Tapales is trying to be like Casimero. The guy has some confidence to say to Inoue that he is his biggest nightmare. He can say anything he wants, but I'm hoping he'll back it up with his performance. I don't want to see a boxer who's no different from Inoue's past opponents, who were afraid to engage and fought just to survive.
The outcome of the fight doesn't benefit him. It ended in a DRAW, but it's not just the outcome that concerns us; it's how he handled the fight and how he appeared to gas out early. It's not a good sign for him, and I think Inoue could decline his challenge, saying he's not on his level.
looking at this fight and just as some people have already said, Casimero's performance was very low during the fight, it didn't even seem like he was seen as the favorite, the comments from people that I could read, it was as if most people looked at He's like a fighter who uses dirty methods to win the fight, he had a lower body posture, so he was in a position where he could easily headbutt his opponent, but I don't believe he did that out of malicious intent, it's probably a his fighting strategy. but this didn't go down very well with his image from now on, with this poor performance it will be difficult to attract the attention of other good fighters to fight against him
I had already commented on this elsewhere, that currently boxing is accompanied by marketing, when people create high expectations about a fighter and that fighter's fight draws a lot of attention and during the fight the guy doesn't perform well to the point of not meeting people's high expectations, then that fighter loses attention from people and other fighters. he will need to train a lot and try to fight against a very strong boxer and when he wins convincingly then he will attract the attention of other strong boxers
