Known as &lsquo;The Monster&rsquo; for his devastating power, Inoue has been terrorizing opponents across multiple weight classes since he first burst onto the world stage. His last American appearance was back in 2021, but since then, he has been on an absolute tear through the boxing world.<\/p><p>Inoue&rsquo;s journey to superstardom began in the lighter weight divisions. He knocked out Adrian Hernandez in 2014 to claim his first world title. That was just the appetizer. He has climbed through weight classes and the way he dismantled future Hall of Famer Nonito Donaire twice speaks volumes about his skill. That second fight in 2022 was particularly brutal as Donaire never made it past the second round.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">That finish in slow motion.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/naoyainoue_410?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@NaoyaInoue_410<\/a> really is one of one &#128121; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/sq2YpghubA\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/sq2YpghubA<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Top Rank Boxing (@trboxing) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/trboxing\/status\/1882756013193056663?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>January 24, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>The man became the undisputed super-bantamweight champion in just two fights!

Inoue got knocked down in the first round (a rare sight!) but came back to stop Nery in six.

The man is riding a 14-fight winning streak dating back to 2017. Last year, he forced Israel Rodriguez Picazo to quit with a broken jaw. Then he knocked out Jesus Ramirez Rubio in the ninth round of a tough fight. Just last month, he overcame a knockdown to beat previously undefeated Bryan Acosta in his hometown of San Antonio.<\/p><p>When offered this fight, Cardenas didn&rsquo;t hesitate. For him, this isn&rsquo;t just a paycheck &ndash; it&rsquo;s the chance of a lifetime. But he is facing one of boxing&rsquo;s most fearsome talents. The question now is whether Cardenas can pull off what would be one of boxing&rsquo;s biggest upsets, or if &lsquo;The Monster&rsquo; will continue his reign of terror when he returns to the fight capital of the world on May 5.<\/p><p><strong>(Image Credit: LasVegasLocally &ndash; X)<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>#2 pound for pound Naoya Inoue set to defend his super bantamweight championship in Las Vegas after a 4 year absence!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":29087,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mux_skip_reasons":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[1783],"tags":[2479,4618],"class_list":["post-29076","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mma","tag-naoya-inoue","tag-ramon-cardenas"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Naoya Inoue&#039;s Next Fight To Break 4 Year Las Vegas Absence With Fight In May!
