CASIMERO FOCUSED ON RUENROENG REMATCH

PhilBoxing.com




John Riel ?Cuadro Alas? Casimero left for Manila last April 24 to beef up his training preparations for his upcoming rematch against the current IBF flyweight champion Amnat Ruenroeng of Thailand.

He is training at the Yraola Boxing Gym in Quezon City for his May 25 fight in Beijing, China.

Casimero spent his physical conditioning program in Baliangao, Misamis Occidental and spent some sparring sessions with the WBO Oriental Jr. Flyweight Champion, Jesse Espinas and PBF Featherweight Champion, Jessie Cris Rosales.

After spending several weeks in Baliangao training camp, he is now ready for serious and rigorous training in Manila with Jhun Agrabio.

It will be remembered that Casimero lost in his first fight with Ruenroeng which was held in Thailand. The fight was full of fouls and the referee was not able to control the fight. The Champion was warned by the referee Larry Dogget five times constant holding and wrestling Casimero to the canvas but no penalty was imposed.

After such a dirty, foul-filled fight, the promoters of Casimero, Sampson Boxing and Samson Gello-ani brought the case to the IBF and asked the governing body to retain Casimero of his number 1 position and still becomes the mandatory challenger of Ruenroeng. And true to his word, the IBF President Daryl Peoples granted the request and will now have the chance for a rematch with the Champion.

The fight will be held in Beijing, China at the IBF / USBA 33rd Annual Convention from May 23 to May 27 in collaboration with the IBF China who organized the boxing event to take place on May 25 that will be handled by Rejoy International.

?I am very happy that the rematch will be in a neutral ground in China. And with the presence of the IBF President and its officials, the fight will be exciting. I am hoping that the Champion, Ruenroeng will not adapt his foul tactics once again. This time I want a clean and real fight,? Casimero said.

During the press conference held last March 29th in Beijing, China, both the Champion and Casimero promised to give the boxing fans a clean fight.

IBF World Championship operations and promotions REJOY Group promises that this championship fight in Beijing, China can make a contribution to the sports and cultural exchanges between China, Thailand and Philippines. (PR)
