Casimero will because he needed to, he won't have the chance to redeem his name and situation if he will just barely defeat Akaho because that will just gather speculations that he don't have enough skills to carry out a plan to defeat the champions in this division. He himself knows that he needs to deliver an impressive win to break the chain.
I agree with that. He needs to make sure that he will end this fight with an impressive outcome, if he wanted to be feel in this new division he should bring something for the fans, though we all knew that he already have his resume way back from his old weight division but now, it's a new one and there are champs who are more ready to face him and in beating him if chances to have a faceoff takes place.
Regarding the politics with Fulton, Inoue and Akhmadaliev. Casimero shouldn't have to worry about that now because he still quite far from reality to meet those people, he need to overcome his debut first before anything else. About that, I'm also curious as well about Casimero's plan to defeat Akaho.
He should focus on how he will deliver the signal that he is in business, moving to those known names in this division. Casimero needs to bring himself and a call from the fans for that chance of a title or money fight.
