What has been said?
Naoya Inoue:
“I'm targeting Goodman's left eye.”
When asked if he would go after Goodman's injured left eye, he said, “Of course. It's a fight. That will be one big weakness."
It's a fight, so it's natural to do that. That's a big weak point for him and can be my key to victory.
"Inoue said that there's nothing that you have that can give him real problems and all you have is power."
Sam Goodman:
"I've got it written down in a book that I'd fight and beat this guy - and that was before he even came into my division."
