Luis Nery will challenge Naoya Inoue for the undisputed super-bantamweight titles on May 6th in Tokyo. The Mexican is taking inspiration from Buster Douglas’ upset win over Mike Tyson in 1990, which occurred in the same arena where Nery will face Inoue. Despite being the underdog, Nery believes he can cause a similar upset and become the undisputed champion of the division.
