    Guillermo Rigondeaux believes Willie Casey is not a worthy opponent and has vowed to outclass the Irishman in Dublin on March 19.
    Casey was handed a surprise shot at the WBA interim belt after taking the European super-bantamweight title in November, but the Cuban holder feels it is a step too far for the Limerick man.
    Rigondeaux has branded Casey one-dimensional and the two-time Olympic gold medallist is keen to prove he is a class above the challenger.
    "Casey doesn't belong in the same ring as me," he told fightnews.com. "But I admire his courage for wanting to fight me. I am world champion. Casey and all of the fans in attendance will see a true world champion in action March 19.
    "If Casey thinks I'm going to Ireland to lose my world title belt, he's making a big mistake because I'm going to win, and in sensational fashion.
    "He is tailor-made for me. I watched a couple of rounds of Casey's previous fights and concluded that he's a bit of a one-trick pony.
    "We are as far apart in class as in residence, make no mistake about that and when the bell rings March 19th, that will certainly be evident to all."

    I think that account is quite accurate.

    Casey will have to go some to win this.

    theres still no need for all this slabberin'

    for example this is coming from rigo's managers facebook:

    "I will knock out Casey in four rounds. I know a lot of people want to see me fight more rounds. So, if TV wants, they can pick some of Casey's brothers for me to fight after I knock out Little Bang . That way, the audience can see me fight some more rounds" noted Guillermo 'El Chacal' Rigondeaux today in Miami

    Is there a chance rigo is not taking this fight seriously?

    Well, he's right, Casey doesnt deserve a shot and he is pretty much tailor-made for Rigo. A pressure-fighter with little to no technique against an extremely accurate, quick and hard-hitting counter-puncher. I'm going to this though so I hope it doesnt end early anyways.

    I'd get money down on that then quickly because it will probably get worse as time goes on.

    It was 1/2 the other day so it's already coming in.

    Rigondeaux cost me about two hundred and fifty quid with his pathetic showing from about halfway through his last fight. ****.

    You're correct about that.

    To be honest I don't see how Casey is going to win? The class difference in virtually every aspect is massive. It can't be overstated. The only thing he has going for him is it being in Ireland and he should be in inspired form. Crazy odds.
