Junto Nakatani breaks silence following his loss to Naoya Inoue in one of the biggest fights in Japanese boxing history.
It wasn’t meant to be for Nakatani. He dropped a UD points decision to Naoya Inoue in one heck of a fight last weekend.
His stock in our view went up in defeat.
He broke his silence a short time ago on the X platform for the first time since the loss simply by saying:
Here is some of the fan reaction:
The fight set a new record in Japan for pay per view sales for any combat sport event in history.
Doing well over 500,000 pay per view buys at least — in Japan alone.
Showing just how fast boxing continues to expand in the East.
As well as the West.
Who knows what fights Nakatani will have next but he gave a solid account of himself last weekend.
He simply came up against a better boxer in Naoya Inoue.
