Where is that fight scheduled to take place at? Obviously not possible if in the UK. Too late of a notice.

That's in Manchester on the same day, N'Dam is a road warrior, if they offered him more money I wouldn't be shocked to see him take the Charlo fight instead

Comments Thread For: Monroe's VADA Test Threatens Charlo Fight, Korobov Could Step In

NEW YORK The Jermall Charlo-Willie Monroe Jr. fight is in jeopardy. WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman revealed through his Twitter account late Saturday afternoon that the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association has alerted the WBC of an adverse finding in one of Monroe's pre-fight performance-enhancing drug tests. Monroe is scheduled to challenge Charlo for Charlo's WBC interim middleweight title December 22 in the main event of an 11-fight card at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

Charlo misses test them Monroe comes up positive.

Oh wow, I like that idea. Wish they contact GBP and try to get that fight set up.

Korobov did get added to this card a few weeks ago. Maybe they knew this was a possibility? That's actually a very solid late notice addition. And IIRC, Korobov was talking some smack to Charlo on twitter after the WMJ fight was announced.

Isn't Korobov fighting in a pbc undercard in early January? Be good if he could come in as a replacement?

[Clegg]

That's a better fight. He's past prime but is a better technican, better puncher than Monroe.

If he's prepped and ready to go, that's a better fight than Slick Willie - only thing is Matvey's inactivity and lack of quality opponents since Lee makes it difficult to gauge where he's at. Ain't a dude I'd be wanting to take on as a late replacement if I was managing Jermall though.
