Answer:

Antony has contempt for Casca and is insulting him.

Explanation:

According to vocabulary dictionary, "A cur is a dog that isn't very good — or is a mixed breed. ... When you use the word cur, you're talking about a dog that's either a mutt, very unattractive, aggressive, or all three. The word can also be used as an insult for a person, especially a despicable man."

Anthony's choice to use cur instead of dog to describe Casca implies his contempt and an intent to insult.
