Legendary American promoter Bob Arum shared his opinion about the absolute champion in the second lightweight Naoya Inoue.
The Japanese will defend his titles against Mexican Luis Nery tonight, May 6, in his homeland's capital city.
"This is an incredible guy and one of the greatest boxers I've ever seen. What I'm seeing is frightening. He crushes really good opponents. I've never seen a fighter of comparable size perform like that. Salvador Sanchez may have been capable of something like that, but he didn't always win by knockout.
Inoue boxing guys and then knocking them out. What we're seeing in his performance is something special. And there's no ifs. He's special to boxing," BoxingScene quoted Arum as saying.
