Naoya Inoue’s Future: Locations for His Next Two Fights

Following his victory over challenger Ye Joon Kim (21-3-2, 13 KOs), undisputed super bantamweight champion Naoya Inoue (29-0, 26 KOs) revealed where his next fights are expected to take place.

“I am very happy to see people all over the world watching me. Thank you all for watching my fight. This year, I plan to fight in Las Vegas and Saudi Arabia,” said Inoue.

Inoue’s promoter, Bob Arum, confirmed plans for a fight in Las Vegas.

“Another spectacular performance from our champion. I hope the great country of Japan will allow the great Inoue to grace Las Vegas for one fight this spring,” Arum stated.

These will be Inoue’s first fights outside Japan since 2021, when he fought twice in the U.S., winning both bouts by knockout.
