    For those who have followed Casimero how good of a fighter is Casimero and what makes him a dangerous opponent for Inoue?
    I will admit I do not know too much about Casimero and have only seen a few of his fights, including against Tete. From what I've seen of him he's an excellent puncher, knows how to use distance while lowering his guard, darts in and out effectively, and does well punching from odd angles.

    Very good fighter and a danger for everyone at 118.
    That said, I expect a mid round KO for Gojira, by bodyshot.

    Gotta admit, that spinning uppercut that ended the fight was pretty dope. @ 24:41

    Top 10 active lower weight fighter. I personally rate him above ioka,rungvisai and tanaka. Thudding power, fights smarter than what people actually see, has a problem of inconsistency depending on his opponent. Prepared to eat my words that he has the highest chance against inoue in 118 pre donaire-inoue fight

    Bump.
    What a show this guy put on! If there’s one guy who could really give Inoue hell it’s Casimero!

    A young slugger with a lot of bravado! Already speaking English to establish himself a great in America. I thought he had heavy hands, nice little showcase fight for his us debut. Hopefully he keeps winning and bringing excitement to the sport!

    He's not really a dangerous opponent for Inoue and will get KTFO. But he's free of meaningful weight-making now, very experienced, and he knows his way around the ring. He's a very welcome addition at the poundage.

    I expect him to come unstuck against inoue who is just different gravy all together... But I've had alot of love for casimero ever since he flattened the council estate lesbian

    Wild. Free swinging. May be hard to defend against this type of attack.

    Casimero didn't respect Micah so went in to destroy.But needs to be slicker against Inoue.

    Bump. We’re just about close to seeing what Quadros Alas is truly made of against El Chacal. Will his power be the difference against Rigo and can he actually pull off a stoppage or will he submit to the boxing lesson to the old master?

    Curious to know where he ranks if he manages to beat Rigo convincingly. Definitely not an easy fight for him and even Casimero knows it.
