Comments Thread For: Charlo To Australian TV Reporter: F--- You & Tim Kazoo! Different Heat Here In America

[Nightfall]

Charlo on his period again i can't stand this guys attitude, he's a good fighter and fair play for winning but i could never be a fan of the way he acts.

why is that ? they talk **** about him and he can't fire back? F@ck you idiot

The logical career move would be for Charlo to vacate and chase titles at 160 whilst the other brother moves up to 168. However, he still makes 154 easily and there's good fights available at 154, like fundora, so maybe he just stays there?

F@ck you too buddy, all this guy does is talk **** he's an emotional woman in a mans body never seen anybody as insecure as this guy. Harrison had it right when he was saying his bigger brother must of been bullying him. I gave the guy props for his fighting skills i just don't like his personality which i'm entitled to.

I find it funny these American boxers acting like its still the 80s or 90s when the Americans were basically the only real pros (and got away with extensive doping)

"different heat in America"

Yeah sure Charlo, look you probably beat Tszyu right now just based on huge experience gap but I wouldn't even 100% guarentee that tbh.

Charlo is a quality fighter but he's real hard to take to outside of the ring. Always angry and aggressive, real chip on his shoulder.

A couple of people have responded to my comment about Tszyu having a good chance, and I’ll just say that I respectfully think you’re making too much of a knockdown and bad scorecards against Gausha. It was a flash knockdown where he wasn’t hurt, and Tszyu battered Gausha for the rest of the fight (despite some some scorecards having it competitive). Gausha is a good fighter, who I suspect would lose the fight but still win 2-3 rounds against Charlo.

Another point, Tszyo does have the right style for Charlo. Charlo just had a hell of a fight against Castano, a pressure fighter.

Charlo just said in that press conference, that he won’t be taking the fight, and had an emotional reaction where he berated that reporter (who btw, watch the video, was not disrespectful). Ok friends, this is boxing, is “it would be too easy” ever a real reason for not taking a fight? Especially when it’s a mandatory and would be a money maker? The smartest boxing people are the fighters and trainers themselves, and I think Charlo knows that it’s a high risk scenario.

To clarify my position, I wouldn’t necessarily pick Tszyu, but I have the fight as a 50-50.

I really respect Jermell as a fighter but he is a total nightmare outside. Unmarketable. He is way to fearsome and intimidating to be popular with regular people. But that's just his personality - I do find it entertaining up to a point. I bet after he retires he will be one of these fighters you keep hearing about for getting in trouble.

An afterthought though: spare a thought for his entourage who have to put up with him all day long on long bus rides etc.

Why do they act like this, though? One minute, "everybody's against us" and the next second, they're raving on about how great America is...or American fighters...though they bleat on about how "racist" this country is. I get it...they have to sell tickets (before, during, and after the fight) but at what cost?

Why the outbursts? The networks seem to be treating them well, so what's the issue? I love these guys in the ring but sometimes....sometimes, the outbursts and psychobabble can be a lot to take in as a fan.

And I'm sick of this one last thing and SOMEBODY needs to say something....why aren't people addressing their substance abuse issues? It's clear and apparent...Jermall has been on a drunken course of endless yelling, slurring, cussing and talking **** to any and every body (e.g., fighter, fans of other fighters, reporters) for the past couple of weeks. Just reckless. And Spence STILL walks around drunk but nobody says anything.

A lot of these guys are under the influence of something, yet, they do interviews like nothing is going on. Nobody questions this?

Charlo has zero class ....

It really was a classless response to a reporter who was there just doing his job. It wasn't like those were the sentiments of the reporter. Too bad because he carried himself well in the post fight interview with Jim Grey but looks like it was short lived.

Mell beats the breaks off of Tim though....

[VislorTurlough]

Charlo, like 90% of these bros, needs media training. It’s not the only reason fighters rarely get mainstream looks, but classless rants like this guarantee minimal endorsements. So he’s only screwing himself out of more $ by answering these questions like a jackass. Could have easily answered like “you see his last fight? Not close to ready. Gotta earn it. Next”.
