Las Vegas, Nevada – Naoya “The Monster” Inoue returned to America and did not disappoint. He fought against Ramon Cardenas in a memorable battle of Las Vegas in the T-Mobile Arena. Inoue told the post-lluit press conference that the type of struggle you enjoy most are fights,
And we have a Sunday night. Cardenas did not get to get into, seeking to shock the world and become the first man to defeat the monster. He turned it into a competitive game soon, demolished Inoue in the second round and bringing the impulse for the next rounds. Inoue, however, turned the tide by increasing its intensity and significantly increasing its production. His work rate overwhelmed Cardenas; The multiple combination strokes were too much for him, giving rise to a 7th round. The monster continued the relentless attack to the eighth when referee Thomas Taylor stopped it.
In the press, Cardenas stated that Inoue’s power was not really disturbed, but it was his combinations that overflowed him. I didn’t know how to defend them. Although he lost the struggle, he gained the admiration and respect of the boxing fans. Attendees committed their brave effort. “I told my coach if I go out, then I will go out on my shield. That’s what I did,” said Ramon. Inoue said, “Cardenas was a tougher opponent than he expected.” Naoya enjoyed fighting in America and hopes that he can do it again in the future. A mega potential fight against Nakani can be on the horizon, as Inoue stated that it could happen next year. This would be a mega struggle that many fans have been desired for some time. Inoue’s legend grew over the weekend and will continue to grow with repeated performances.
At the co-main event, Rafael “Divino” Espinoza did an impressive performance, defeating Edward Vazquez by technical tie in the 7th round. “This is the kind of struggle that people like to see. And I also like it. People deserve these types of fights. And, as a Mexican struggle on this important Mexican date, I did it with all my heart and I will continue to do so.” Espinoza’s work rate is admirable, throwing 520 punches in seven rounds and connecting 39.8 percent of their total blows. When a minimum starting weekend was put in perspective, Divino threw more punches than the combined punches thrown at the weekend’s high games: Canelo Alvarez-William Scull, Ryan Garcia-Rolly Romero and Devin Haney-Jose Ramirez (Compubox).
Espinoza wants to be remembered as a great Mexican and, in order to do it, it must be memorable. “Because a new Mexican idol is born, I’ll have to fight the best. So I’m here. I’m the champion. And I’m here to fight the best,” Rafael said. He has made three successful defenses of his World Wbo heavy weight title. He has stated that he would like to face the other champions in the division. With its size, power and work rate, it is a difficult rival. Hopes to stay busy and fight twice this year.
