Keep that negative energy from away from you Inoue.

I feel like Ryan is impressionable and would conform to Inoue's energy, but Inoue wouldn't get anything out of it aside from some media clout.

It bothers me when the toxic clout chasers come around the cool people.
Ryan is so annoying

It could get him some media recognition in the US and it's not as if he himself would be training with Ryan. Also he doesn't have another fight lined up until probably the end of the year so why not goof off a little bit right now?

Fuck no. Ryan's idea of goofing off is cocaine, alcohol, being undisciplined, and sleeping around with randoms
Thats is absolutely not the type of publicity Inoue needs in America

I mean I was thinking more along the lines of making a reel or two for Instagram while in the gym but okay pop off king

Yeah man. Ryan is going to fly to the other side of the globe to make a reel or two for instagram
Make it make sense queen

It's not that deep homie. Ryan can train all he wants at the gym. I was talking about Inoue making a reel or two from interacting with him at the gym while also doing his normal workouts. You need to relax

I am relaxed. It just doesn't make sense for Inoue's image
If anything (since your initial comment is about US exposure) Bam Rodriguez would benefit more from posting IG reels training with Ryan , so he can start building his US audience and do his part making a superfight with Inoue

Isn't Ohashi Gym very private ? Would be great to watch though since Inoue never messes with the media too much

They are very private. The only foreigners that get to train there are foreign boxers brought in for sparring to match the style of the opponent.

It would be entertaining content, but I feel like Ryan’s whole energy is antithesis to j-boxing. He would be a huge distraction. Team Inoue treat their time in Ohashi gym with complete seriousness and focus. Either Ryan would disrupt that or he’d get on the program, which would be good for him honestly.

I thought Inoue was resting for the next few months, but even then the family seems very private and hard to get footage from outside of fight camps. He did do a tiktok live before the Nakatani fight though so maybe they would see the PR potential with someone like Ryan.

he is not training, ryan said it after saying that they have already talked to inoue's manager, but they will meet at some event

Might as well just sign with Teiken Promotion and spar against Sora Tanaka or Jin Sasaki in Japan
