Arum opposed the organization of the fight between Inoue and Davis

“Inoue started his career at 49 kg and rose to 55 kg. He is an incredible star in Japan. At the same time, almost no one there knows who Gervonta Davis is. Why should Inoue, who is not up to 55 kg in size, fight with a guy who, by and large, is in the 63 kg limit? This doesn't make any sense. To put Inoue against a 63kg fighter, you have to be a fool, and the Japanese are not fools.”
