It doesn’t get any better as two small giants face off on Tuesday morning in Toyko live on ESPN+. Earlier today, unified super bantamweight champion Stephen Fulton Jr. (21-0, 8 KOs) and ‘The Monster’ Naoya Inoue (24-0, 21 KOs) both came under the super bantamweight limit of 122 pounds. The stare-down was intense as no man wanted to cut away, but then someone stepped in and separated the two fighters. Inoue smirked while saying something under his breath while Fulton Jr. continued with his ice-cold stare. Although Fulton was the underdog at +325 earlier in the week, that has since come down as late money comes in for the Philadelphia fighter. As per the oddsmakers, Inoue is still the favorite to win this fight. Who will come out victorious? We will all soon find out.
