    Casimero just got a year suspension in Japan, so it's a moot point anyways. I honestly just want him to take a beating and then go away. He's a hypejob, IMO.

      Oh, not surprised. Japan is really strict about punishing not making weight. I just read a case where they permanently revoked a Japanese guy's boxing license recently, tho that was because he missed weight for the third time.

      Then again this point is anyone even going to bother to pick him up, especially a Japanese based promoter that would want to try to get him to fight in Japan knowing his antics? I doubt Masayuki Ito of Treasure Boxing who had a contract with him that just ended is going to reup with him at this point, I believe he lost a crap ton of money due on him.

        Wasn't he with Gibbons for a while? That guy is a POS. Birds of a feather, and all that. But if nobody picks him up, I'm not gonna be sad about it.

          ...Unless one possibility, after Takuma's loss Teiken/Top Rank agreed to bite the bullet and made a HUGE overpriced monetary offer to Nishida well above what he'll make the next few fights combined plus worth forgoing a chance at Nasukawa money.

          As for Bam, he probably is looking for winner of Martinez-Ioka after Guevara and Choco seems more likely to go for Takei.

          Nishida said he wanted to fight Junto on Monday.

            On Monday... *looks at calender*
            ...

            ...Yeah, Teiken changed their mind and decided to pony up real good money "for a mysterious reason" after Sunday. Hope it materializes, Nishida definitely is a money chaser but at the same time if that is all thats needed, with Takuma gone its the only other choice.
