NAOYA INOUE returns to the ring to defend his undisputed titles against Luis Nery next month.
‘The Monster’ hasn’t been in action since a dominant stoppage win over Marlon Tapales back in December.

Now he returns to face former two-weight world champion Nery, who was once a highly-touted fighter.
Nery has previously fought in Japan against Shinsuke Yamanaka, beating him via TKO in the fourth round.
The Mexican failed a drug test after the fight but was later ruled to be due to contaminated food. Nery re-matched and beat Yamanaka but failed to make weight for the bout and was subsequently banned from fighting in Japan.
He’s now back to fight in the Land of the Rising Sun, however, but this time he’s up against arguably their greatest ever fighter in Inoue.
When is Inoue vs Nery?
Inoue’s big clash against Nery will take place on Monday, May 6.
The bout will be held at the Tokyo Dome in Tokyo, Japan.
Inoue’s fights usually begin at around 11am in the UK, so you can expect the same here.
But ring-walks are yet to be confirmed, so check back at SunSport for all the latest updates.
What channel is it on and can it be live streamed?
Inoue vs Nery will be shown live on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Arena in the UK.
You can live stream the action from the NOW TV or Sky Go apps, both of which are available for download onto your mobile or tablet device.
