dont know about that, Donaire is a perfect example of how moving up a few pounds can turn you from a knockout puncher to a accumulation guy.Not unusual for these smaller guys to move up as they get a bit older. Look at Roberto Duran when he started boxing, 4 of his first 5 fights were fought at under 120 lbs. and he fought as high as 174 lbs. near the end of his career.
Inoue will carry his power for 3-4 more weight classes is how I see it if he decides to go up in weight a few more times during his career.
Also might be different in the damage he can take.
Vic Darchiniyan is another one.
