Eddie Hearn is upset by WBA Super Bantamweight Championship Naoya Inoue Swerving Commismenger Murodjon Akhmadaliyev To the easiest fights against weak opposition that pose no threat to hit him.
Hearn says the WBA will write to Inoue (29-9, 26 KOs) on Monday to tell him he must defend against Akhmadaliev (13-1, 10 KOs), or he will be stripped of his WBA 122-LB belt.
However, Hearn predicts that Inoue, 31, will vacate his WBA title and face the WBC #1 contender, Alain David Picassothe next. These two are expected to fight in the United States in Las Vegas. Picasso (31-0-1, 17 KOS) isn't well known to the U.S. boxing public, but he's got fans from his native Mexico who will be excited to see him fight “The Beast.”

“Naoya Inoue straightened out Murodjon Akhmadaliev. He's been ordered to fight him twice. Eddie Hearn said,” Eddie Hearn said. Talksport boxing About Naoya Inoue.
“On Monday, the WBA will write to Naoya Inoue and say, ‘Enough. You have to fight Akhmadaliev or you will be stripped of your WBA title and go undisputed.” Watch this now. “Naoya Inoue will commute his WBA world title,” Hearn said.
“Who is Akhmedelev,” said Gareth A. Davies.
Hearn may also begin preparing to strip the WBA belt from Inoue as he is unlikely to fight Akhmedeleev. It's very dangerous. It will be interesting to see if the WBA chooses to strip Naoya because he is a popular fighter, which would make their organization look good for the pregnancy. His replacement by the lesser-known Alalevaliyev is even less popular for the WBA.
Like Canelo Alvarez, Inoue stopped making risky fights years ago and is playing it safe now. Fighting smaller opposition can't hurt him like Nonito Donaire did in his first fight. Eno broke his nose and fractured his right orbital bone. Inoue takes punishment well, but he doesn't take very good shots.
