HISTORY & FULL DESCRIPTION: Naoya Inoue (井上 尚弥, Inoue Naoya, born 10 April 1993) is a Japanese professional boxer. He has held multiple world championships in four weight classes, and is one of only three male boxers in history (along with Terence Crawford and Oleksandr Usyk) to become the undisputed champion in two weight classes in the "four-belt era". Nicknamed "Monster", Inoue is known for his exceptional punching power, possessing a knockout-to-win percentage of 88.88%, with 90.90% in world title matches.
He is the first and only boxer to win the undisputed championship[a] at super bantamweight, having held all four major titles since 2023, as well as the Ring magazine title. Previously he held the undisputed championship at bantamweight between 2022 and 2023, becoming the first undisputed bantamweight champion since Enrique Pinder in 1972, and the first boxer in history to do so in the four-belt era. Earlier in his career he held the World Boxing Council (WBC) light flyweight title in 2014, and the World Boxing Organization (WBO) junior bantamweight title from 2014 to 2018. Inoue has also held the lineal championship at bantamweight and super bantamweight, and won the 2018–2019 World Boxing Super Series bantamweight tournament.
On June 2022, Inoue became the first Japanese boxer to be ranked as No. 1 in the world, pound for pound, by The Ring. He was named Fighter of the Year in 2023 by The Ring, the Boxer Writers Association of America, and ESPN.
