What a fucking fight. The kid from SA wasn't ready to go, he had some fight mentally, but his body wasn't reciprocating that fire. Inoue broke him down, even though it felt like the body was there for the taking if the kid would've just committed to it. His best moments were countering and hitting the body. Inoue is for real, can't hate on that. But he was at least given a fight tonight and was overwhelmed a few times in the fight, just never gave in to the pressure and kept on his front foot.

Brilliant fight.  Saved the weekend after the historically awful fights we had.  Inoue really needs to work on not getting out over his skis when he's on the attack.  Cardenas dropped him with the exact same counter punch Nery did.  That shit is gonna get him in trouble at 126.

Will be interesting to see how high in weight Inoue can go. Seems like his biggest challenge will be a weight class and not necessarily an opponent.

Helluva fight with Navarrete and Suarez. It was stopped due to what they said was a non-intentional head-butt/cut.

It is hard to tell whether or not it was the punch or a slight hit with the head. If you looked at Navarrete while they were waiting for the scorecards it looked as if he was saying the cut came when Suarez raked down on his face with the open-fist side of his glove. It looked like that could be accurate. They had to go with the call from the ring because the video replay was blocked by the fighters. In quotes after Navarrete said it was the head-butt.

The two were really fighting hard. Navarrete won a Technical Decision on the scorecards after the fight was stopped at the start of the 8th round. I don't see how Navarrete can stay at 130 because he can barely make that weight.

pathetic shit by Keyshawn Davis this weekend.  first misses weight by 4 lbs and has his main event canceled, then gets into a backstage skirmish with the guy who beat his brother on the same card.  i was very high on him, but shit like that makes it easy to think he'll be another burnout like Adrien Broner.
