    Im tipping that Tony Harrison will beat Jermell Charlo , Harrison is a very good boxer and had Jarrett Hurd in plenty
    of trouble in their IBF title fight last year before Hurd caught Harrison in rnd 9 with a crisp right hand .
    Jermell doesnt possess that same firepower as Hurd and Harrison can take the fight to Jermell with his height and reach advantage.
    Should be a good exciting contest ........

    Tony Harrison is a good fighter who deserves a title shot, Monroe is a journeyman, but who else was the larger Charlo going to fight?


    Deveryanchenko and Jacobs: Busy
    Canelo: Not interested at this time
    GGG: Not interested
    Andrade: Just went 12
    Saunders: Suspended
    Brant: Just fought
    Murata: Just lost
    N'Dam: Already lost to Lemieux and Murata.

    So who else should he fight?

    Those are your top guys. I would think it came down to Sulecki, Lenieux and Monroe. Sulecki is coming off a loss, I doubt Lemieux's people would take Charlo, so that's that.

    The "American-Level" is kinda silly and childish Bro. I believe we still have more world titlists than any other country, The Ukraine has two, and so does Russia, if you count Bivol who is not even Russian.

    Actually I take that back, russia has one if you count Bivol because Relikh is from Belarus.

    Willie Monroe is a skilled fighter,
    but I think Jermall pressures
    and stops him.

    As a big fan of the Charlos,
    the Tony Harrison fight really
    worries me for Jermell, Harrison
    is really good, and Jermell has
    to bring his A game to beat
    him. Could be a close 12
    Round decision for either
    fighter.

    Such an uninspiring card (sigh).

    These aren't boys, they're not prospects anymore. We're dealing with 28yr old men in their prime.

    To date their best wins were Austin Trout. Canelo took out prime Trout at 21yrs old for fuksake.

    Utter waste of time.

    He was alright for GGG and BJS to fight, Two champions, why not Charlo?

    Because both GGG and BJS have already proven themselves. Who has Charlo fought at 160?

    How had they proven themselves? They hadn't fought anybody and BJS still ain't fought nobody.

    Did you criticize BJS for fighting Monroe? One of his toughest fights to date?

    BJS is a cretin who has wasted a lot of his prime, but he's fought people at 160 where as Charlo has done nothing.

    I like the Harrison fight a lot, however not the other one.
    Sulecki, Lemieux are available, how about Lara?

    Lara vs Jermall is a good fight.
