Naoya Inoue continues to make his case as the planet’s best, pound-for-pound boxer, as the Japanese star stopped Stephen Fulton Jr. today to become a four-division champion.
The fight took place in Tokyo, Japan, and it saw Inoue finish Fulton Jr. with a series of hard punches in round eight. With the victory, the 30-year-old Inoue (25-0, 22 KO) secured the WBC and WBO junior featherweight titles. Previously, Inoue held bantamweight, junior-bantamweight and flyweight world championships.
The 29-year-old Fulton Jr., who is from Pennsylvania, had never lost a professional fight until today.
