Although the good news is that after this fight, he might go to the US as per Bob Arum because they said that Inoue will be jumping up in weight class. And most of the champions at 126 lbs are US base so it's only right that he will go and fight in the US moving forward.
I really hope that news has some substance because, honestly, I’ve been hearing rumors too, that Inoue isn’t done yet and plans to keep defending his title after this fight. The longer he stays in this division, the more his popularity risks taking a hit. It’s like he’s holding back the hype by not challenging himself against boxers who have a shot at beating him, real champions. Dominant wins are great, but if there’s no real competition, it starts to lose its spark.
And there are still rumors that he might still have one fight left at this division, so after Goodman, he could be facing another great contender, but let's see. I do hold Bob Arum's statement though, as he knows how to promote and make Inoue great in the US, just like how he brought Manny Pacquaio and then make him a household name by careful matchmaking although Manny has already had that talent already. But as boxing fans, we want Inoue to go stateside and faces a lot of great champions at 126 lbs and see if he can bring his power to that division and be as destructive as he is in the bantam/super-bantamweight.
