Let's say he got lucky to climb the top 5, the champions here are really tough to beat and I doubt Casimero can match those 2 champions holding the super bantamweight titles.

I hope Casimero can be considered by Inoue once the latter moved up weight. Inoue is expected not to go directly facing those champions once he moved up but for that fight against Casimero should happen, the Quadro Alas of PH should at least make it to the top rankings to be considered.

IMO those 2 champions at super bantamweight division is more easier than Inoue, if Casimero will fight against Inoue, there's no hope Casimero can win. At least Casimero need to beat either 2-3 boxers at this weight before taking a challenge to fight one of those champions, I think Murodjon Akhmadalievb is easier than Stephen Fulton to beat. It seems there's no way for Casimero to escape against Inoue, we might see they will fight each other sooner or later.

Yes, it is as you say, but it would have been excellent if Casimero could achieve something like that, because if he succeeds and can put up a good fight with Inoue it would be great, of course from the point of view how we can make the comparison between the two, for me Inoue he is very old, that is to say, he is on another level, that kind of doesn't suit Casimero much, at this moment a fight like this, I think Casimero would come out badly, it's not that he's bad, but I think that Inoue has a better alignment, more with everything he has achieved, for me he will be the undisputed, it will be very difficult to win a fight right now against the Japanese, he is very active and very serene, his fights are masterful.

Seeing Casimero heavily favored from the poll is not really that surprising and people are just waiting for his comeback since he was stripped by his WBO belt. So far, things are going well with Casimero inside his camp and I'm just not used that he's so silent since this bout has been finalized, so I assume that they're so serious inside the camp and with just a little 2 weeks left from his fight, it seems that he doesn't have that weight struggles anymore. Already excited about his return!

Anyway, here's an article I found earlier regarding Casimero's plans should he succeed in his upcoming fight.

Quote

"If I win against Akaho I want Naoya Inoue next as long as he does not run. I respect Akaho because he will fight me, he is not afraid," -Casimero said in an interview with A-Sign Boxing.

https://www.gmanetwork.com/news/sports/boxing/850209/john-riel-casimero-targets-inoue-showdown-after-ryo-akaho-fight/story/

When I thought that Casimero is quietly preparing for his fight against Akaho, he had to open his mouth and then call out Inoue hehehe.

Maybe that's what really his target, I mean we have been waiting for this fight against Inoue, unfortunately he can't make the weight at 118 lbs. But since both of them are moving up to 122 lbs, this fight is inevitable.

But first Casimero should take care of his business here and beat Akaho convincingly.

I think that Casimero should not have said that, in my country something is said: "You can't say chickens before birth," I think it must first concentrate on the fight against Akaho, I know that a boxer should and has to have its self -esteem For the heavens, but in this case you first have to guarantee the victory, go directly to Indeue is something very good and quite risky, I would not really do it, at least until Akaho won, that by my essential, one can always challenge someone Yes and only if he has a blunt victory, but if Casimero loses with what face he can ask for a fight against Inoue, this is what he must say before speaking.

Funny thing is we aren't used by Casimero's silence after climbing the super bantamweight division, it is so unlikely of him to be this serious without making any appearances or noise for teasing his foes. But it's a good thing because he really is serious this time and will just want to surprise the world again of his return after the issue he was in few months before. Anyway, I'm really positive that he can defeat Akaho, I just want to see how will Casimero deliver the message in this division.

For me, just take it with a grain of salt. Maybe the media are not just following Casimero right now that's why no words coming from him are being made. A few days before the fight, I believed that will be the time we can some fresh related news about Casimero.

It's now around 2 weeks before this fight will officially take. Casimero is surely excited to return to the ring after months of being on hiatus.

That might be true or not, but that is not important as long as Casimero is now more serious on his future fight because this might be his last chance to prove his worthiness. If he cannot defeat Akaho then it might be best for him to say his goodbyes in the industry he loved as there's nothing he can do anymore. But as per chances, Casimero has the upper hand, and so I expect that he won't be struggling this time around especially now that his weight is not holding him anymore.

That's the right thing to do, it's not a championship fight for him but he should think about where he is now, if he wants to be a champion again, he cannot loss a single game. Who knows, he might face Inoue going forward, but like I said, he has to continue winning until he will be a challenger to the champion.

Don't worry folks, Casimero exactly know the position he is in currently and the gravity of consequence if he cannot make it past this fight. That fact alone is enough for Casimero to strive hard in this new division, and he can't just give up because he haven't had the chance yet to dance with Inoue. We never know, Bob Arum might choose him for Inoue's debut.

Yes, you're right, but for a moment let's imagine that we are Casimero, it's hard, because the pressure he must be feeling is very great, first he has much more to lose than to win and apart from that Casimero talks that he wants to fight Inoue, and this it puts much more pressure on him, in that case where he really wanted to fight Inoue (which is a natural feeling) he would have challenged him if and only if he already had the victory and he would have done it in the middle of the round as soon as the fight had finished, because It is thus and only thus the most favorable way to be able to challenge, with a good victory.

Boxers like Casimero sometimes get very emotional and can say things that shouldn't be said, but since he spoke, he has to win no matter what.
