    They were asking the same thing before the first fight, and I still picked Tony. And I'm picking him for the rematch too.:deal:

    I just want to see what Jermell (and Jermall for that matter) would have to say if he lost again

    Tony is a very good fighter with shakey chin/stamina issues.

    Jermell is a boxer not a pressure fighter so Tony matches up very well with him stylistically..

    Jermell is probably a bit more predictable when he loads up on his shots, might make it easier for Tony + he is usually really calm and low tempo if he ups the pressure maybe he fades.

    I dunno really, I do think Charlo probably wins by KO but Tony winning again won't be a surprise.

    The build up has been pretty great tbh, enjoyed the back and forth, hopefully the fight delivers too.

    Imagine if Tony puts Charlo to sleep, ffs Tony can crack too!!

    Yes he will. Charlo will make him pay.

    What does he have to pay for? He beat him fairly and squarely. You don't actually think PBC were giving a gift to Harrison do you?

    I scored it for charlo but he did indeed win fairly the judges scored it for Harrison. I dont think they will be so kind this time but i dont think it will go to the cards. Harrison has been running his mouth for a guy with a shaky chin like his. For his sake he better be ready to back up his tough talk.

    As a long time Harrison fan, I'm fully backing him again this time. But it wouldn't shock me in the least if he got knocked the f out, which may be for the best, since I have a feeling they're going to rob him regardless. We don't need a third fight, and I'm sure you don't want that hanging over Charlo's head if they do.

    Boxing needs feuds like this. I agree with you, I think Charlo wins by KO but I'm rooting for Harrison.

    Both Charlo's are so over rated. We'll see May the LEGITIMATE best man win

    Nah, Harrison will be on his bike again. Charlo might receive a gift for the perceived injustice of the first fight even if he gets outboxed again in the rematch. Although Charlo could maybe KO Harrison but I think Harrison knows his whiskers are shaky so he isn't going to be getting into exchanges with Jermell IMO.

    Charlie's boy will lose again, and even worst this time around. This time Harrison will Charbroil the Charlie angel.

    Identical twin boxers should both be forced to weigh in the day before a fight even if only of one of them is fighting so that they can't pull the switcheroo come fight night like these Charlo twins have clearly been doing throughout their entire careers. If the late great Manny Steward was still alive there's no way he'd let them get away with their shenanigans on Saturday night against his boy Harrison. He was way too savvy for that.

    Wow that's quite a statement. Do you have any proof to back up such a claim?

    One of the biggest storylines in the buildup to the rematch is Tony's ankle injury that postponed the summer rematch. Jermell accused him of faking the injury several times because he wasn't ready to rematch Jermell yet. Tony Harrison seemed to shake off these claims and when asked he didn't explain how the injury occurred or even whether the ankle is 100% now.

    Does anyone know what happened to Tony's ankle. Did he injure it in training, and do you think it is fully healed now? If he is relying on his defensive skill, an injured ankle could affect his mobility in getting out of danger especially when facing a guy like Jermell that wants badly to KO him.
