Not the most thrilling matchup, considering how dominant Inoue is in this division. But since it's happening, I guess we’ve got no choice but to talk about it. This is yet another title defense for Inoue, with Goodman stepping in as a likely mandatory challenger. Goodman’s unbeaten, but he doesn’t pack much power, only 8 KOs in 19 wins. I haven’t watched his highlights yet, but if he’s anything like other Aussie boxers I’ve seen, he’s probably a slugger. If he's not careful, this fight could end early, with Inoue scoring a KO.
Maybe Inoue’s trying to beat Casimero’s first-round TKO. Let’s see how it goes.
