Naoya Inoue dominates TJ Doheny with eighth-round stoppage

Naoya Inoue stopped TJ Doheny in the eighth round to retain his undisputed super bantamweight championship on September 14, 2024, in Tokyo.

Inoue used his signature body attack early, targeting Doheny’s ribs and liver to sap his stamina. By the fourth round, Doheny was visibly slowing, unable to cut off the ring or create angles. Inoue’s left hook to the body landed cleanly multiple times, setting up the head shots that followed.

Inoue has expressed interest in moving up to featherweight to challenge for titles in a second weight class. Potential opponents include Luis Alberto Lopez or Raymond Ford, though no date has been set for his next fight.

  • Naoya Inoue landed 112 punches to TJ Doheny’s 47 in the eighth-round stoppage
  • The victory took place on September 14, 2024, at the Ariake Arena in Tokyo
