Naoya Inoue (29-0, 26 kos) defends her undisputed super naughty weight title this evening against Ramon Cardenas, classified # 8 IBF (26-1, 14 KB) in what many fans consider a complete lag at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The real gem of this card is the featherweight champion WBO Rafael Espinoza (26-0, 22 kB) in defense against Edward Vazquez (17-2, 4 KB) in the main support fight. The competitor of Welter Rohan Polyco weights (15-0, 10 KB) fights Fabian Maidana (24-3, 18 KB) in a 10 round.
Results
Welter weight competitor Rohan Polanco (16-0, 10 KB) beat Fabian Andres Maidana (24-4, 18 KB) by a unanimous decision of 10 laps. # 10 WBO and # 15 WBC POLANCO dropped Maidana with a body right in the last minute of the tenth round. Polanco tried to finish it in the remaining seconds, but could not. Fabian turned out to be difficult. The scores were 100-89, 100-89 and 100-89. Maidana looked discouraged after the sixth round, as he wanted to leave because he had been hammered by Polanco. His trainer motivated him to continue to fight, and he replied, having an eighth strong, landing big blows on Polanco. Rohan slipped and fell at some point, which excited the fans at the edge of the ring. It seemed to cheer up from Maidana because he had a good trick.
Light prospect of Welter weights Emiliano Vargas (14-0, 12 KB) destroyed Juan Leon (11-3-1, 2 kB) in a TKO in the second round. Vargas, 21, dropped Leon twice. Referee Robert Hoyle intervened to stop the fight after the second Knockdown of the Tour. The official time of the judgment was at 1:40. During the first Knockdown, Vargas connected to two strokes followed by a right hand and a left hook to put Leon on the canvas. A few moments later, he marked Leon with a right hand and a left uppercut to drop him. The referee pulled the sheet rather than letting the massacre continue.

The main thing of this evening Inoue-Cardenas will be shown live on ESPN and ESPN +, from 10:00 p.m. He / 19:00 PT. The preliminary card is on ESPN + from 6:15 p.m. He / 3:15 pm Pt.
Fans see this fight as unilateral in favor of the Japanese superstar Inoue. Cardenas is not a big punker and has never fought anyone as talented or as powerful as “mounting” Inoue. While Cardenas won his last 14 fights, his opposition was mainly low -level tomatoes.
Fans are angry with Inoue to have chosen Cardenas to fight in the United States instead of Murodjon Akhmadaliev or Alan David Picasso. Some believe that this is intentional on Inoue and the share of his management, putting him with mediocre opposition. It is a self -destructive movement on the part of Naoya, but it might not have any importance for him. It is rich and has a huge base of fans in Japan.
