Dmitriy Kel Dec. 25, 2023, 1:28 p.m.

IBF and WBA world champion in second bantamweight Marlon Tapales (37-3, 19 KOs) shared his mood on the eve of the fight with the owner of the other two belts Naoei Inoue (25-0, 22 KOs), which will take place tomorrow, December 26, in Tokyo

ā€œI am motivated from the bottom of my heart and am preparing for a resounding victory. I'mĀ ready to beat Naoya Inoue, I'mĀ going to knock him out. IĀ consider Naoya to be a great, experienced andĀ smart boxer. But I know that all the hard work I did during training camps in Las Vegas and the Philippines prepared me for this moment.

I am well aware that I am not a favorite according to the bookmakers. But I donā€™t care, the result will be different from their opinion,ā€ Boxing Social quotes the Filipino as saying.
