Although Parenas was KO by Inoue in just 2 rounds, the reference he is sharing on that article is that Inoue is really good right from the start of his career even before he became a professional boxer. The young Inoue was seen getting the potential to become a known professional boxer in the future and he already achieves that.

Inoue was even tagged as the next Manny Pacquiao of Asia although he's not climbing up the ladder yet to become a pound-for-pound fighter.
