The bout, if a deal is completed, would feature The Ring’s No. 2 pound-for-pound boxer, “The Monster” Inoue, against Bam, who is No. 4. Inoue, 33, would defend his Ring Magazine championship at 122 pounds.

Rodriguez, The Ring’s champion at 115 pounds, will debut at 118 in a June 13 title challenge of Antonio Vargas in Glendale, Arizona.

Inoue (33-0, 27 KOs) is coming off Saturday’s unanimous-decision victory over Junto Nakatani at the Tokyo Dome in the biggest fight in Japanese history.

Rodriguez (23-0, 16 KOs) has never competed in Japan, but has twice traveled to the country to support his brother, Joshua Franco, for his fights from the corner.

“If that fight was presented to me now, I’d definitely go and take it,” Rodriguez, 26, said on a recent episode of the Mr. Verzace Podcast. “I think me against Inoue would definitely be one of the biggest fights in the lower weight divisions.

“ … I love going to Japan anyways so if I were to fight out there for the first time, that would be great.”

Alalshikh plans to stage the event with the biggest fan capacity possible as he seeks a stadium to break the Japanese attendance record.

A special edition Ring Magazine belt will be designed for the super fight to commemorate the event.
