Naoya Inoue known as ‘The Monster’ in Japan is getting bigger in Japan and in the West all the time.
Rightly so too, he is without doubt one of the best boxers pound for pound in the world today.
He has one win under his belt so far in 2025 and will box at least twice more (once in the US and once in Japan later this year) but even appeared at at MLB Baseball game in Japan to a big reception.
Boxing Kingdom on X notes it was the MLB Tokyo Series that he was speaking to sports fans on the pitch at.
Some consider Inoue to be like a modern day Bruce Lee of Japan.
Another good way to get the word out on champion boxers in Asia in general, is this, in the East that is.
There’s plenty of countries that can do the same.
The Philippines can easily get some of their new up and coming boxers and established champions to appear at more Filipino basketball games and obviously in China there is a huge basketball market, of which fighters in the East could use to get the word out on boxing in Asia more.
Quite possible too in the time ahead with everything that is happening now for the sport in the East.
