Yeah, but technically it was not Murad who make Pacquiao a household name. And so that is what I'm saying here, the Bob Arum has the formula and blue print already and probably this is only the reason why he did want to bring Inoue in the USA. Already Inoue's name is already big, but the center of boxing is in the US and for sure Inoue an even surpassed Manny as the biggest in Asia if he will just go and fight outside of Japan.

With this fight, I'm thinking that I might go under 7.5 rounds here.

Sam doesn't have the power and then Inoue is going to be too fast for him. Not sure what other boxing fans are thinking here, others might agree or disagree with me regarding which rounds will Inoue stop Goodman.

The US hasn’t been the center of boxing since HBO and Showtime got out of the business. Due to investments from DAZN, the Saudi government, and some other players, the sport has become more international. Out of the top 10 in ESPN’s pound for pound list, only 5 of them fought at least once in the US in 2024. Compared to a decade ago, it was very rare to see a fighter based outside of the US in the top 10.

This is one reason why non western countries became so proud of this recorded data. That proves that everybody could thrive harder even though they're at different races. Not just with Saudi, but for all countries who participated sports particular to boxing career. Don't under estimate Inoue, we don't know what in the future he can give for his future fights.

What do you mean? Inoue has etched his name in boxing already, cemented his legacy when he unified the super bantamweight. He is the second boxer to unified two divisions, so races has nothing to do with boxing. If you talk about the Saudis, well they are now the powerful broker in boxing and obviously, they have deep pockets that's why they can put up great fights in the Middle East.

As for this fight, the over and under could be the safest bet, Inoue by KO is a bad choice in terms of the odds. So I will agree that the over 7.5 like what @bisdak40 said. At least there are values, doubling your money.
