[Boxing] Casimero vs Akaho - December 3

[Cling18]

It's good that Casimero is just keeping his mouth shut at this fight.

Maybe he was being advised not to make too many talks and just do all the talking thru his punches in the actual fight. Akaho, on the other hand, is not giving any trash talks too and I'm sure he wasn't like that, and that may be the reason why Casimero is just silent too.

Casimero needs to do his best to win this fight. Still, a long way to go for him to be considered for a big match right now that's why every win is a must.

Not really surprised that this Ryo Akaho is also silent since their fight has been scheduled because Japanese people are known to be polite, courteous and very respectful towards other people. However, Casimero is different, this man is known to be messing with you in the head until the day of the fight. He just never stops talking about anything that sometimes he already looks like a fool, but this time is different. He is now under the radar pouring all his days in training for this fight of redemption.

I haven't check Akaho's record but probably this could be the first time that he might be facing at least a well known boxer, so he didn't know how to react. As you compare to Inoue, wherein he always respond to Casimero's taunt on social media.

Overall though, Japanese fighters are respectful towards their opponent and as long as they are going to be respected, then there are no bad mouthing. And yes, definitely, there is a issue on the language as well.

Japanese fighters do have that kind of tradition, they respect people and like what you have said, if there's no badmouthing they will not engage
they will just fight for a win as culture state that they needed to bring everything with pride.

On the other side, Casimero should learn from it and do the same, just fight and show what he got inside the ring.

Better to do it in action, not in words, proving something can be concluded after the fight!

I've noticed the same thing with Japanese boxers. They aren't bad mouthing against their opponents which make them gain respect in return. It's their nature to respect other culture which is actually one of their best traits.

Casimero also has the same personality. He prefers proving his strength in the ring rather than boasting and saying bad things about his opponents just like what he did on his previous matches.
Their silence actually makes the fight more interesting.

Yes you are right that mate casimero must do an action than words because as we observe his last fight he speak too much and for now to keep moving forward casimero must do his rule he must quite but deadly inside the ring it because we all know how akaho plays. Akaho is one of the good boxers, so casimero must not underestimate his opponent and do his best in the fight.

[mirakal]

It's good that Casimero is just keeping his mouth shut at this fight.

Casimero has his mouth shut because he has nothing to say, what would he say? what would he boast about? When fighters have one or more belts, they show off and talk a lot to get more attention from the media and also put psychological pressure on their opponent, it turns out that in this case Casimero has nothing to show off for that reason he can only remain silent and wait for fight day and see if he can win this fight, that's all he can do

We can't blame the community if they are not used to seeing Casimero's changed behavior right now as that wasn't his usual. However, you have a point though that it might not make sense to make some noise because he is currently not a champion now. However, that's not the reason I'm thinking but because of those events that lead to being stripped out of his belt, not just once but twice.

Regardless, a bit of trash talk should be nice to start some fire. Seems boring if these 2 boxers won't start making some noise thru trash talks.

Or maybe he learned his lessons not to open his mouth, or at least back it up, and since he has no belts right now, he can't boast of anything. He can attack Inoue in social media, but not sure if Inoue will be interested at him since he has no belt at all.

Nevertheless, if he can proved once again that he still has that brandish style and has the knock out power, maybe the super bantamweight including the champion will take notice of him. Right now, it's better for him to really zip his mouth and do the talking in the ring.

Well, right now, Casimero should know his place first as he is a first timer in this division and might be best for him to lower his head first because he doesn't have anything yet to boast. Not sure what happened to him lately after he was stripped because that made him changed but there's surely a reason why or he maybe just learned his lesson because having a bigmouth seems not helping his situation.

After this, if Casimero will successfully defeat Akaho, we might see some speculations regarding him and Inoue.

I've noticed the same thing with Japanese boxers. They aren't bad mouthing against their opponents which make them gain respect in return. It's their nature to respect other culture which is actually one of their best traits.

I think that is one of the disciplines of Japanese boxers.  They respect and never belittle their opponent.  I agree, that it is also their culture.  They give respect to sports and athletes that participate in it no matter how skillful or not they are.

Casimero also has the same personality. He prefers proving his strength in the ring rather than boasting and saying bad things about his opponents just like what he did on his previous matches.
Their silence actually makes the fight more interesting.

It was before until he found out that bragging and boasting give his fight more popularity and interest.  It is disrespectful to showboat when an opponent got knock down.  And Casimero often displays disrespect for his opponent in his previous fights.  This is another reason why I don't like Casimero that much, because of his attitude inside and outside the ring.

Well, right now, Casimero should know his place first as he is a first timer in this division and might be best for him to lower his head first because he doesn't have anything yet to boast. Not sure what happened to him lately after he was stripped because that made him changed but there's surely a reason why or he maybe just learned his lesson because having a bigmouth seems not helping his situation.

Indeed he has to prove himself on this fight.  Going up after losing the titles and the scandal that cost him his title is a huge factor that downgrade his popularity.  So he should KO Akaho in this fight to regain those lost popularity and once again prove that Casimero did not fall to becoming an oridnary boxer after moving up his weight division.

After this, if Casimero will successfully defeat Akaho, we might see some speculations regarding him and Inoue.

I think this will happen after Inoue goes up in weight division but right now, Casimero doesn't have the record or popularity to back him up in order to pull a match against Inoue.  In short, Casimero virtually goes back to where he started.

Prior to becoming a bantamweight champion, Casimero has been like this before, I mean willing to take challenges and then proving everyone that he is for real.

Remember that he should to travel to the enemy's territories and beat their champion, so that's how Casimero's personality is. But he did take it a notch when he become champion, and he can't shut that big mouth of his even calling Inoue.

After this, if Casimero will successfully defeat Akaho, we might see some speculations regarding him and Inoue.

There are already some video of his circulating already, and who knows, once he defeated Akaho he will open that big mouth of his and not just calling Inoue, but the rest of the champion like Stephen Fulton.

[Baofeng]

We also have to consider the quality of opponents Casimero has face in the past as compare to Akaho.

Akaho has failed in this two world championship attempts, while Casimero has been tearing the bantamweight leading to the failed fight against Paul Butler. And John Riel is the younger of the two, the road warrior but obviously the experience goes to Akaho as he has been professional boxers for 17 years as to Casimero's 15. But again as I have said, the key difference is the opponents that they have fought and so I think this is the big advantage for John Riel Casimero to win impressively.

That's the only advantage I see on Akaho, but overall, maybe 80% advantages goes to Casimero. I hope he is still the same, the hunger to win should still be there so he will beat Akaho impressively, the best way to win is via KO and that should be his goal in this fight.

Yeah, but being a road warrior like Casimero, who have traveled 5 continents to defend or get the belt from the home town champion? That is already a big experience in his belt, so to speak.

And I do agree that if he wanted to impressive everyone, including rank and the champion in this division, is to win a knockout, at least like giving the rest of the 122 lbs that he is ready in this division and willing to face anyone and that they are going to get knock out as well.

Sending a signal to gain the attentions of everyone especially the promoters, if he will win that way he will get decent hype under his name, we know him as he really love playing with fame, he might call someone's name once he got the interview. Or he might do something that will gather the fans' support to bring him to a money fight or a negotiation for a title fight.

But, for us to discuss his next fight, we need to see him first, winning this match with an impressive outcome.

By doing that, he will make his step earn an extra one, then we never know what will be the next in his story line.

[Vaculin]

I agree that a knockout will be the ultimate goal for Casimero to retrieve what he has lost recently, except for that title, obviously. But a win is a win even if it is just a UD. He should just forget about achieving more if he cannot really do it this time as he still needs some adjustment because he haven't got any fights for some time now. Defeating Akaho will still mean the same thing, he will still go through the ranks.

Right, if he wants to keep his name of top of this new division, he should come in with a bang, so his goal is to really win by a knockout. And that is what known from Casimero, so arrogant and brandish that you hate him sometimes but he delivered the goods when he was at the bantamweight, it just he fell short of fighting Butler or Inoue.

But since he move up to super bantamweight, he need to be impressive and just not just a ordinary win because he is not a ordinary boxer. He has the talent and the boxer and I think he can regain back, at least one title in 122 lbs will do good for him.

[serjent05]

Akaho has failed in this two world championship attempts, while Casimero has been tearing the bantamweight leading to the failed fight against Paul Butler.

But again as I have said, the key difference is the opponents that they have fought and so I think this is the big advantage for John Riel Casimero to win impressively.

There is no doubt that Casimero is a fearless boxer.  I watched the fight when he go to the country of the champion and got mobbed by the audience when he won the fight.  I think that is the fight that put Casimero on the map  .  About experience, 17 years and 15 years is almost even when it comes to determining a veteran boxer.  They both have lots of fights, lots of pressure, and downfall, so basically I think no one has an advantage when it comes to boxing experience. 

The thing is Casimero is a controversial boxer which made him more popular than Akaho.  Between boxers, the younger primed boxer has more advantages than the older primed boxer especially when the older boxer is about to get passed his prime.  So between I believe Casimero has the advantage in this fight.

Well, right now, Casimero should know his place first as he is a first timer in this division and might be best for him to lower his head first because he doesn't have anything yet to boast. Not sure what happened to him lately after he was stripped because that made him changed but there's surely a reason why or he maybe just learned his lesson because having a bigmouth seems not helping his situation.

He should just forget about achieving more if he cannot really do it this time as he still needs some adjustment because he haven't got any fights for some time now. Defeating Akaho will still mean the same thing, he will still go through the ranks.

If ever Casimero has to win via UD, he must show the audience that he dominates the fight.  A close UD fight will somehow put Casimero's ability to compete in that division questionable.

[BitDane]

And that is what known from Casimero, so arrogant and brandish that you hate him sometimes but he delivered the goods when he was at the bantamweight, it just he fell short of fighting Butler or Inoue.

I do not think that Casimero's name will explode after defeating Akaho.  As far as I know Akaho is still an unknown boxer, so defeating him doesn't mean Casimero will be on top again.  If Casimero wanted to be listed as among the top contender of the Division, I believe he needs to fight more boxers and even a rematch with Tete and beat him.  That maybe put Casimero to the ranking again.

But since he move up to super bantamweight, he need to be impressive and just not just a ordinary win because he is not a ordinary boxer. He has the talent and the boxer and I think he can regain back, at least one title in 122 lbs will do good for him.

I agree, a KO is a good win, or a dominating performance that will give him a mile score in UD if the fight lasted till the final round.

[Jawhead999]

I believe he needs to fight more boxers and even a rematch with Tete and beat him.  That maybe put Casimero to the ranking again.

Did you mean Zolani Tete? Casimero won via TKO against him on 2019, I don't think there's much hype of boxing fans want a rematch between Casimero vs Tete. Casimero need to challenge a champion if he want to gain his popularity, right now either Casimero and Akaho are still unknown boxer out there.

I agree, a KO is a good win, or a dominating performance that will give him a mile score in UD if the fight lasted till the final round.

I doubt he can win via KO, his previous match against Guillermo Rigondeaux is really close, although he still win via split decision.

[stadus]

Looking at the poll, there is a user here who voted for Ryo Akaho? Who are you and why did you choose him? Nah, just joking!

I'm just glad to see that there's someone here who is in favor to the Japanese boxer and not John Riel Casimero, surprising enough but it is a good thing though because this means that there is indeed a competition here. Though I'm just not sure if he can really make some difference here because I'm seeing this Ryo as a local boxer which is kinda different to Casimero's league who is fighting in the mainstream.

A rematch with Tete I think won't happen in the next few years as I have read in one article that he was suspended from boxing as he was found to have an illegal substance in his body, just forgot where I read that one but I'll post the link if ever i found that again.

With regards to Rigo vs Casimero, there was no fighting that have happened there because Rigo didn't come to the ring that night to fight, he was in his usual self, the one that is on the defensive mode and tried not to engage his opponent  .

I'm closely following the conditioning of Casimero through his vlog and the vlog of his friend in Thailand and i could see that he is all set and ready to go and for me there's a high chance that he would win via KO.

edit:

Team Quadro Alas is already in the Paradise City South Korea as of this writing.

Of course, that's why we have some times kinds of unexpected events where we see an upset because the supposed boxer will dominate his opponent is taking a lot of damage and is mostly stunned by an underdog opponent. This is a sport and with enough practice and skill to adapt to how to counter his opponents throughout the rounds will gonna his ace to win the fight. Casimero should not underestimate his opponent because he hasn't been in the ring for a long time and he might be caught by a surprise.

He should, instead, must train harder to get an impressive win. He was inactive due to the fact that he was disqualified, I hope he will forget the past and will just focus on the future, maybe make that as an inspiration that making the same mistake will surely end his career in boxing.

I understand that there's too many questions up in our mind that needs answer, currently, all we can do is wait for Casimero to finish his bout against Ryo Akaho and after that maybe we can get some answers to it. It seems impossible to do but Casimero in the bantamweight is already an old news because he is now entering the super-bantam, so it's pretty much better if we just forget what he did in that division because he is now starting from the bottom again.

[Natalim]

It's good that Casimero is just keeping his mouth shut at this fight.

Maybe he was being advised not to make too many talks and just do all the talking thru his punches in the actual fight. Akaho, on the other hand, is not giving any trash talks too and I'm sure he wasn't like that, and that may be the reason why Casimero is just silent too.

Casimero needs to do his best to win this fight. Still, a long way to go for him to be considered for a big match right now that's why every win is a must.

Not really surprised that this Ryo Akaho is also silent since their fight has been scheduled because Japanese people are known to be polite, courteous and very respectful towards other people. However, Casimero is different, this man is known to be messing with you in the head until the day of the fight. He just never stops talking about anything that sometimes he already looks like a fool, but this time is different. He is now under the radar pouring all his days in training for this fight of redemption.

I haven't check Akaho's record but probably this could be the first time that he might be facing at least a well known boxer, so he didn't know how to react. As you compare to Inoue, wherein he always respond to Casimero's taunt on social media.

Overall though, Japanese fighters are respectful towards their opponent and as long as they are going to be respected, then there are no bad mouthing. And yes, definitely, there is a issue on the language as well.

Japanese fighters do have that kind of tradition, they respect people and like what you have said, if there's no badmouthing they will not engage
they will just fight for a win as culture state that they needed to bring everything with pride.

On the other side, Casimero should learn from it and do the same, just fight and show what he got inside the ring.

Better to do it in action, not in words, proving something can be concluded after the fight!

I've noticed the same thing with Japanese boxers. They aren't bad mouthing against their opponents which make them gain respect in return. It's their nature to respect other culture which is actually one of their best traits.

Casimero also has the same personality. He prefers proving his strength in the ring rather than boasting and saying bad things about his opponents just like what he did on his previous matches.
Their silence actually makes the fight more interesting.

That's what they are known for, since they were kids they are already trained to respect others and taught to be courteous which explains why we cannot see any Japanese boxers who speaks ill languages with the likes of Inoue, Akaho, and Ioka to name a few.

In contrast with Casimero, he is known to be messing with the other boxers to make some hype or to trigger them to make things much easier for him because he is already messed up in the head. But yes, Casimero is not the kind who boast, he just wanted to talk like that because that is his way.
