“Cannot hit like that”: Tim Bradley praises Inoue’s resilience after Cardenas’s fear but warns against the pen movement

The commentator Tim Bradley was impressed with the way Naoya Cardenas (26-2, 14 kos) won after being demolished in the second round by Ramon Cardenas (26-2, 14 kos) last Sunday night at the T-Mobile Arena de las Vegas.

Inoue (30-0, 27 kos) said he did not hit another large left of the Cardenas Challenger like the one who dropped him. The Japanese star Inoue worked with speed, combined punch and volume to achieve a technical tie of the eighth round.

Savior of the weekend

Bradley warns that Inoue, 31, cannot remain struck as he did against Cardenas if he moves to the feather weight and goes after the titles of this division. Time says the 126 -pound fighters achieved more and will be tougher for the little Inoue to come to them.

Inoue has already said that it will remain at 122 for as long as possible. It will probably be for the rest of his career because he has no problem with weight management.

“This is what we want. We want to entertain ourselves. It was definitely entertaining,” said commentator Tim Bradley a Fight Hub TV About Naoya Inoue’s struggle against Ramon Cardenas last Sunday night at the T-Mobile Arena de Las Vegas. “I thought it was a solid performance.”

Inoue struggle against Cardenas brought the drama they had lost after seeing two Drabs events last Friday in New York and on Saturday in Riyadh. Rafael Espinoza, a feather weight champion Inoue and Wbo, saved the weekend with his fights.

Feather weight notice

“You can’t hit these shots, man,” Bradley said about Inoue, who dropped Cardenas in the second round. “You can’t hit these shots and go down like that. Really, especially against these caliber boys. This type (Cardenas) is a real guy. It’s a top 10 top 10. It has been identified. It can fight. It has a power in both hands.”

The way Naoya struggled in the first round, was not aware of the dangerous that he was a Cardenas Puncher. He missed Inoue with some changes from home with his left, and you could say he would catch the Inoue monster sooner or later and put him on the cover. In the second round, it happened, but Naoya could lift and survive the rest of the round.

“The way he was able to get up -I will give him a credit. He got up,” Bradley said about Naoya. “He did the same thing he did with (Luis) Nerry (after being abandoned by him last year). He broke this guy and he was able to remove him from there.”

Cardenas’s punch that Inoue fell was much tougher than what Nerry dropped him last year. Cardenas was hit with a left that landed. What he did the most devastating is that he did not see the punch.

“However, you (Inoue) want to climb 126, and you want to try to dominate this division,” Bradley told Inoue about the transfer to the pen. “There are some lions thereAlso. Dudes who can take your things. Remember -he is a little boy who moves. It is a challenge for him. The guy tonight was as if he had not touched so hard with the punches. “”

We saw one of the lions of the Bar de la Ferma, Rafael Espinoza, who would be a pure nightmare for Inoue if he moves until 126 and looks towards his direction for a world title. It is doubtful that Inoue was crazy enough to assume the 6’1 “spike because he would know that this type is too big.

That the victory

“It was more than a cumulative effect,” Bradley said about Inoue. “It was more the combinations and the speed with which you hit you. It’s frustrating. It’s an outburst rapidly, it’s precise and it’s ready. It’s difficult to treat it.

Cardenas took advantage of one of those moments of the second round to demolish him. However, he did not catch inoue again with a similar punch for the rest of the fight. This is his fault because he retired too often to have the opportunity to win.

“You must have a film study and get to know them and recognize them. Grand end,” Bradley said about Inoue. “It’s different. It’s a beast. Inoue, after this performance? I don’t think it’s a pound for pound ( #1). I think usyk is a pound for pound #1. I think Crawford is behind him, and I think Inoue is #3. Fantastic night.

Even with a cinematic study by Inoue, it will be difficult to defeat him unless you are huge as Rafael Espinoza or have a puncture power. There is no one at 122 or 126 that has enough pop to do more than they did Cardenas. The main problems that they would have on the feather weight are the size of the fighters and, in the case of Espinoza, the volume volume.
