Two-weight world Mexican champ Luis Nery (35 wins – 1 loss – 0) mocked the undefeated “Japanese monster” Naoya Inoue (26 wins – 0 loss) as ordinary and overrated hyping their fight at Tokyo Dome in Japan May 6, 2024.
31-year old Inoue will defend his undisputed super bantamweight title against Nery.
29-year-old challenger Nery has the WBC and Ring magazine bantamweight titles plus the WBC super bantamweight title from 2020 to May 2021.
On the other hand, the undisputed Inoue who holds WBA and IBF titles plus WBC and WBO belts has never lost except a decision with Filipino ‘flash’ Nonito Donaire last 2011.
Nery said that he has watched all his fights. “I think he’s overrated. I think he’s an ordinary fighter…”
Nery revealed that he will knock out Inoue and will not let a decision happen. He admitted that Inoue is a fast fighter and intelligent but the Japanese champ has weaknesses too.
The Mexican challenger divulged that Inoue opens up when he throws thus his chance to knock him out.
