WBO Bantamweight World Champion John Riel Casimero and challenger Duke Micah previewed the CHARLO DOUBLEHEADER at final press conference for their fight on Saturday, September 26 live on SHOWTIME PPV (7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT), in an event presented by Premier Boxing Champions.
CASIMERO:
“This is my first time on SHOWTIME so I want to give everyone watching an impressive performance. I’ll go for the knockout.
“This is a big opportunity show the world who I am. I promise I will do my best this fight. I am extremely ready to give it my all.
“My opponent is a mature boxer with good experience. But I’m going to be too strong for him. I believe I’m the best at 118-pounds.”
DUKE MICAH:
“This fight will be like Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali.”
“I have to stick to my game plan. I expect my opponent to box and move. I’ve prepared for a couple attacks that I think he will use. I’ve never been more ready for a fight than I am for this one.
“Casimero is a good boxer, but I’m a different fighter than I’ve been in the past. I’ve improved my game so much working with Andre Rozier. The fans will see it on Saturday night, and they will become instant fans of my electrifying style.”
The event is presented by Premier Boxing Champions and promoted by Lions Only Promotions and TGB Promotions.
