        Could say the same for Canelo and a bunch of others.

            Imo, 126 will be his max and thats pretty impressive considering monster started at 108,but just imagine naoya moving up and dominating all those guys too with same ease ,like damn, 130 next then? Pacquiao all over again.

              What do you mean by improve the quality of his opposition? Do you think fighters at featherweight are or better quality than those at bantamweight and super bantamweight?

                Pac's style is what allowed him to go through the weight classes. He fought from angles, used beautiful lateral movements and his speed as well as his power just overwhelmed bigger guys. He hurt guys hitting them with punches they weren't expecting. He befuddled great fighters because he was so different.

                Floyd was a good puncher but his defense allowed him to move up higher and higher in weight. He had enough pop to keep guys off him and he was one of the best defensive fighters ever.

                I don't see that in Inoue. He has uncanny power and a great chin. But he pretty much walks guys down and he hits so much harder than the rest of the guys in these weight classes that they just end up running and eventually get hurt. That will only carry so far. He is going to run into guys who hit just as hard and who can take his power. And then he will get beat. He is fun to watch and I like him. But I don't see him getting anywhere near WW.

                  I think he’s fine at 122. Hopefully he cleans out the division and makes the Nakatani super fight before going to 126. I think that is where he maxes out.

                  Maybe if he is undefeated, he maybe makes the Tank fight as a last fight, cash out payday.

                    The writer said the guy with 27 KOs in 35 wins is someone Inoue shouldn't have gotten knocked down from lol.

                    He should stay at 122. Buuuut, as he goes up in weight, so does the money.
