I think Casimero will have the edge here. Rigondeaux is somewhat on the decline is the last couple of years and I think Father Time is catching up with him. While Casimero is at his peak right now and obviously, the brawler and has knock out punch in both hands.
The only problem I see is that Rigondeaux is a defensive boxer, so it might frustrate Casimero if he can't hit a moving target and he might used a lot of energy chasing Rigondeaux around.

Casimero is on a disadvantage in terms of stance against a Southpaw Rigondeaux but Casimero has the age advantage against Rigondeaux plus Casimero is more experienced.

What do you think about this fight? I'm sure this is a great fight, who do you think will win? will Casimero continue his popularity after this fight?
This is a WBO bantamweight title fight, and two fighters have different styles, so it's hard to tell who will win.
As of now, there are no betting odds yet but I believe once the betting odds are out, one should not be a heavy favorite as it looks like a pretty fair fight.
