Naoya Inoue, arguably Japan's most promising boxing star, has his sights set on a lofty goal for 2017: to become a bigger global star. The unbeaten WBO super flyweight champion said that he wouldn't hesitate to fight against the weight division's best boxers in the world if given the chance.

I'm so stoked about Inoue. Haven't been this excited about a young fighter since Nonito Donaire.

Good get him exposure on hbo or showtime or free tv build him up to fans set up superfight with chocolito

[r1onnie2]

This dude is a problem!

[Marvlus Marv]

He is a monster, alright. I can barely imagine what a Gonzalez vs Inoue fight would look like. I think he's the only guy that could beat lil choc at super fly. He's a huge punching, fleet footed, Japanese phenomenon.

I hope so... heard that he already has hand problems which i hope are not true and do not affect him in future fights. Got to dream about him and Chocolatito... what a fight that would be.

He's definitely a little beast with his quickness AND power; kinda reminds me of Prince Naseem but low key.

2015 was a big setback because of his hands after building great momentum in 2014, I was expecting him to fight on a major network in America in 2016 which didn't happen so that's a shame. He needs to be built up in America like Gonzales has been as co-main for some Golovkin fights.

The thing with Inoue is he has age on his side but he may never become a big star purely because of his weight class, the talent is there but I just hope he can showcase it against the likes of Gonzales this year.
