Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Casimero Bantamweight Unification Fight
I think with Bautista's case though, it was too early for him to be put in the ring with the likes of Ponce de Leon that time. He as too green , inexperience. Yes, he was winning fights in the Philippines and knocking people out but Boom boom was rushed I believed in that fight. And after that lost he wasn't able to recover, the mental trauma for the kid was too much and we haven't heard from him after the devastating lost. Too much hype and he didn't live it up. But with MP's experienced I think we may see another Filipino being a champion under MP's promotion in the future and be able to sustained it, not just like one hit wonder Pinoy fighters.
Bautista became popular (at least in the local boxing scene) because he is knocking out opponents early in his career and people fail to recognized the level of competition Bautista is having on that stage of his career. ALA was grooming him that time and i might say, they were cherry picking opponents for him thus he became a one-punch boy wonder
. Bautista is lacking skill as a boxer, he is flat footed and doesn't move his head often during fights.For me, Z Gorres was the best boxer ALA stable has ever produced but people almost does not appreciate his skills because they want a knock-out puncher type like Manny Pacquaio.
If I'm not mistaken that's not the first time he throw words on Inoue? Not a usual behavior of any PH boxer.
Still, the eagerness of making his "kababayan" proud is on high-level.

Yup, this is not the first time he threw some words on Inoue but seems he is promoting the fight just like what Mayweather, Thurman did, by trash talking
, but i know he can back it up with his punch come fight night.
