Naoya Inoue successfully defended his undisputed super bantamweight title against TJ Doheny at the Ariake Arena in Tokyo, winning by TKO in the seventh round. Although Inoue started slowly, he utilized effective body shots that eventually led to Doheny's injury, which prompted the referee to stop the fight at 0:16 of the round. Inoue's performance showcased his ability to adapt to Doheny's tricky southpaw style, and he landed significant punches that took a toll on his opponent. The stoppage, while decisive, was viewed as anticlimactic due to the injury rather than a knockout. This victory extends Inoue's record to 28-0 with 25 KOs, marking his ninth consecutive title win via stoppage. The boxing community reacted strongly to the fight, underscoring Inoue's explosive power and potential future matchups.
