to distance", as the odds are still very attractive to me. Yes at 2.03 and No at 1.70.

I haven't locked my bet in this fight as well unlike the Crawford vs Spence where I already locked in the 1.77 odds because I thought the WBO champion will keep on gaining favor. Cheesy

But thanks for the reminder because I realized I am yet to bet on the Donaire-Santiago bout which happens already next week.

I am also looking at the odds if the fight goes the distance or not though I might also take an Inoue ML at 1.30 something. I have confidence the Inoue will win even when this fight goes to the hands of the judges. But of course, I want to see KOs and TKOs. Inoue is yet to fight in this new division and we'll see if he is capable of hurting the top dogs, especially Fulton who already proved his big heart and tough chin after surviving the Figueroa unification bout where he won in a very close debatable decision. Fulton was hurt several times by Figueroa but was able to hold on and was never down once.

Yeah, I am as well curious as to how Fulton will fight Inoue. He surprised us when he fought toe to toe most of the time against Figueroa. I am also thinking that Fulton will use his boxing skills to outbox Inoue but maybe he will surprise us again by trying to become the aggressor. Maybe he will clinch or corner Inoue and then box in the inside which would need a lot of strength and energy. I doubt Inoue is used to fighting a dirty battle which would deprive him to utilize his best asset which is his blinding speed.

Maybe a parlay on Inoue and Donaire makes sense. And if you want to make the odds near 2.0 you can add AJ as well. Another exciting fight is between Oscar Valdez and Emanuel Navarette, it's a guaranteed war pretty sure.

We will know what kind of performance he will give to the people during the fight itself.
But right now, we can just speculate on what may possibly happen inside the ring.
Also, Japanese people are one of the honest people on earth, so I don't think the judges will favor him on this match.
And when it comes to going up this weight division, it is only 4lbs higher, so it is not that much that will give him trouble.
By now, he is already adjusted to this weight because he has training as well. Couple more weeks and we will see this much anticipated fight.

If ever that there would be some odd scoring or points on those judges then for sure it would really be creating that kind of issue on which it would really be reflecting out on what truly happens inside the ring.

Its true that Japanese people are really that honest which i dont really have any doubts in regarding about scoring or whatsoever. We fans arent really that blind on whose been humiliated or simply on what
would be their performance inside the ring in between fighters. Lots of speculations around on which some would be saying that this would be a simple fight for Inoue but there are ones who
would really be saying that he shouldnt really be that confident or really making some underestimation, considering that Fulton is the champion of this division then its not really that simple
to take such belt.

My reasoning might be speculative but it might help anyone who is looking to bet on this game. Some of you might question why Naoya Inoue challenged Stephen Fulton. The reason is simple, he is exceptionally talented, and with his accuracy to punch hard, he is worthy to challenge Stephen Fulton. Stephen Fulton has an impressive boxing record, he has shown the world his impressive defensive skills, and impressive footwork but lacks attacking abilities as per my understanding. Overall this would be an interesting match to watch and my research says that Naoya Inoue is a little better than Stephen Fulton. If betting is my primary objective, then I would bet on Naoya Inoue.

It's not a question why Inoue challenged Fulton, definitely he has the talent, it's the question on whether he can do it a a new weight class wherein he doesn't have the experience and we don't know if he can bring his power to this level.

Stephen Fulton has face a lot of great boxers as 122 lbs, for sure this could be his toughest test to date. But he is also confident that he can beat and take that 0 from Inoue. And another factor is that Fulton is a slick black fighter and it seems that Inoue hasn't fought this kind of boxer. All the boxer he fought wants to go toe to toe and not using movement at all.

Inoue is quick; he is capable of catching Fulton and possibly knocking him out. With Fulton's low KO rate, Inoue can be more aggressive and pursue him. It's true that Inoue has not fought a boxer like Fulton before, but at the same time, Fulton has not faced a fighter like Inoue either. So if there's a challenge here, I believe it will be for Fulton.

Well, I think Fulton is the boxer who deserves it the most, at the same time he could give Inoue a warm welcome and make him see that moving up in a category is not just anything, that it is something that requires a lot of level, for me what Fulton has done It is having the necessary merits for that, Casimero could also, personally I don't care whoever Inoue fights with, what I do want is to see Inoue, see how he will face the way of receiving blows, how he can take it or if it will be Quite a walk for him, for me Inoue is like those genius boxers that no matter where they put him, he will always win, I imagine that the training that will be given is from another world.

Stephen Fulton On Traveling To Japan For Inoue Clash: "I Believe In My Ability"

Quote

Rarely has Naoya Inoue needed to step into hostile territory. For the 30-year-old, he’s a rockstar in his native land of Japan. Still, despite his celebrity status reaching an all-time high, if Inoue wanted to take the next step in his career, it appeared as though he would have no choice but to make his way stateside.

After casually stripping every 118-pounder of their world title, Inoue (24-0, 21 KOs) vacated his undisputed throne and brazenly made the move up in weight. Unwilling to take a soft touch in his super bantamweight debut, Inoue took aim at current WBC and WBO titlist, Stephen Fulton.

Ultimately, Fulton’s championship status meant little during negotiations as the 28-year-old has decided to pack his bags and head halfway across the world. On July 25th, at the Ariake Arena, in Japan, Fulton (21-0, 8 KOs) will officially defend his titles for the second time.

If he wanted, Fulton could have moaned and groaned over the location of their showdown. But, of course, money talks, as Fulton was handed a large sum of money to placate his wishes. Having signed his name o

Inoues quickness will be a key here, as we know that even he climbed up to this division it's not that far from his last one and he dominated as he successfully unfied all the belts.

In terms of Fulton giving Inoue his possible first lost, that really something that he will bring all in on this fight. Both are in a mission here, and only one can declared a Champ unless the announcers declared it as draw.

we cant really make out some conclusions yet just because Inoue had able to dominate that previous division that he's into but it true that there might really be that kind of possibility on which he might

be able to make this fight be simple just like on other fights that he had. If Inoue that able to retain that speed and solid punches or good counters then i wouldnt be also having no doubt that he could really be able to beat up Fulton but since we are talking the champion for this weight division then this wont really be a walk in the park for Inoue.

Fulton wont be called a champion for nothing which i would definitely say that it would really be that giving a good damn fight for Inoue. He would really be needing
some ways on landing up a solid body blow just like on his previous fights on which it did result into TKO,but lets see.

I do agree that this is not a walk in the park for Inoue but judging from their last fights, we can say that the Japanese Monster has the edge plus the fact that Fulton is inactive for more than a year which makes things worse for him or we say that makes the American the underdog which also makes this fight exciting and interesting as this will be Inoue's first fight in the 122lbs division, an acid test for him if he brings his power to this division which is uncertain but the bookies still believe in him.

It's just interesting to note that both camps have been so silent going into this fight, with no thrash-talking whatsoever that will add hype for this fight.

Good point on Fulton being inactive, but I think he can overcome it though, sign of great boxers, so for sure he might have adjusted already.

On thing is that this is the first time that Inoue is going to 122 lbs, so that is only the big question whether he can cope with the weight or it's going to be a big plus for him as he will not have to weight drain just like in 118 lbs.

So let's see if Fulton will be the first one to give Inoue that big L on his record or Inoue continue on making history in boxing.

Nevertheless, Fulton is a very different bread of champion, I mean he held 2 belts already and defeated a great challenger in Brandon Figueroa. So it will be a big test for him to travel to Japan and challenge their home town hero in Inoue. So expecting to be a great fight between this two great champion.

We know that, but how come he is still the underdog despite his achievements? Perhaps people don't see him as an impressive fighter or at the same level as Inoue. Despite Inoue being the challenger, he remains the heavy favorite to win the fight. If we base it on their records, maybe Fulton is truly competitive. However, once they are in the ring, things can be different.

There's no doubt about Fulton's talent and competitiveness but people do know that they are on a complete different level even if they are on the same weight class. It's not that they are not confident with Fulton, it's just that they have to choose from these two and it will be a hard challenge to stand against the former undisputed at 118. Besides, people do know as well that Inoue is a different breed of monster especially if he is up against competitive boxers as that will make him evolve more into a different monster.

yes absolutely Fulton is a good one without a doubt he is one of the best fighters in his division which means that he is a good fighter and have a strong body build. But in this match we will see how inoue will handled a veteran and a strong fighter but in inoues case without a doubt also he can win the fight once he figure out what is the weakness of Fulton where is the best part that Fulton hurt to much once a punch will landed.

For Fulton and Inoue, only two weeks to go before their fight night and since this fight has been through some delays, so yes, we can say that both camps are just having some few touch ups so that they will not overtrain and derail from their intended goals. They wouldn't want that for sure and I know that both of them is excited already and excited to have this fight, finally.

Everyone is excited, I'm sure. This is going to be one of the best fights this year, especially for those of us who have followed Inoue's journey. It may not be as popular as the Crawford vs. Spence and Davis vs. Garcia fights, but the kind of intensity we are looking for in a boxing match is here, thanks to Inoue. I hope Fulton coordinates by giving Inoue what he wants, instead of hitting and running around.

There's no need to compare these two to Crawford and Spence's league because they have their own set of fans that will surely watch the fight and for the avid fans out there, both of the fights will surely be an interesting sight to see and it will be a missed chance if we will let this slide as this kind of fights are not happening every year especially in this era.

Yes, but the good thing is that the fight is going to happen the same week, so going to be a great weekends for boxing fans to have to unification fights and fighters are undefeated.
