He deserves credit just seen on Twitter then he's fighting for Ibf world title considering he's only 7-0 some balls ! Would that be quickest for a british fighter if he won?

Very talented is Edwards but this seems all too soon. I fancy Casimero by stoppage but hope I'm wrong and Edwards pulls it off.

Casimero by stoppage will probably be a better bet than Golovkin by stoppage

Why on earth are the they throwing Chuck in like this? It's a terrible match at this stage of his career.

Only seen Casimero in the second Ruenroeng fight and he looked a very good body puncher.

Also beat ex light fly champ Pedro Guevara a few years ago.

He looks to have good experience going off his record be interesting how the bookies see this.

He's fighting Saturday too so hopefully will be 8-0 going into it

Beat Lazarte in Argentina...and almost got killed in the ensuing riot...disgusting scenes in that one

I havent watched much of Edwards. Does he strike anyone as a special talent who, despite having just 7 bout against comparitevly horrid opposition, can beat a world clsss fighter with much more power and expierence, not to mention a title win in perhaps the most hostile enemy territory we've seen over the last few years?

He is talented. Very well thought of in Scotland but a complete novice in terms of pro experience. I'm a bit sickened by this match up.

Ya, I can definitely understand why you see it that way.

Anyone think Edwards will do it?

Edwards has no chance at all! He should be fighting Andrew Selby. Hearn criticized Khan for not fighting Brook saying he should fight his domestic rival but then does this....

bookies odds will be interesting with a bit of luck they will get it completely wrong and make edwards a big favourite

Are you getting him confused with Charlie Flynn?

Paddy Power have the odds as -
Edwards 5/4, Casimero 8/13 the draw 20.

Probably too soon for Edwards but it's good to see a young fighter taking a risk. I hope it works out for him.

I've seen a few of Flynns pro fights and haven't been that impressed tbh. Joe Ham looks pretty good.

5/4 isn't much of a return on a win that unlikely.

Edwards fought last nite against Jose Aguilar who was on a 10 fight loosing streak and got the win but not by stoppage. Did anyone see it? Did he look world class & ready for Casimero ?
