Surprised they didn't give this one to Ennis also.

I hope so , and I hope that he wins finally.

He is the Allan Green of the modern 154lb division, I liked both guys and what they bring to the table but....that chin though

Damn, bruh. Mell ain't do good at 168, but he has been a highlight reel king at 154. Why y'all hate him so much? LOL... I'm sort of neutral on that fight, but if Charlo can maintain his prime for a while longer, I would still live to see him being champ at 154. Then other guys can contender amongst each other when he moves to 160.

2 down, 2 to go...
almost as if it were all preplanned!?

It's all down hill from here. Once you get a taste of a nice big pay day it's hard to get up for a much lesser pay. Now I know Jermell has a good following, he is an exciting fighter, but how much can he possibly make fighting this Bakhram, After a loss at 33 years old?

Enjoy your money Mr. Charlo, maybe a fight against Crawford could get him some nice millions or a fight against Tszyu.

Should just move up and fight his bro

I think this is something ALL of us saw coming. Either Jermell would vacate because the fight makes no money and/or he's going on hiatus, or IBF would strip him. Hopefully the IBF quickly orders Murtazaliev vs. whoever decides to fight him.

Dint Charlo say in an interview he would come back to whoop Crawford's azz after taking care of Canelo

Unfortunately these Eastern block fighters tend to be the definition of bad risk/reward ratio. They’re all killers, but with personalities of a doorknob, no English, and names we can’t pronounce.
