Naoya Inoue vs Junto Nakatani boxing live stream, on Saturday from the Tokyo Dome, is the all-Japanese fight for the undisputed super bantamweight world titles that the world has been waiting for. The Monster and Big Bang, each with undefeated records of 32-0, have been circling each other for years, and with all the straps on the line, this is impossible.
Inoue has long been considered a pound-for-pound contender – currently sitting behind only Oleksandr Usyk on many lists – and on Saturday will make his seventh defense of the undisputed super bantamweight world title he has held since May 2024. The 33-year-old Monster is a knockout artist who, even in fighting the distance, against David Aks, against his last two and his last two Pichmada. dominated from the first bell.
Nakatani is also comfortably inside the top 10 on the pound-for-pound charts, but will start as a narrow underdog against his compatriot, largely because he has less experience at 122lbs. The 28-year-old beat Sebastian Hernandez by unanimous decision in his only fight at the weight, but always looked massive in the lighter divisions. The three-weight world champion represents Inoue’s toughest opponent to date, and if he can get on the inside to use a naturally larger frame, he can do damage.
