[Boxing] Inoue vs Casimero Bantamweight Unification Fight

[Japinat]

Casimero can do what he wants to do, it's true he is really disrespectful, but that's him, and IMO, it's not nice that Donaire back out in a suppose to be big fight between him and Casimero because he got disrespected, it looks like he was afraid of fighting Casimero that he could persecute in the ring to teach him a lesson.

Or maybe it's just another drama in this sport. It's not hard to talk behind doors since they are both Pinoy, right? Just thinking that since there' pandemic and promoters are looking for more interest from the boxing fans, with Casimero and Donaire it's only their local fans that will possibly watch and bet with them, unlike with Inoue, there are big market behind Inoue and with how Casimero engaged with the fans, the trash talks bring him to this level.

He's also a champion and for sure he has that skills and capabilities, plus he's camp (MP) developed more from his skills. This fight with Inoue is very exciting. Both fighters are aggressive in terms of throwing heavy punches and countering the attacks of their opponents.

I don't think so, Donaire is very popular as he beat some big names in the past, so about selling the fight, it's not a problem IMO. Of course Inoue vs Casimero or Donaire vs Inoue is good, but I really think the issue between Donaire and Casimero is serious and they have to settle it inside the ring.

But for now, the first match that we may see is Inoue vs Casimero, as Inoue already indicated his interest on this match. The tale of the tape is already available and the schedule on this site says Dec 18, 10PM ET at MGM Grand Las Vegas. Don't know if this is already official.

9 years pro vs 14 years pro based on the tale of the tape, that's the advantage of Casimero. Inoue has better boxing skills and power, so Casimero has to be very careful as Inoue vow down to beat Casimero to the ground just like what he did on the fighters that he knock out early. No more trash talk from Casimero, I hope he is already busy preparing for this big fight.

I hope he is already busy preparing for this big fight.

Based on the news I read, Casimero stays in the US to continue his training, that kind of act alone shows his dedication to improve more that's why he is preparing for this upcoming fight. It's a dream match for him as he has been calling Inoue ever since, and since Inoue is the number 1 in his division, it's his goal to beat Inoue so he will get the position, and once he is at the top, he will be the one to dictate the terms.

That's an uphill battle because Inoue is not only the number 1 in his division, but he is also in the top 3 pounds for pound raking in the world, however, nothing is impossible so I don't underestimate the chance of Casimero.  If we will see very attractive odds, I might bet on Casimero winning via kO or decision.

I take at odds between +400 to +800.. I guess it's worth risk even if Inoue is the heavy favorite.

Yeah, he is still in the US and not going back to the Philippines, instead what he did or maybe MP promotions did was to bring his family to the States.

I do hope though that he will not be distracted, on the contrary it might motivate him more to train very hard with his potential clash against one of the best p4p in Inoue. He knows he can't dictate the terms, he is still the B-side in this fight, even if he has a belt.

I don't see any distractions or problems he will face while doing preparations. He was alongside his Filipino team for a long which makes him feel he's still in his hometown, the Philippines. He's also not away from his family now as he requested for it because the pandemic keeps him away for long from his family to his hometown.

There's also no issue about other stuff unlike Manny Pacquiao's recent fight against Ugas that he is full of political activity and a big issue when he left the Philippines for training.

If only pandemic didn't hit the world, we already know by now who's the winner between Casimero and Inoue.

He should be preparing hard for this fight. Regarding the power, I think both has power, so there is a potential that we can see a knock out win with either one of them. In paper its already a dream match, champion vs champion. Still depends on his team, on how they are managing him in terms of contract specially the split price. He still has to go through Donaire (if Nonito wanted) to be the best in this division.

I've heard that Casimero is looking for some additional trainers on his team. But he wants a younger one.

Well in fact that the old timers are better trainers because they have a lot to share because of their experiences.

Maybe because of Him being aggressive that's why he wanted to look for Younger one that will relate on his kind of training wanted. since He needs to be more ready now because we knew how good Inoue as opponent , so casimero team is really facing one of the toughest fight of His career now facing this Japanese boxer.

He can add young trainers but his head trainer should be the one that who is with him all the time, the old trainer knows about him already, his strength and weaknesses and based on what Casimero has achieved now, I can say that they are both successful together, they have a good tandem in short.

They don't need a new trainer seriously, all he needs to do is to follow the instruction of his current trainer where he will follow it no matter how the turn of the fight will be. in that way, they won't be any miscalculations or regret to the result of the fight. Their strategy should work because they have already seen some of the fights of Inoue where he barely survives the fight. however if Inoue will execute some unthinkable strategy in this fight, then it's all over. but there is only one thing to be sure of, the fight will not end by the bell.

That's only a rumor, I like to know if Casimero confirms it soon. If they'll hire a young trainer, maybe because they see that there's more they can improve on Casimero as his opponent is no longer a joke, Inoue is a tough fighter and Casimero has to be smart enough in the ring to beat the monster, so let's see.

Not a big deal as long as the fight will be realized, they said they will fight this year and therefore we should wait for the final announcement especially on the side of the promoter. With what is happening in the past that some fights are cancelled or postponed, I cannot be too confident to just think that we will see this fight this December, so it's still 50-50 for me if we will really see this.

Even if its already been declared or realized but still chances of postponement would really be there specially if there are some sort of injuries or something like that which is on  the same on what happened with

Pacquiao and Spence which the fight is almost there but those sudden changes did happen which makes the fans do expect into things which arent going to happen.Just like you then i do have this kind of perception

or thing in mind that lets just wait until this fight comes because even its declared or been confirm but its not 100% for it to happen due to some factors.

That cancellation of the fight between Pacquiao and Spence is acceptable because it's backed by real evidence and it's not good for a boxer to take the risk of losing his sight just by making the fight happen to please the fans. Other fighters' excuses are different, it's careless because they got infected with covid-19 and the fight is cancelled.

Cancellation of the fight sometimes I may think it is a cowardness of the fighter or a boxer.
Why they do cancel if the fight can be extendable even months or a year. Just like Manny Pacquiao and Spence fight, I did not expect other matches aside from them but was a little disappointed when the opponent of Manny Pacquiao is quite has a lot of advantage over him, sounds like it is a mismatch. Now cancelation of the fight will I guess always happen.

Spence has to undergo an operation and he needs to cancel the fight as he doesn't know when exactly his operation will heal or will the doctor give him a clearance that he can fight again. I'm sure it will take a year or more for Spence to recover, so I don't expect to see him fight soon.

The cancellation of the fight was a disadvantage for Manny as he wasn't prepared for the style of Ugas, so doesn't know what is the right game plan during the fight, anyway, according to Manny they will have a rematch, revenge will come in time.

For this particular fight, let's hope no hindrance so it will happen as per schedule.

I don't hear that rumor yet but I heard the issue about getting Freddie Roach, just in case. Casimero doesn't like the idea because Roach is a foreigner and hard to speak English. Harsh lol. That comment made some netizens angered as he don't show any respect to Freddie Roach.

Nonito Donaire also expresses his frustration about Casimero's statement.

Now the question, it's still part of marketing to hype his name for the upcoming fight with Inoue?

That's weird, I mean Casimero has been very successful with his trainers, so why change in the biggest fight of his career. Maybe not trainer per se, but maybe some strength and conditioning coach to help him to be in better shape and to add more speed and power. Not anything against Roach, but I think he is old already, not sure if he can still be effective as a trainer for John Riel.

If casimero will hire another trainer then he will be losing some time for training because Inoue is not a easy opponent and he needs to focus constantly in training now.

i think this is just another  media popularity but the truth is they are in hard training these days and new trainer is not on the table to discuss .

and also I am aiming for Casimero to win here as to take revenge from the lose of His fellow Filipino Donaire .

[lienfaye]

and also I am aiming for Casimero to win here as to take revenge from the lose of His fellow Filipino Donaire .

Im also rooting for Casimero to win here because he is a Filipino. The past fight of Inoue and Donaire is a friendly match and I think there's no hate feelings between each other. If there's someone to avenge Donaire from his lost to Inoue, its only Donaire himself. Thus if ever they were given a chance to be on the ring again that would be an exciting fight.
