It will be an interesting fight if Casimero will bring his entertaining skills. I mean, he loves the attention he must win the crowd here.
He really need to make a comeback win with this one and give the audiences the fight they really wanted to see from him. If his skills are still there, the fans all around the world will demand to see him fighting Inoue next. When their managers see the demand of that fight, they will gonna negotiate and make it come true.
Skills-wise, many will agree with me that Casimero has the edge on this department and I think he would work hard on his training regimen because that would be the only way that he can be sure to beat Akaho, I mean skills are nothing if the hard work is not there, it should work side by side.
For me, Casimero is a marketable fighter because of his antics and he doesn't need to be associated with Inoue at this point in his career because that money fight will come if he will focus on his goal which is to be back on his winning ways.
I definitely agree with you on that, Casimero has an edge over Akaho, but he shouldn't be slacking because of that as he still need to finish this fight with a good outcome to send a message in this division. He needed to work his way again through the ranks just like what he did in bantamweight division and Inoue fight could be interesting but that is not he needed now. There will be a time for that.
Yes, no doubt about that. Casimero clearly have the upper hand compared to this Ryo Akaho who's not that known and doesn't have any impressive figures in his rapsheet. I mean, even the users in this forum are siding and voting in Casimero's favor, and that is not so surprising at all. What I want to see is how would Casimero finish this fight because surely, just like what you have said, Casimero needs to send a message.
If Akaho will engage which he has that capabilities in taking solid punches, it's nice seeing a toe-to-toe exchanges of punches that may lead of them down, a KO will hype the name of whoever will win this fight, siding to Casimero is no longer a surprise, he is a former Champ who never lose his belt into a fight but by technicalities.
A good challenge to him now, preparing for his upcoming fight, a new division which would be the first step in his new journey.
It will be a good fight and knowing that Casimero is somehow careless and would try to bait this Akaho to give what he wanted and that is a toe-to-toe fight. Not sure who will survive at the end but I think Casimero have the advantage, and he should give everything just to shift the fight on his favor as this fight will determine his future in this industry.
