The risk of Naoya Inoue's home being burglarized was pointed out in a Football Hour comedy routine!
An incident occurred where Naoya Inoue's home was burglarized while he was in the middle of a unification bout. The match was broadcast live, which meant that not only Inoue himself but also his family would have been at the venue to cheer him on, leaving his home completely empty. There is a comedy routine that points out the danger of such a situation: a routine by the comedy duo Football Hour.
One of Football Hour's signature bits is titled 'Worried About Burglars,' in which Iwao expresses his concern about his home being broken into while he is performing a live comedy routine.
In the routine, Iwao first tells Goto that 'appearing on a live broadcast is like announcing to the world that I am not home right now,' and urges him to finish the routine quickly because he is worried about burglars. He then proceeds to fire off a series of half-hearted jokes in an attempt to get Goto to say, 'That's enough!'
In the end, the 'That's enough!' line is delivered, and Iwao dashes out of the studio like a rabbit. While it is not necessarily because they are 'Football Hour,' there have indeed been cases overseas where burglars have targeted the homes of soccer players while they are playing in matches. Therefore, Iwao's argument is by no means absurd, and in fact, such an incident has now actually occurred.
