August 14th at Dignity Health Sports Park, live on Showtime. WBO bantamweight title on the line, second defense of Casimero.
Wow, zero responses in >24hrs. I guess everyone is just sick of El Chacal now, even when in great match-ups.
It's not just Casimero's unorthodox style and power, it's Rigo's age. The Rigo that beat Donaire beats everyone, including Inoue.
Rigondeaux comprehensively dismantles and violently KO's Casimero. He's just too damn reckless and foolhardy, sure he can fight cautiously when he wants, like he did against Tete, but that's Tete, all he had to do was brush by that fragile as an eggshell mandible of his, and that's all she wrote. The mere fact that Loma at 130 couldn't drop him, and Ceja in a slugfest couldn't either. Rigo's chin, like Gamboa's is apparently getting sturdier with age. So I doubt some glancing blow from Casimero will be enough to get the job done.
Casimero by brutal ko. Age catches up with Rigo as his reflexes have slowed a bit and he gets caught by the young aggressive Casimero.
Has Rigondeaux been in camp with Ronnie Shields or Pedro Diaz? and has it been a full camp? He has looked like absolute crap under Shields.
Thought this got made months ago lol I'm sorta torn on this fight...I don't really like casimero but don't see rigo beating him now..few years ago I'd have fancied it...sad thing for him is he basically got froze outta the game after upsetting Donaire. I can only see one winner now and am not interested..how olds rigo now...57?
Anyone with a last name TETE in boxing have glass mandible. This is his brother ktfo by Sultan the ref even tried to do some home cooking coming to the aid of TETE's brother everytime he got hit clean.Sultan really clocked him in the 2nd round and Zolani had to run in the ring to rescue his brother.Sultan and Casimero the Tete destroyers.Watch both on Aug 14.

Sultan beat Casimero and can himself crack hard specially the right hand. He doesn't have the trainer to take him to next level though.He lost his belt to Ancajas but the kid can bang..You are right Tete's brother was out. Holy sh#T they had to bring out the oxygen machine. The ref was pulling some BS in there too.
