[00:04:31]>> [cheering] >> Nery kasi madalas din siyang open >> [music] >> at 'yan ang gustong-gusto ni Casimero.

[00:04:45]sa pag-atake.

[00:04:48]explosiveness counterpunching ni Alas.

[00:04:51]na gagamitin niya laban niya kay Solani Tete.

[00:04:56]nakita natin ang isa sa pinaka-disiplinado pinaka-mapanganib [music] na bersyon ni Casimero.

[00:05:02]calmado pero explosive may pressure, may timing at napakatalino ng pagpili ng counter [music] shots. At kung ganoong klase ng Casimero ang kay Luis Nery napakalaki ng posibilidad na matalo niya ang Mexican warrior. Pero bago natin tapusin ang video ito balikan natin ang isa sa mga Mexicanong nakalaban [music] ni Cuadro Alas. Parang si Luis Nery din ito mga brad. Sugod din ang sugod. Ang Mexicanong ito ay walang iba kundi si Cesar Ramirez. So hindi ko na papahabain pa mga brad. Umpisahan na agad natin. So heto na round one.

[00:05:34]>> Ramirez [music] is a very wiry long-limbed fighter.

[00:05:38]>> He likes his right hand in previous fights against Dito.

[00:05:42]>> But Casimero is a very, very aggressive fighter as you see. He's leading off with a left [music] hand. But his right hand is behind the right straight or a right hook. Or seeing his height advantage there with a jab early on.

[00:05:54]>> But >> [music] >> Casimero wanting to fight.

[00:05:57]>> But you also see him opening him up >> for a possible [music] counter overhand spot in the 122 pound division. His last three fights I believe he's come down to challenge Casimero here in the 118 [music] pound division.

[00:06:10]>> He's moving in looking to unload both of power from both hands.

[00:06:15]>> See as we get into the last [music] minute of this first round.

[00:06:22]>> But right now Rungvisai now missing with a shot. He looks very tentative at this stage. [music] We're talking of Ramirez.

[00:06:30]>> And of course Cuadras, the Filipino trained alongside Manny Pacquiao in Los Angeles and in Las Vegas. Did some training.

[00:06:41]Oh yeah, very tentative Ramirez. Little bit unsure of himself at this point.

[00:06:46]>> Right hand scored there by >> He has 18 knockouts [music] and you can see >> that long reach Diana a bit of a problem here for Casimero especially if I put a lot of pressure on Ramirez to fight the tempo of Casimero.

[00:07:02]>> I think at this point [music] to you know to solidify his >> cast here among our judges.

[00:07:08]>> Yes.

[00:07:12]So [music] Casimero was formerly the light flyweight title from 2012 to 2014 which he vacated to move up.

[00:07:22]Now hoping to get a tanning on track >> so that his with his reflexes [music] are able to react very quickly to whatever opportunity he said it >> Mexicans are very wily type of fighter.

[00:07:37]>> But you know we're we're seeing very little offense from [music] Ramirez.

[00:07:41]>> True.

[00:07:43]>> fights actually went the [music] 12 round before he scored a knockout. And so, this guy is used to going the distance. [music] He's a survivor.

[00:07:54]>> Missing on [music] the right. Still missing.

[00:08:00]>> There's a slick spot there in the And that's also playing a major role in making this promotion happen.

[00:08:10]>> Yes.

[00:08:11]>> Promotions here, Sean Gibbons.

[00:08:15]>> Hello to all of you viewers from around the world. Also, hello to Mrs. Jinkee Pacquiao, who I hear is watching with good friend Roy Bacalso. And also to my good friend Anthony Lentino.

[00:08:29]>> Nice overhand right scored there by Ramirez. And Casimero, you get the feeling that he wants to turn this into a brawl. He feels comfortable inside the ring. I don't think Casimero is comfortable fighting from a distance. He needs to bounce. That's Casimero's style.

[00:08:43]>> Yep. And he wants to win impressively in front of his countrymen. [music] >> Now, he's measuring his opponent.

[00:08:50]>> [cheering] >> He's moving in, but he's got to be careful. Ramirez looking to counter.

[00:08:57]>> Quick movements there from Casimero.

[00:08:59]>> come in. So, when he does, he's going to be prepared to throw that right.

[00:09:06]It just be [music] one shot. It just can't be the right hand. That time >> Oh, that was that was a knockdown. That was >> hand.

[00:09:14]Beautiful left hand.

[00:09:15]>> Nice counter there. Perfectly timed.

[00:09:19]And Ramirez says, Sometimes when you when you get hit in a certain spot, you need to you [music] can't help yourself. You just go down, as we saw.

[00:09:28]Now, Casimero looking >> I thought it was an excellent faint by Casimero. Ramirez thought the right hand was coming, and so did we. All of a sudden, he threw that left hand and catching Ramirez off guard, putting him down on the canvas for the first knockdown in the fight.

[00:09:45]>> Beautiful variation from the Filipino, Casimero.

[00:09:55]Last 27 seconds left in round three.

[00:09:58][music] >> And you also like the patience of Casimero.

[00:10:02]>> Yes.

[00:10:02]>> He's not getting [music] careless. He's got knockdown here, but he's not rushing things. He's looking for the right opening, the right If it doesn't happen, he'll wait another round.

[00:10:12]>> So happy to see Casimero [music] focused and really waiting for the right >> [cheering] >> And that loss >> Loss was in 2016, 3 years ago, in a decision loss to Ryan Burnett in England.

[00:10:33]Ramirez thinking that he needs to be more offense-minded now. He's throwing that left hand, the left jab.

[00:10:44]>> Confident Casimero, but as you said, not rushing, taking his time.

[00:10:51]>> But Casimero is not throwing any jabs.

[00:10:52]He's looking for a big punch. He's looking for the killer blow.

[00:10:56]>> Yeah.

[00:11:03]>> Ramirez shows some rhythm here.

[00:11:06]He's boxing Casimero.

[00:11:08]But Casimero wants to [music] punch, not box. He wants to throw the big hands.

[00:11:15]>> Mexican corner, you know, Mexicans [music] to be You want to get back in this round after suffering a knockdown in round three.

[00:11:25]>> [music] >> Ramirez looks at his corner.

[00:11:45]He has uh two children all back in Mexico.

[00:11:52]He said they're his [music] biggest inspiration as he tries to land some shots here. [music] >> Not much of activity on the part of Casimero in this round. Yeah.

[00:12:03]>> Surprising.

[00:12:04]>> pacing [music] himself. Yeah.

[00:12:06]We're in for the long haul. And you know that Casimero he also likes to go distance. Last fight it took him 12 rounds to take a to take [music] care of Ricardo Espinosa to win the interim WBO bantamweight championship.

[00:12:32]Fighters seem to be just pawing at each other.

[00:12:34]Ramirez moving forward. And there's Casimero now with uh 25 seconds left in this round.

[00:12:43]>> Well, you know this round is up for grabs.

[00:12:45]>> Yep.

[00:12:47]>> Whoever is able to throw more punches here towards the end can get this round.

[00:12:56]>> Actually, this is a good round for Ramirez.

[00:12:57]>> Yes.

[00:12:58]>> I will give him bouncing back from a knockdown in the previous round.

[00:13:05]>> But Casimero somewhat silent in that round, Kiko.

[00:13:08]>> Yes, of Johnriel Casimero he sort of took the previous round off.

[00:13:13]>> Yeah.

[00:13:15]>> He coasted in round number four. Now in round number five, there's a slip.

[00:13:20]There's a slip.

[00:13:22]Oh, they call it a knockdown.

[00:13:24]>> They call it a knockdown.

[00:13:25]>> Ramirez is not happy with that call.

[00:13:29]>> Oh, they call a knockdown.

[00:13:30]Referee Ramon Peña must have seen a [music] punch. We didn't see it. We didn't see the punch.

[00:13:37]But he must have seen it very clearly because he was very [music] decisive in making that call. He called a knockdown.

[00:13:45]Ramirez now down twice in this fight.

[00:13:47]>> [music] >> Let's see what Casimero does from here on.

[00:14:36]>> Yeah, you would think that Casimero would be a little bit more aggressive after Right punch blocked. There's a double jab there. Ramirez gets through.

[00:14:52]Casimero backing up.

[00:14:56]>> Now you see the height difference between the two.

[00:14:59]Clearly the much taller fighter is Ramirez.

[00:15:02]>> Ramirez using his reach.

[00:15:09]>> Ramirez showing a little more confidence.

[00:15:11]>> Well, he needs to.

[00:15:12]>> Yeah, he did go down. He did go down early in this round.

[00:24:13]>> [cheering] >> Got the mouthpiece off again.

[00:24:16]>> He needs to get a warning from the referee. But if a punch dislodges a mouthpiece just like what happened, no warning.

[00:24:24]>> Strong body shot there.

[00:24:26]>> Now maybe that's what Casimero needs to do. Attack the body.

[00:24:48]>> Oh boy.

[00:24:49]>> By John Riel Casimero.

[00:24:50]>> He seems to want to finish the fight in this round. Can he do it?

[00:24:57]>> But he's fighting back.

[00:24:59]When he's taking those shots to the midsection, he's grimacing in pain.

[00:25:36]Casimero just itching [music] to launch here.

[00:25:41]Looking for the opening. Nueras has little left.

[00:25:44]>> [music] >> But, for Casimero, one shot to the midsection. That's what he's looking for.

[00:25:49]A shot to the side of the body.

[00:25:51]>> [music] >> But, no mistake about it. Oh, down. He's down. He's down.

[00:25:58]And I think he's out.
