  • Comments Thread For: Charlo Fueled By Vengeance, Eager To Put Hands on Harrison

    By Lyle Fitzsimmons - A year's time has made quite a difference for Jermell Charlo. In December of 2018, while preparing for a title defense against Tony Harrison, the then-incumbent WBC 154-pound champion barely acknowledged his foe during a full-length interview...And when he did, he wasn't exactly showering the challenger then ranked fifth...

    Charlo has a loss, popped his cherry. Saying he can beat Hurd and actually beating him are two different things.

      Charlo really seem up for this fight, an emotional boxer can be a dangerous boxer.

          I think Charlo is doing this for the media but if not then Harrison was living rent free in Charlo's head.

            Too nervous

            Charlo was too nervous in the first fight and tried too hard for the knock out. If he stays calm and adds calculated pressure, he can wear down, break down and stop Harrison in 9 rounds

              This is boxing after all, an unregulated sport. If you dont want someone with a belt, or simply to win, you can make that happen, if it goes to the cards

              Some shadowy figure didnt want Jermell judged the winner of that fight and retaining his title. That's the only rational explanation for all three judges rendering the same laughable result. It's usually one that's blind.

              Professional trainers like Goosen, HOF pros like Lennox and Mansini are like Harrison is not doing anything...not nearly enough to win a title fight.

              There was only ONE round that I could clearly give to Harrison, the 5th. He landed a good right that got Jermell off balance. Jermell responded with a chopping blow later in the round. Heres the thing...Harrison's punch only got Jermell's attention. Harrison reacted to Jermell's punch like he got hit with a baseball bat . Okay, but, let's still give Harrison that round! He's still a football field away from doing enough to win a title! Not with that frightened, timid performance!

              The judges su****iously didnt see it that way, and scored the fight as if Harrison was ALREADY the champion, and Jermell is the pursuing challenger!

              That's why we're back here Saturday! Heres the thing though...camp Harrison wants to prove that they deserve the belt? By not fighting with his tail in between his legs this time? He has NO INCENTIVE to do so!

              As champion this time, and without an...influenced...group of judges, all he has to do is fight the same gutless fight and he retains! He doesnt NEED bad, possibly corrupt judging to win this time! I guarantee you, even after Harrison's toughguy act at the press conferences, that he's still running to a corner and covering up for dear life, if Jermell even throws a feint !!

              The pressure is on Jermell to chase this man down and knock him out before this goes to the judging!

                Or rather than some shadowy figure pulling the strings like a marionette, the judges saw the fight entirely differently than you did. I thought it was close, I had Charlo but didn't argue with the result. The fact that you referenced PBC shills Lennox Lewis, Ray Mancini and Dan Goosen is embarrassing. I've seen North Korean TV broadcasts less biased than those 3.

                Anyway, Charlo should win this one and he should stop Tony; he's the more rugged and violent fighter and has more ways to win.

                Harrison can box well and crack hard but he has to fight measured because he does gas late and he can get clipped and stopped.

                I will say Charlo TKO7.

                  In the first fight, if Charlo could have been more dominant, then he would have been. The problem is, he was getting countered and out jabbed, which handcuffed him majority of the fight. I still thought he won 7 rounds. But he wasn’t himself that fight and I give the credit to Harrison for that. Harrison’s height and reach gave him problems and it will again in this fight. I do see Charlo winning the rematch but it won’t be pretty. Harrison simply has a style along with that height and reach that will always give Charlo problems in the ring. Charlo will once again run into the same issues and can’t get overly aggressive because he can get clipped rushing in. Harrison has pop on his punches.

                    Re

                    The judges of the first fight set a REALLY bad precedent for what it takes to win a belt!

                    This is not to say that you have to beat the hell out of someone! Theres three ways to win a belt: knock the guy out (KO TKO), dish out a brutal beating over 12 rounds, or option three, a thorough boxing lesson!

                    Harrison did NEITHER! A staring contest with the champion for entire rounds, and avoiding any forward engagement is not a boxing lesson, that's a YELLOW streak! Take your UD LOSS, and have a nice day!

                    The precedent you are setting is some sleep inducing, overly safety conscious snooze fests, as the bar has been LOWERED, as to how much bravery is required to won a belt!

                    The guy up there casting doubt on corrupt judging?! Why do you think they're back here Saturday?! It was not only the FOX hosts, it was outrage THROUGHOUT the boxing world !! Harrison's conscience couldnt live with the perception that he didnt earn that belt, it was GIFTED to him!

                    I'm not some bloodthirsty fan that just wants to see violence! But you have to do ENOUGH! If Tyson Fury didnt suffer those two knockdowns against Wilder-the second of which he was arguably counted out-he wins that belt! He stood his ground, and was delivering a beautiful boxing lesson to a ferocious one-punch KO artist! There wasnt much violence, just good boxing, in the Fury-Wlad fight! Harrison? He got KTFO twice previously, thats in his head, and he scared to death !! How are you then awarded...man...
