Naoya Inoue vs Marlon Tapales Prediction: Marlon's skills do not look very convincing against Inoue

Prediction for the Naoya Inoue vs Marlon Tapales fight which will take place on December 26th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Naoya Inoue became WBC champion in 2014, and since then, he has only added to his collection of belts. He is undefeated in his professional career and has an aggressive fighting style - almost all of his victories have come by knockout.

In his last fight, which took place over the summer, he easily defeated Stephen Fulton.

In 2016, the Filipino became the WBO champion, and in his last fight, he defeated Murodjon Akhmadaliev by a split decision and took another belt, IBF. But three losses, two of them by knockout, give reason to doubt his victory over Inoue. However, he does not think so.

Even though Tapales is as confident as possible, his skills do not look very convincing against Inoue. The Japanese always has powerful fights, and their opponent's tactical boxing is very convenient. If we remember that Tapales has been knocked out by boxers of a lower level than Inoue, we can agree with the bookmakers' lines.
