This is his first fight this year, and for sure, if he wins this fight, there should be at least one more fight before the end of the year. Nghitumbwa has 12 fights, with 11 of his wins being through KO, so the numbers are very impressive. The big question is, were the fighters he KO'd quality fighters? Because if the answer is no, then he is still not on the level of Casimero.

Check this record of Nghitumbwa https://boxrec.com/en/box-pro/814162 he didn't face yet the same caliber as Casimero.

So this will be a tough fighter like Casimero and provably he will be tested here if he's knockout power is really good or maybe Casimero he will be dominated by the champ. Although we don't know if we can see an impressive match up but still its good to watch since its still Casimero will fight against a knockout artist.

actually both of them aren't familiar with each others capacity , though Casimero had faced multiple opponent from other countries yet? Nghitumbwa is a knock out puncher and has a good record as well.

but for me personally ? this is not enough to bring down the champ from Philippines , this will be a big step for Him if he can knock Casimero Down (wishful thinking)

I'm not familiar with Nghitumbwa but based on his record his wins are through knockout and that's impressive. So even Casimero is already a champion and an experienced boxer, he can't be too complacent with his opponent because this can be a surprising boxer he will ever fight.

But i'm confident that Casimero won't let himself be defeated by an unknown boxer because if it does, as you've said, it's a big step for Nghitumbwa's career.

This is Casimero's first fight this year, so he will need to start strong if he hopes to secure an opportunity to fight against a top challenger or champion in this division.

It's true that Casimero tends to start his fights strongly, and his only loss came from a disqualification. Additionally, being in a division where reaching the required weight is not a struggle for him will undoubtedly work in his favor.

However, his upcoming opponent is also a KO artist, making for a great fight that promises some intense action. Given that both fighters have a reputation for quick finishes, it's possible that we might see a bloody and action-packed match. If the fight goes the full 12 rounds, Casimero may be at risk of losing, as he typically wins his fights with his signature counter-punch KO in the earlier rounds.

But it's okay if you think Nghitumbwa might able to beat Casimero, the odds is really high if you bet Nghitumbwa to win in this fight. This reminds me the fight between Rolando Romero vs Gervonta Davis, Romero was a KO artist but he got KO'ed by Davis.

It's really a good fight for Casimero because he won't be dealing with someone who is not willing to go clash in the middle of the ring against him. This guy might not be famous but I think, he will gonna go dance with Casimero in the middle of the ring without running and I think this fight might not go to the judges' decision because we all know that Casimero has been frustrated with his last fight and wanted to regain back his honor and popularity. He will finish this guy as soon as possible but at the same time, he should be more careful because he can also get knockout as well by Nghitumbwa.

Definitely, if he plans to engage in a dance with Casimero, he will need to ensure that he has a solid chin and body. Casimero is skilled in identifying the weaknesses of his opponents, so any flaws will likely be exploited. It's worth noting that he hasn't won an impressive victory in recent times, so perhaps this bout will end without any controversy and gradually elevate Casimero's standing in this division.

This is Casimero's first fight this year, so he will need to start strong if he hopes to secure an opportunity to fight against a top challenger or champion in this division.

But this does not mean that Nghitumbawa punches are weak too. Making 11 of his 13 opponents kiss the canvas means the boxer has a deadly punching power. So we should not underestimate the guy because his opponent is unknown. Isn't Manny Pacquiao a not well-known boxer before he fights Ledwaba?

I understand, but it's really different because if you watch the replay of Nghitumbwa's fought, you will see his footwork is really weird and he almost slipped for few times due to bad footwork Tongue

The stats alone are not the right basis for predicting the winner of this fight. Honestly, it's my first time hearing the name Nghitumbwa, but Casimero has been popular even before he moved up. However, it's okay if some think that Nghitumbwa might beat Casimero, as that's their personal opinion. Besides, we never know the outcome of a future fight.

Although this may not be a tough challenge, Casimero is still considering it a big fight. If he loses against Nghitumbwa, there will be no reason for him to continue fighting as his dreams will be too far to achieve.

Casimero needs to remain disciplined, and eventually he will get a big fight, maybe even challenging the champion, hopefully Inoue. Inoue's fight against Fulton was postponed due to his injury, but I'm optimistic that it will happen this year.

Casimero is no stranger to fighting KO artists. In fact, he likes it because it allows him to show his counter-punching ability that can result in a KO of his opponent. If odds are already available, I would go for Casimero winning via KO, maybe between rounds 1-3.

As per checking this unpopular boxer, at least in my own boxing vocabulary, Filipus Nghitumbwa is currently ranked number 10 by the WBO.

He's not ranked by other major boxing-sanctioning organizations, WBC, WBA, and IBF.

Don't know how Casimero ended up negotiating a deal with Nghitumbwa but regardless, it's good that he didn't remain idle for long waiting for his next fights. Again, just as Casimero did against Akaho on his debut fight at 122, he just needs to again to impress the boxing community with an impressive win as that might result again in improving his rank which will give him more opportunity to settle a deal with top-ranked boxers.

I think that's the most important thing for Casimero, just last December he had a fight with Akaho which didn't turn out good for him. And so with a new manager promoter, it's just time for Casimero to look for a fight and so he won't have that ring rust and he will be active even if it is against a fighter that his lower rank and we never heard before.

He is not getting any younger, although he is still in the peak of his career. But he needs to be active if he still wants to become a world champion in this new division because he still can do it.

another counting for Casimero's record as the opponent seems to be not enough for what Johnriel beaten in his entire career , and also this Opponent has no experiece outside his fellow countrymen so the pressure will always there.

Hoping for the next good fight of casimero and not this kind of match up lol, a aure win for the Filipino Boxer.

I pretty much believe that he can beat this opponent just like what he had said because looking at their record, this Nghitumbwa is not much of a threat and it will be an advantage to Casimero to make a statement again that he's coming for the champions. Hopefully this will materialize though because he badly needed some fights to climb the ladder.

Just like other great boxers, they need a tune-up fight before a big fight. Although it's not guaranteed that Casimero will have a big fight after this, at least this will keep him busy and active this year. Who knows, a big fight may be waiting for him, and therefore he needs to have an impressive win.

In his previous fight, we saw a dominant Casimero despite his opponent acting like he was Oscar-worthy. Later on, he admitted that Casimero had really beaten him.

Anyway, good luck to Casimero. Although we might think it's an easy fight for him, hopefully, we will still see an entertaining fight.

What do you guys think of this fight?

It looks like Casimero is still confident against boxer Nghitumbwa, I'm a little curious about what Casimero said. Nghitumbwa is an easy opponent to beat, I think Casimero's words are too exaggerated and a little arrogant with his betting skills, but in my opinion Nghitumbwa is not a boxer who can be taken lightly as Casimero said.

Indeed, boxer Casimero can be said to be a boxer who has many fans in boxing and he often fights against boxers who are taller than him, but I think fighting Nghitumbwa could be different later, I'm pretty sure the Casimero vs. Nghitumbwa can be won by Nghitumbwa, I'm sure it will happen next May.

Casimero has been like that ever since he step foot in the international ring and even he fought locally, it's not like that we're still not used to his antics if that's what you mean. He always tends to brag, arrogant and exaggerate somethings but that is his usual self as he like to distract his opponents gameplan and mess them in the head, but he can always back his words with action and that is what makes people like him.

I pretty much believe that he can beat this opponent just like what he had said because looking at their record, this Nghitumbwa is not much of a threat and it will be an advantage to Casimero to make a statement again that he's coming for the champions. Hopefully this will materialize though because he badly needed some fights to climb the ladder.

The Security Officer who have love for boxing is highly rated in Namibia for having a lot of energy to hold on to opponent for longtime on the ring. The media speculation on the fight doesn't really favour Nighitumbwa but he is facing the fight coming up on May 13, 2023 in high spirit. I won't be surprised if the fight drag on to the last round and unanimous decision at the end of it all.

I doubt that Casimero loves his opponent coming and if he can take the guy's punches he'll go for knockout or stoppage we have seen it in Micah and Akaho's fight and all the other of his fights once he tasted his opponents punch he will go all out if Nghitumbwa has a weak defense which is obvious based on the videos of his fight he is in big trouble.
Nghitumbwa should live up to his expectation he should have heavy hands if not Casimero will go all out and knock him out, he shows no respect and mercy to his opponents who do not have heavy hands.

Just another step up the ladder.
I don't think they will give Casimero a good fight just yet. He may be ready but due to his past, he may need to work harder to fight higher seeds of boxers in his weight class.
Finish this quickly, and show them his strength because he cannot wait long anymore.
At 34 years old, time is running out for him. 2 fights a year is what he needed to be a title contender again. Now, he is up against a 27-year-old Fillipus Nghitumbwa and if Casimero can show the difference in strength and experience then he might be recognized again to be matched with a higher seed.

For the record though, there are a lot of good boxers from Namibia who have held either the bantamweight or super bantamweight and I think there is the weight class that they focus or at least any other South African country as it's a perfect fight for their height and weight. And again, to be fair, he held the WBO Global belt, but it's not the normal belts that champions hold in their organizations. We may compare it to like regional titles, like Asia Pacific or intercontinental Pacific, so it's a secondary belt from this (corrupt) organizations.

Quote from: Yogee on March 27, 2023, 10:19:58 AM

I was wondering how even got the fight in the beginning but I can understand now having taken a second look at his number of knockouts. May be too early for him but still a great opportunity. This should be a good match up for boxing purists who doesn't bet or watch based on names only. I'm taking my chances on the bout not reaching the last round. Just have to wait for the best odds.

And probably why he is chosen is that it's the WBO after all, and Casimero was used to be their title in the bantamweight division. Who knows after this, he might be inching closer for another title shot from WBO.

Just announced a few hours ago that Johnriel Casimero will be fighting against an unknown opponent (at least to many) and his name is Fillipus Nghitumbwa. Per below boxing record, his resume is not impressive so i think this will be a walk in the park for Quadro Alas.

This fight may not be so exciting to some users here but for us coming from the PH, Quadro Alas fighting in his country is a big thing as we seldom see him fight in the PH when he become a world champion.

Nghitumbwa for his part has not fought on foreign land and he got not much experience with only 13 fights but still hoping that he could give Casimero a competitive fight.

What do you guys think of this fight?

If we do look on Boxrec record on Casimero and this unknown fighter then you could really see the wide gap when it comes to experience but if we do look up with that 13 fights of this challenger then
we could see that he has that huge KO percentage which it isnt something that Casimero should really be that confident on taking up shots with this dude. Im aint saying that he's in danger but
we know that upsets could really happen on boxing sports too which it wont really be that just that ideal nor right on taking up opponents lightly because you dont know
on where that lucky punch would set in.

All boxers which have been beaten by Nghitumbwa are weak, so the KO record doesn't convince me anything. This should be a warm up for Casimero and he should win via KO in this fight, not sure about the odds, but we might see other betting option when the fight get closer.

But this does not mean that Nghitumbawa punches are weak too. Making 11 of his 13 opponents kiss the canvas means the boxer has a deadly punching power. So we should not underestimate the guy because his opponent is unknown. Isn't Manny Pacquiao a not well-known boxer before he fights Ledwaba?

If Casimero lose in this fight, well it's better for him to retire Cheesy

even though he's still 34 years old, he can fight at least for the next 2-3 years.

Lol, retiring is a bit harsh, maybe reflect on his actions and trainings. He is still capable at his age and still at his prime .
