    Inoue could be that man. There's potential.

    Will he make the moves however? So far he's jumped 3 divisions, and it's likely he will keep on going.

      Naoya Inoue no doubt is the future of Asian boxing!

        Pacquiao was a once in a lifetime athlete. Absolutely INCREDIBLE performances in his prime.

        He demolished Oscar, Cotto, Hatton, etc.

        No, we will never see another Pacquiao. Not for like another 30 years.

        He didn’t become the top 3 ATG boxer and probaly top 5 highest PPV selling boxer for no effen reason.

          Inoue could be the man to do it. He has similarities, and he looks like he doesn't want to stay in divisions for too long. Already jumped 4 times.

          When he likely beats Donaire, either Tete grows some balls and unifies or he will jump again and not wait.

            No, I dont think we will ever see anything like Paq again. Im obviously a huge RJ fan and I know its cliche now but I truly believe nobody beats him at his best. If all things were equal Pac would have a shot. People will hate on fighters for any manner of reasons but you cant argue with facts, Paq is still beating prime undefeated champions at 40 years old. He has done this after winning straps in 8 divisions, good luck topping that. People will always find a reason to diminish a fighter but what they have done will always be.

            He is with out a doubt top ten P4P historically.

              Inoue is looking promising. 3 divisions already, he looks like he isn't staying in divisions for long.

              As the topic says, I want a fighter who did what Pac did. Goes up the weights, and fights over his weight with power and quality still there. Inoue has scary power that could remain even in higher weights like Pac.

              We will see soon. Maybe he moves up after winning the WBSS

                I honestly dont want to watch that fight. I mean I obviously do but Ive always liked Donaire but i think Inoue is gonna crush him.

                  Maybe he can, he is a scary mfer for sure where he is now. We have never seen anything like Paq before so there is no ceiling. Im rooting for the dude I just hope he doesnt give Donaire Downs.

                    The easiest path to equal GrandPac's 8-division conquest would be to start as a teen (room for body growth) at 105 moving up to 126 and then catchweight 130 down to 127 while picking the weakest link champions... Instant 8-division champion with only 22 lbs. weight difference (I think that's the smallest gap to make it possible)...

                    Then there comes other problems along the way (speed, power, stamina, chin, etc.)... And then boxers from lower weight classes are rarely popular with PPV powers... That even excludes fighting some of the best guys from a division...

                      Probably not with random Olympic style testing now becoming a norm
