Naoya Inoue vs. Luis Nery: Full video highlights

Naoya Inoue sucessfully defended his undisputed super bantamweight championship belts against challenger Luis Nery on May 6, 2024, at the Tokyo Dome in Japan.

Inoue continued his legacy as one of the most fearsome competers in boxing by once again showcasing his devastating power. He overcame being knocked down in the first round and went on to dominate Nery, dropping his opponent three times before the referee waved the bout off in the sixth round.

'The Monster', who is only the second man behind Terence Crawford to have become an undisputed champion in two weight classes, has built up an unparalleled resume of finishes in his divisions. Of his 27 wins as a professional, 24 have come by the way of knockout, which includes putting away notable names such as Marlon Tapales, Stephen Fulton, and Emmanuel Rodriguez.

Nery is no pushover, however, and presented a significant challenge to the champion. The 29-year-old brought his own firepower to the table and nearly caused the upset in the opening round.

Despite coming up short tonight, 'Pantera' had deservedly earned his challenger status after picking up wins over the likes of Froilan Saludar and Azat Hovhannisyan.
