On the eve of this confrontation, the Japanese “Monster” shared his expectations from the upcoming confrontation, and also talked about the possible end of his career.
“I can’t afford to lose. My motivation depends on where I am in the division. I have achieved results that satisfy me.
However, now I am 32 years old and my prospects are more than clear. We are talking about retirement… The fact that I will end my career at some point is becoming more and more obvious at this stage of my career.
I’m doing the same show with Junto Nakatani, so the fans will be looking forward to next year with great anticipation. So I have to show them that I’m still in the game. Our joint victory is the main priority.
While I perform at a high level and feel proud. If that feeling of satisfaction starts to fade, that’s probably when you start to get weaker. As soon as you stop testing yourself, it’s all over,” Inoue concluded.
