“The Monster” is a boxing sensation and makes his 2024 debut, seeking to continue to dominate his super bantamweight division. With 21 wins in world title fights, it is unsurprising that the bookmakers expect Naoya Inoue to steamroll over the Mexican challenger. Inoue won his first title in 2014 when he bagged the WBC light flyweight title; moving up the weight classes from there, the undefeated champion has held multiple world titles and is now the second boxer in history to become an undisputed champion in two-weight classes in the four-belt era. His exceptional power has led to his 23 knockouts from 26 wins.
