I can't tell if inoue is really that good or if the talent in those weight classes is just super thin
Thats where Im at. But people that know what theyre talking about talk how good he is. His body shots are off the chart. If he wins, it will him vs Donaire later this year, which would be fun.
Busy day of boxing. First up: DAZN, 2:00 pm ET, Josh Taylor vs Ivan Baranchyk, Naoya Inoue vs Emmanuel Rodriguez. Two semifinal fights for the WBSS at 140 and 118, respectively, live from Glasgow. Taylor-Baranchyk is a good fight and the winner moves on to face Regis Prograis. Inoue-Rodriguez is a good fight and the winner moves on to face Nonito Donaire. It’s just that simple. Fwiw, would expect the two big fights here to start closer to 4 PM. Inoue is worth the price of admission over on DAZN.
And then: SHO, 9:00 pm ET, Deontay Wilder vs Dominic Breazeale, Gary Russell Jr vs Kiko Martinez, Juan Heraldez vs Argenis Mendez. This is about as good as Showtime is getting on a Saturday night in 2019, it seems. Wilder-Breazeale isn’t what anyone asked for, but it has a good chance of at least being an explosive heavyweight fight. Both big boys can punch. Russell-Martinez is your Mr. Gary Russell Jr fight for 2019, probably, unless he can actually get a big fight, and Heraldez-Mendez is a nice matchup of an unbeaten but unproven guy against a still-solid veteran.
Prograis-Taylor is going to be a war. I’m worried about what will remain of Donaire after facing Inoue.
I didn’t get to watch today. Traveling all day. That Donaire Inoue fight will be fantastic. Inoue got to start getting recognition as a top P4P guy
