Why aren't the Charlo bros fighting in Houston?

The real question is, why aren't they fighting anyone good?

Can�t say you�re ducked if you risk losing.

Because besides just the 2 Network Deals, PBC also have a Deal with Barclays which kinda flew under the radar.

The arena has struck a deal with Premier Boxing Champions to become its official East Coast home arena, giving Barclays Center exclusivity with the outfit in the New York region.

The deal will begin in December and calls for eight fight nights per year, though the number of years the deal runs was not disclosed nor were financial terms.

Why dig in your own pockets paying for Venues in Texas when they have a deal with Barclays

but I think they will get their fights in Texas eventually

Well for the Brother at MW, there really isn't anyone to fight right now. All the other top MWs are currently busy. For the brother at JMW, his next big fight is Hurd and i'm sure that happens Spring/Summer next year.

at 154, lara is fighting Williams, hurd is coming off injury, really in December who else could he fight that wouldn't give a sour taste? at 160 ggg isn't fighting until april and it wont be against charlo, Jacobs is fighting sat so that wont happen in December, Andrade just fought, BJS is on crack....maybe liam smith?

In your opinion who would be a good fight for both charlos in December?

That's a good question. Gary Russell got a fight in his hometown, so did Errol Spence. Why not the Charlo's?

@154, Kell Brook or how about the WBA Champ Castano? Also he said Munguia is to green but why not push for it, Munguia is green and I think he sucks regardless but itd be better than who hes fighting for sure.

@160, I can agree it is kinda rough pickings...

I don't care where they fight but these two tough talking, bragging lions should be fighting better opponents to prove they are as good as they claim to be. Hurd recently KOed Jermell's opponent. Monroe has been KOed by GGG and easily beaten by Saunders. Jermall fans say he is the best and everyone fears him but Monroe is not a legit top 10 middleweight and the other 2 middleweights he fought were not even top 20. Jacobs asked Jermall for a fight months ago and says he would love to fight Jermall next.

The Dec 22 date was always to be in Brooklyn. It was just a matter of who was to fight on the event.
