Naoya Inoue recently secured a knockout victory against Stephen Fulton in Japan. Boxing fans want to know if “The Monster” will move up a weight class to pursue bigger fights. He was already considered the best super-bantamweight boxer before fighting Fulton. This is why his recent achievement has further elevated his status in the boxing world, putting him on par with Gervonta Davis.

Floyd Mayweather also shared his thoughts about the young upcoming fighter in a recent interview. He spoke about how Inoue is a talented fighter without a doubt, but Floyd expressed his apprehension towards his achievements. “What I need Inoue to do is to come fight in the USA, random blood and urine testing. I think he’s a helluva fighter. He takes a lot of stuff from my playbook. But it’s okay, you’re supposed to take from the greats. I would like to see him fight Gervonta Davis at a catchweight,” said Mayweather.

Floyd Mayweather stated that he doesn’t like pulling down a fighter, so he is always careful of what he says. Nevertheless, he believed that Inoue’s accomplishments hadn’t reached the level which would earn him the title of a pound-for-pound fighter.

Furthermore, he stated that Inoue hadn’t reached the level of a pound-for-pound fighter, but he surely can prove it by going against Gervonta Davis. Davis himself recently won against Ryan Garcia and is looking for a worthy opponent. The fight might not materialize, but the match-up between the two undefeated remains very intriguing for boxing fans.

Whether the fight will occur in the welterweight or super welterweight remains to be seen. He also spoke about his potential match-up with Gervonta Davis, which fighters and fans have debated for some time. Gervonta Davis responded to this match, stating that he would knock Terence out in the sixth round if they fought.

Terence Crawford responded to the match, stating that he was interested in making the fight happen. Furthermore, he said that he is much bigger than Gervonta in terms of size and reach. This is why he believed he wouldn’t have a problem dealing with him in the ring and wanted to fight him at 147 lbs.
