Takuma Inoue aims to follow in older brother's footsteps as undisputed champion
Japan's Takuma Inoue set his sights on matching older brother Naoya in becoming the undisputed bantamweight world champion, after beating Venezuela's Liborio Solis on Saturday to partially reclaim the family silver. The elder Inoue, nicknamed 'Monster', became the first undisputed world bantamweight champion in half a century in December, before handing back all four belts the following month to move up to the super bantamweight division. The 27-year-old Takuma, two years younger than his unbeaten brother, claimed the WBA bantamweight title for himself when he beat the 41-year-old Solis by unanimous decision after 12 rounds in Tokyo.
