Takuma Inoue - Tenshin Nasukawa: betting tip (cf 1.70) and bets on the fight

Current form

Takuma Inoue knows well what to expect from Tenshin Nasukawa. In November 2025, the Japanese already shared the ring, and then Inoue took the victory by unanimous decision in a duel for the vacant WBC title. Since then, the champion has managed to have another serious fight: in May, he confidently outboxed Kazuto Ioka. At the same time, Inoue's career path cannot be called cloudless. In October 2024, he lost the WBA belt, losing to Seiya Tsutsumi on points in the third defense. But the defeat did not knock him out of the championship race. On the contrary, the 30-year-old boxer continued to meet with the strongest representatives of the division.

Inoue has 22 wins and two losses, with only five wins coming by knockout. He has played 227 rounds in his career, and made his professional debut back in 2013. Takuma's height is just over 163 cm, and his arm span is 164 cm. The figures are quite eloquent: only 22.7% of the victories were won ahead of schedule by the Japanese. In the last 13 fights, he has stopped only two opponents.

But Inoue has no questions about the quality of the opposition. He was not used to choosing convenient options and had never met a boxer who had a negative balance of wins and losses. In 2015, the Japanese won the vacant OPBF belt in the second light heavyweight division, defeating Marc Anthony Geraldo, and then defended the title twice. In 2018, he became the interim WBC champion in the light heavyweight division, having outboxed Tasala Salapata.

The first defeat came a year later: Inoue lost to Nordin Ubaali in a fight for a full-fledged WBC belt. The fight took place on the undercard of the first confrontation between Naoya Inoue and Nonito Donera. Takuma's resume also includes the Japanese and WBO Asia Pacific titles. In 2023, the Japanese man reached the WBA championship belt in the lightest category, defeating Liborio Solis. His first defense was particularly impressive: Gervin Ancajas, the former IBF World flyweight champion, was stopped by a body blow in the ninth round. Inoue then outboxed Xie Ishida. Other notable wins include fights with Jake Bornea, Shingo Wake, Petch SiPi Freshmart, Froylan Saludar and Marc Anthony Geraldo.

Current form

Tenshin Nasukawa last boxed in April, when he defeated former world champion Juan Francisco Estrada ahead of schedule after nine rounds. Nasukawa, 28, has eight wins and one loss, with three wins by knockout. He spent 62 rounds in nine fights. At the same time, his current boxing career is only part of the Japanese man's story. Before turning professional, Nasukawa was a kickboxing and MMA star, and his victories over former IBF champion Amnat Ruenroeng and famous Thai boxer Wangchong PiKei Saenchaigim made him widely known long before entering the ring with boxing gloves.

Nasukawa retired from kickboxing in July 2022, and made his professional boxing debut in April 2023. The start turned out to be calm: Yuki Yonaha was beaten on points in six rounds. This was followed by a victory over Luis Guzman Torres, and Luis Robles Pacheco was stopped after three rounds. In July 2024, Nasukawa took the next step by defeating Jonathan Rodriguez ahead of schedule in the third round. After that, he outboxed Gervin Asilo and former WBO champion Jason Moloney, and then won on points against Victor Santillan. But it was Inoue who stopped the winning streak. However, Nasukawa did not suffer failure for long and in April demonstrated mature boxing against Juan Estrada, defeating him in April by knockout.

The applicant has a curious advantage in anthropometry. With a height of 165 cm, his arm span reaches 176.5 cm. In other words, Nasukawa is about half an inch taller than Inoue, and his arms are five inches longer than him. However, Tenshin does not have outstanding knockout power either: 37.5% of his victories ended ahead of schedule, and four of the last five fights reached the final gong.
