Chris Mannix: Why Was Harrison/Charlo II in Canada
Collapse

What made him get more exposed in this fight opposed to Vanes, Trout, Jackson or the first Harrison fights? Since when was Charlo this great unbeatable fighter? He didn't look awful at all. I'm just not sure what some were expecting here? Harrison got more shine coming up for a reason and was the more decorated amateur and the superior boxer. This is why before the first fight where most thought it would be a blowout, I said it was 60/40 Charlo since Harrison has a lot of advantages. Charlo though has the better chin, and doesn't gas out or have late mental lapses like Harrison.Comment

I've been wondering that myself. For some reason both of the brothers are treated that way.What made him get more exposed in this fight opposed to Vanes, Trout, Jackson or the first Harrison fights?

Obviously they are not, especially Jermell. But I don't think he got exposed at all vs Harrison. The fight pretty much went one of the two ways it could have gone. Either Harrison would be sharper and able to out box Charlo or that Charlo would be able to catch him and stop him. The latter happened even though Charlo won his fair share of rounds.
Harrison will be able to hang with anyone in the division when it comes to his boxing ability.Comment

If I was a betting man I'd be putting my money on this explanation, bit of overzealous editing, specially given that it's now been changed back to Cali in the article.Comment
