fair ****s if its true i ate the head off some labour fella yesterday who wanted me 2 vote for him went on a rant bout the tv for the casey fight :rofl:rofl
If I was Casey's manager I'd get him to fight Kiko and then push for a decent world-ish level fighter before putting him in with any of the top fighters in the division. For once I'm hoping someone will pull out of the fight for some reason or another and maybe the fight won't happen because Willie is a legend and I don't want to see him getting battered. Then again he loves being the underdog so I guess it's his own decision. Not at all the world title route I'd have in mind but fair play to him at least he has a pair.
Those fights will always be there should he win, lose or draw against Rigo. He could lose to Kiko/Booth etc and never fight for a world title. If he's good enough to beat those guys he can get himself back into contention for another title fight. He's right to take the fight.
:good Willie has only 11 fights and a world title shot. Yeah Rigo is one of the best amateurs of all time but he only has 2 arms and 2 legs so **** it some fighters never get this opportunity, Willie won't quit and we know he'll give it his all and he'll make afew quid at that. WAR CASEY!
