Tokyo Dome. Congress. The heavyweight division. All in one week.

On this episode of The Corner, we break down Naoya Inoue vs. Junto Nakatani — two unbeaten fighters, identical 32-0 records, one undisputed super bantamweight title on the line at the biggest boxing event in Japanese history. We get into the stylistic matchup, what Nakatani’s southpaw stance and 4-inch height advantage actually means against the best pound-for-pound fighter on the planet, and what happens next for whoever loses.

Then we cover the Muhammad Ali Boxing Reform Act hearings — why fighter protections keep getting debated in Washington and why sanctioning bodies, promotional contracts, and state-by-state regulation still make boxing the least protected professional sport in America.

Plus the full weekly roundup: Fury-Joshua officially signed for Q4 on Netflix, Zayas vs. Boots Ennis confirmed for June 27, Benavidez moving up to cruiserweight, and every result and callout from the past seven days.
