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

[markther]

I have to admit, I’m not sure if these guys really hate each other or if it’s all the circumstances surrounding the rematch but I am really excited to see this fight on Saturday. It’s must see TV. I know
Charlo better have controlled aggression because Harrison can crack a little bit, 21 knockouts in 28 wins, 75%. By comparison, Charlo has 16 knockouts in 32 wins, only 50%.

But going back to 2015, 5 years, Charlo has had 5 knockouts in 7 wins which is 71%. Only 3 fighters went the distance with him overall in the past 5 years, Tony Harrison, Austin Trout, & Vanes Martirosyan. So I believe with all the animosity in this rematch, it won’t go 12 rds.

Harrison consistently beat him to the punch the last fight and had him swinging and missing.

Charlo came on late but even I that 12th ed Harrison bit down and fired some hard **** to keep Charlo at bay.

If Harrison stays as sharp as he did the last fight I don't see Charlo being able to land his big punches...

Unless Charlo is in outstanding shape and manages to wear Harrison down and get him late.

Just my $.02

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!

Some good points here .....


That's the winning formula GBP uses for all its cash-cow fights that goes to the cards. One Judge calls the fight a "Draw" all the time. So all that is needed after that is for another judge to give a single point victory and GBP fighter's win every time.

Tony is ****ing hilarious. That presser was great


I hope he wins. He is in Charlos head for sure.

He must have forgot;

Tony has hands too! If Tony puts combinations together and is in top condition this kid will get an old fashioned ass whupping. Charlo is a bigger puncher but don’t get it twisted Tony can punch his dam self and has fast hands and feet plus his ring IQ is a bit better. If Tony don’t fall apart from being hit and doesn’t tire puts more punches together than 1st fight, I can’t see Charlo doing anything but calling his brother for help!

I’m just saying

Still didn’t see Tony Harrison win the first fight but... whatever it was close. Charlo looks angry... that’s not good. Tony is in his head big time.

He was swinging for the fences in the first fight leaving himself wide open for counters. He needs to get his finesse game back on track and just box to win rounds. Lull Harrison to sleep with some salt and pepper and then surprise him with the power.

Always throwing hard means the competition is always bracing for it. It also wears a fighter out early. Hope Charlo figures this out before fight night.

jermell is going to hurt t'f out of Harrison

[El_Mero]

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

Can also be to their detriment.

I differ. Angry is good for Charlo; look at all the fighters he has had animosity for versus those he hasn't. You have Hatley, Lubin, Cota (an innocent bystander) and Jackson on one end and Harrison, Trout and Vanes on the other. An emotional Charlo is a Charlo at his best. Some people are better in that world, and Charlo is one of them.

Harrison on the other hand is not,and right now he is just as emotional as Charlo it just shows differently. He been shaking on stage, talking about the man's entourage, saying Charlo ain't no killer like anyone but Harrison thinks he is and he pulled out the last fight. Harrison actions not adding up to me, but we'll see.

Yeah, can also be reckless.
