To the boxing experts here, is it possible that Casimero challenges Butler? So the tide will turn and he's now the one that will challenge the champion. And if that happens, is the camp of Butler obliged to say yes, or can reject that?
Not a boxing expert but I think Casimero won't challenge Butler's WBO bantamweight belt as the weight issue/problem really persist on him. Best next move for him right now is to find a good manager or make peace with Sean Gibbons so he can go back to MP Promotion and then talk about what would be the best for his career but definitely, a move up in weight is inevitable.
IMHO, this whole thing is a setup, payback time for Probellum for that Dubai incident, don't know if they lose some money on that promotion but their integrity was somewhat questioned on that incident.
I definitely agree! I don't know either why Casimero have chose to sign under Probellum's roof as he already knew that Butler was already there first and I've read some rumor way back that this will be a disadvantage for Casimero. Nevertheless, it's really not best for him to join his opponent in the same roof. His only choice now is to move another heavier division where his weight won't be a big problem and test his capabilities there as he don't have anything to lose now.
It was actually Donaire who help Casimero to sign under the banner of Probellum.

So does it mean that Donaire has also some intentions behind luring Casimero out of MP and joining him and Butler in the same roof?
But in any case that he has a hard time making the bantamweight then it's better for him to move up.
It's really unfortunate to Casimero because he did faced many complications towards this supposed fight against Butler but for the 2nd time he still didn't make it and worse he has been stripped of his belt.
