October twenty-fifth. Catch-weight of 58g (127.868 lbs). It will be the first action for the thirty-six year old Filipino former champion in 1 year and 12 days. For his 26 year old Japanese opponent (cousin of Kōki, Daiki and Tomoki) it will be the third bout of 2025 so far...going 0-2 against Mexican featherweights Luis Nery and David Picasso.
Casimero was looking kinda meh in 122, and he's doing a catchweight at 128...wtf, did he bloat up too much while on a vacation that he can't even make the featherweight limit or something?
Interesting fight. Not especially compelling, but certainly interesting. Kyonsuke Kameda is clearly being brought in to lose like he was against Picasso and Nery, but he gave credible efforts against both and I thought had a reasonable argument for beating Picasso. Casimero has been sluggish and uninspired for the last half decade or so. He hasn't looked all that world class since his Micah beatdown. The Saul Sanchez blow-out was a massive surprise to me though. Sanchez is a tough, scrappy fighter who is just shy of world class but usually gives a good account of himself when he does step-up. The way Casimero dealt with him was impressive, but Casimero is also old for a little man and not especially little anymore either. I'd prefer to see Kyonsuke Kameda spring the upset and I think he has a solid chance of doing so.
There is a lot of videos of Casimero who running all the times in Tokyo for lost weight, even at Super Featherweight he have some problems for make the weight. It was also the case when he fight Saul Sanchez in Feaweight. His fight will be in Kirghizistan but he actually train in Japan now.
Fake news Casa was playing wit him until he didn’t and japanese kid wanted to quit.No mo games!Shame Casa has no discipline and work ethic one of those what if.. This content is protected
