      Re

      The Harrison story is a nice one...but I'm sorry but...in a robbery, you have to root for the VICTIM in the rematch.

      That was one the biggest robberies of the year, maybe of all time. No way all three judges are gonna be that blind.

      It was obviously political...of the Charlo brothers Jermell in particular is not a boy scout . Treats his opponents with disdain, several out of the ring confrontations...I thought it was funny ! He's entertaining!

      And, you know...the sanctioning bodies probably weren't amused...and the opportunity came up, where, here's a challenger who has a better image...let's put it on him...

      He didnt get knocked down, fought a safety conscious fight...the time is right, to get that belt off Jermell...

      Harrison was the beneficiary, a bit player, but unfortunately, he's gotta get the stuffing beat out of him, to right that wrong.

      They dont want the belt on Jermell, that's fine...put him in the ring with someone who will legitimately beat him. You dont rob the guy in plain sight.

          That segment of the presser where Harrison was calling Charlo a "cornball" was hilarious

              Great Press Conference! Tony Harrison destroyed Jermell verbally though

              Made me more excited about this rematch

                A rematch for a title you just lost (most said by robbery) is definitely not a crossroads fight.

                  ALL THREE...the wrong decision...ALL THREE...as long as I've been watching fights, that almost never happens, in a fight with an obvious winner!

                  There can be ONE idiot on the panel, at the most a second one. 99% of the time, it's just ONE. I'm not talking about a 50-50 fought bout. I'm talking one in which one boxer, WHO IS THE CHAMPION, BY THE WAY...pummeled another timid one !

                  An important person didnt want Jermell as champion!

                    Agreed, this is because if you lose a fight nowadays you’re basically given up on and perceived as a bum.
                    Imagine what they would think about fighters like glen johnson lol
                    Oh he was just a bum, lost a bunch of times

                    They think boxing is all about pretty padded records and the “0”

                      I dunno, fight was close. I thought Charlo did barely just enough for the win but didn't think it was a robbery. Harrison was doing some nuanced stuff in there that maybe not everyone appreciates.

                      The fact that the A-side lost and all 3 judges scored it for the same guy tells me that watching it ringside was alot different to watching it televised.

                      Fights that I've seen live feel different then when I've gone back and watched the televised version. I have a feeling this one will be a little more explosive; Harrison can look fragile in there but he's skilled and according to his opponents he cracks pretty hard.
