A clearly overmatched Warlito Parrenas was demolished by Naoya ?The Monster? Inoue who returned to the ring after a 52 week layoff due to rehabilitation following hand surgery but showed no ill-effects of his long absence from the ring scoring a devastating 2nd round TKO over the Filipino challenger at the Arriake Coliseum in Tokyo.
The unbeaten 22 year old methodically cut down Parrenas at the start of the second round with the Filipino barely beating the mandatory eight count with wobbly feet and glazed eyes before a volley of punches from Inoue dropped Parrenas for a second time in the round following a right straight and a vicious left hook.
Referee Michael Ortega didn?t waste time in calling a halt to the one-sided bout at 1:20 of round two.
It was the 32 year old Parrenas? first loss in an eight fight winning streak and fell to 24-7-1 with 21 knockouts.
In a post-fight interview Inoue said he is interested in a unification bout.
Parrenas in a post on Facebook apologized to his fans for the defeat. He said ?Sorry guys. He was very strong and quick.?
