A native of Japan, the pound-for-pound ranked Inoue continued his assault on the United States after signing with Top Rank and seeing his fights regularly featured on ESPN.
1 ranked fighter like Dasmarinas, I think I had a great win,” Inoue said through a translator.
Inoue was very patient in the opening round against Dasmarinas , a 28-year-old southpaw from the Philippines.
Inoue dropped Dasmarinas a second time to open Round 3 with a body shot.
Inoue suffered a broken nose and orbital bone in the fight and Donaire was forced to get up from a body shot in the final round to finish the fight.
“I have to give the biggest respect for Dasmarinas because I have been there, I know how it feels, and they hurt.
Some people can call me crazy about things but I love that fight and I want to do that again.
“I saw Dasmarinas giving too much respect to Inoue but it was a great experience seeing live,” Casimero said.
