[Boxing] Inoue vs Casimero Bantamweight Unification Fight

[Kemarit]

@Sanitough - definitely, we are going to support Casimero here, Filipinos are known to be a boxing "fanatic". We have seen it thru Manny Pacquiao 

33% odds is very attractive indeed, the match is still like two months from now so we haven't seen in sportbet.io. But I'm sure as the fight schedule gets closer, they will add this up, so we have to wait and see. Perhaps we can see some small changes and jumps on the odds but we are sure that Casimero will be the underdog here.

[dunfida]

Thank you for adding the poll, it's 2-0 so far in favor of casimero. Where are the Inoue fans here, please cast your votes now so we will know how many are you. lol.

I'm pretty sure there are Inoue fans here, but maybe they don't want to cast their vote as early as today.

And there could be Filipinos who wanted to vote for Inoue, but then again he will be fighting against their compatriot so we might see them going by their "hearts" and will be voting for Johnriel here. 

There are plenty of Inoue fans, but nobody is going to be betting on him to win because the odds simply aren't great.

They're like 2/9 or 1/4 in most places, whereas Casimero has more juicy odds of 3/1.

I think the challenger has a decent chance to dethrone Inoue, definitely more than a 33% chance like the odds imply.

These odds would change for sure as the main event approaches but its true that Casimero odds is way more attractive and
i can really see the higher chance for some upset. 

I am glad the odds are already out, by the way.. what sportsbook you are using because I can find it  in sportsbet right now?

And that odds of Casimero to win, I would bet on him all day as I believe in my "Kabayan" to win, he claimed he is the real monster.

I think it's accurate though, but let's confirm that if there's a crypto sportsbook that offers that odds already.

I maybe side the Filipino here, not because I think he is better than Inoue, but because of that very attractive odds.
My prediction here is either any boxer could win, so the value is on Inoue.

Most poster in this thread think Casimero would win, so we can assume that they are betting for Casimero and with that they will be getting a sweet odds.
Good to see that odds are available already in other sportsbook but of course we will wait until it's on our favorite crypto sportsbook.
I did a quick check now, it's still not on sportsbet.

Update of this fight.

https://www.rappler.com/sports/by-sport/boxing-mma/252457-pressure-on-inoue-to-win-over-casimero

It’s Naoya Inoue, not him, who’s feeling the pressure in their unifying bantamweight title duel on Saturday, April 25 (Sunday, April 26, Philippine time).

“Right now, I feel as though I’m carrying all the weight on my shoulders. If I don’t win a match of this level now, I think my future will be tough,” Inoue told Japan Forward.

Looks like Inoue is really respecting his opponent, and maybe he sees the big possibility that he might lose in the match to feel that pressure.

He has to, he already taste the struggle against Donaire although he wins and now this younger Filipino Warrior that came from a big win is challenging him, Casimero would be stupid to challenge the monster if he doesn't see a chance of winning in the fight.

I think Casimero have advantage to Inoue bacause seeing his training, hard work give him more advantage to win from inoue. Also Casimero seem a very tough guy that can do all his best just to win. While Inoue he seem a young competative guy who also have potential to win to his next battle  but right now for me Casimero will be the possible winner to thier battle.

We can't see it on their training alone as surely both boxers are training hard to win this anticipated fight, in short, they don't take this challenge lightly and with their hard work, this ensures us an entertaining fight to watch.

I can say the advantage is on Inoue as he is the favorites on the betting odds, at least that's what people are seeing as oddsmakers makes betting odds based on what people think about a certain fight.

Casimero has the advantage in this fight, but the reputation that INOUE gave to the people make the hype!
Remember when INOUE fought Flash Donaire? it was a respectable fight which makes him realize that Filipino boxers are really that intimidating and powerful.
But let us take aside DONAIRE! Casimero is another boxer who needs our respect!

This is what i like on Inoue where this kid stays humble or down to earth but pretty sure they do prepare something on that upcoming fight.
Its just a sign of respect or appreciation towards Casimeros capability.Well, words cant be spoken if they havent seen such potential, you can
feel up the pressure or tremble if your opponent is a strong one.

My first time on seeing Inoue bleed too much on a  fight which i havent seen on its previous fights.

Casimero on the main spotlight now huh. Last time I saw Casimero is with the Thailander that uses a dirty trick in fighting on which he have lost but able to get th rematch then won. I knew that time that Casimero has something to show off, his fighting style is great and the fact that he is a filipino is already a proof of his power. On the other bench with Inoue, this guy is younger and has a lot to do. Respect for him after deafeating The Filipino flash, Donaire. The pressure on Inoue is at large which can greatly affect his mindset during the fight. My bet is on Casimero.

You should watch his last fight, that was the big fight of his career and his big win IMO, and that leads to Inoue because of the win.

I thought INOUE's last fight was with The Philippines flash Nonito Donaire?

I am still looking forward and stronger with the PINOY pride boxer Casimero has a big chance to win on this match.
Donaire which is older than Casimero made the fight to last until the last seconds.
This will be a different match as the younger PINOY is faster and stronger.

Yes, Inoue's last fight was with Donaire.

And Casimero is Tete which he destroyed in 3 rounds. That's why this fight is really closer than in the betting odds in paper because Casimero is explosive as compare to Donaire, which we may not admit but Nonito is already past his prime when he fought Donaire.

I think they are just supporting Casimero and wanted to see an upset win to get more reward.  I also support Casimero but I do not think that he has more chance of winning against Inoue.  I watched  Casimero fight and Nonito Donaire is way better than him when it comes to tactics and footwork but ended being beaten by the Japanese fighter.

That maybe the turning point, Casimero is younger and as a younger fighter he is stronger but I do not think he is faster than Donaire.

[Finestream]

What I saw during that fight is that Inoue was stronger and faster than Donaire, of course Donaire with his experience he also hit Inoue with some good shots but not enough power to put Inoue in the canvas, look at the jabs landed by Inoue, that's the difference maker, he can score against Donaire with his jabs and he is smart enough to protect himself especially the eye and later he took over the fight.

maybe we can watch the replay again / Naoya inoue vs Nonito donaire highlights and let's make a judgement again, as I see it, Donaire hit Inoue because he is good with his counter punch but it Inoue was so quick enough compared to Donaire.

I understand that the Filipino is the flash, but at his age, he also has slowed down.

Inoue has some chin perhaps that's why or maybe Donaire didn't hit him with full force, but again, as we can see in the post-fight, Donaire broke Inoue's orbital bone.

But we will have to see how Casimero will react if he is hit by Inoue's power punches, he himself can dish some vicious punches and we have seen Inoue's chin already.

Actually I am just starting to get interested with Casimero when he beat Tete, and I believe this is one hell of a big fight for him and we can't use Tete as a sole basis that he will win here, these two fighters are very impressive fighter so this is surely not a boring fighter.

In terms of skills, I think Inoue has the edge but it's about a game plan and these boxers are not making a game plan that would make the fight last in 12 rounds.

Aside from game plan, lots of training and preparation would help when they are finally inside the ring. Even if you know good strategies and techniques on how to stop the fight, if you have insufficient training, I guess those strategies won't easily work. I strongly believe that focus on training will have big impact in the final battle.
