i Won’t blame boogie for missing this as it was Thursday at 7am EST. Who does that?

I saw it on my calendar this past weekend and had to doublecheck it was t a mistake. I marked it down but had an early meeting so couldn’t make it.

I haven’t had a chance to watch more than the highlights, but supposedly a FOY candidate that inoue won convincingly. With that said, seems like Donaire was able to hit him and make him seem beatable— even wobbling him in the 9/10. Ultimately though, Inoue showed a different dimension and was able to come back from trouble and still put Donaire on the canvas with a vicious liver shot— almost ending the fight.


Right afterwards they announced Inoue signed with Top Rank so he’s coming to America

"though time has passed, im still the future" (c) black thought

Inoue signing with TR is pretty dope, but I doubt he will have a draw.

Checked boxing scene the night before and was like "why are they having a weigh in on a Wednesday?" At any rate ... agree that it was a FOTY candidate. Admittedly, this was my first exposure to Inoue, and although he looked beatable, I was impressed with how he rallied in the championship rounds

Donaire is a true warrior, much respect to him
