Stephen Fulton

After I heard that [Naoya] Inoue was moving up, I made the call to [my manager] Luis De Cubas. And then we all got Al [Haymon] on the phone and we made it happen. Al gave me the blessing, and that's something that I wanted to do. I feel like that's how my whole career went... Anything I wanted to do, Al allowed me to do that.

thinks he can show he's a better boxer than Naoya Inoue

Who will win: Inoue or Fulton?

Inoue and Fulton are worthy opponents.
It is difficult to predict which of the boxers will win.

Nevertheless, I think that Naoya Inoue will win by technical knockout.
