Japanese Naoya “The Monster” Inoue (21-0, 18 KO’s), one of the most thrilling KO artists on the planet, is set to defend his unified WBA/IBF bantamweight titles against hard-hitting Thai challenger Aran Dipaen (12-2, 11 KO’s) on Tuesday, Dec 14 in Tokyo.
• Will the interesting rumble end up in a brutal KO due to lethal power packed by both combatants??
– That is so likely.
• Will the winner go on to battle Filipino multi-division world champions Johnriel Casimero (31-4, 21 KO’s), or “The Filipino Flash” Nonito Donaire (41-6, 27 KO’s)..??
– We all hope so.
May the Best Man Win!!
