    Harrison clearly won the first fight and will win again if Jermell fights the same way and let his emotions get the best of him. I hope they assign three good judges again and don't try to rob Harrison.

      Rooting for Harrison but I can almost guarantee if the fight is close again, charlo will get the nod and there will be no 3rd fight.

      It's funny Jermell gets an immediate shot to get back his title after losing a close fight, but Korobov who got clearly robbed against Jermall doesn't get a second chance. & Of course Jermall himself said he wasn't interested. Wonder which tomato can they'll feed him next

              Disagree with most of this statement bro, what makes PBC real is that a growing star can get robbed by the judges. Haven’t seen this happen outside of when Pacquiao lost to Bradley. And at the time Pac had contract trouble.

              Jermell WON that first fight against Harrison. Count the rounds. They should be outraged.

              Yes he gets the rematch, a champion losing a very close fight usually does. Besides didn’t Harrison say he could get the rematch immediately after the fight?

              However, I partially agree, Jermall looked more vulnerable of the two. Let’s call it a Caneloesque win. I thought it was close but would have given it if pushed to Korobov. I just thought he looked to be controlling the tempo until the late trouble. But a draw or close fight either way is fair. You know exactly how Canelo wins big fights and no one ever flips out as much...

              But what I will say is both Charlos need to find some new nuisances in their game. They fight like they are going to overpower everyone. Being athletic and angry does not win major fights. They could better understand the psychology behind the fight.

              - How do you make the fight look easy to the judges.
              - How do you use athleticm to discourage your opponent like Mayweather.
              - How do you use projected vulnerability to open up a tight defense.

              Jermell seemed to fight better when he was younger. Looks like he has fallen in love with his power also. GGG should have taken a Jermall fight instead of a Danny Jacobs. His name would have been more solid today if he had taken that calculated risk early. Jermall struggles with some of the same nuances he does. The kid doesn’t look as dominant at 160. Power is decent but not compared to GGG. He has to catch you off guard and hasn’t figured out how to do that consistently.

              But I believe Jermell has an opportunity to be better on the other side of this fight. If he tried to brut his way back he will lose. But if he goes back to knowing when to finesse a win he will be back at the top of one of the toughest divisions in boxing. He could even knock Harrison down a few times.

                  To summarise this. The Charlos are super talented but super un-intelligent.

                      If Charlo can not fight emotional and be focused on fight night he can win a decision, Harrison landed the cleaner shots and was the more relaxed boxer. But compu box had Charlo up, fight should of been a draw.
