Via Robert Segal: WBC middleweight champion Jermall Charlo says he wants to fight injured WBO champion Demetrius Andrade next.
Charlo (32-0, 22 KOs) was said to have had a chance against Andrade a few years ago when he was briefly promoted by Eddie Hearn, but he is said to have turned down $7 million for the match. fight.
So why is Charlo now suddenly expressing his desire to take on 34-year-old former world champion Andrade (31-0, 19 KOs)? Is it because he has a shoulder injury, or is it because of the way he sounds confused with Chris Eubank Jr.’s rambling call.
For many boxing fans who saw Andrade’s recent social media post, you have to worry about him because he’s been talking nonsense about how Eubank was able to get a million fighters. with him next instead of Conor Benn.
One million is chicken feed compared to the many millions Eubank Jr would probably get for the battle of Benn. Eubank Jr can earn many times more than fighting Benn, and he will likely never be entertained fighting Andrade.
“I want to fight Demetrius Andrade next, so stop talking nonsense,” said Jermall Charlo above social media. “Friend [people] in the comments you are acting weird. His name is Andreas, and I want to fight him next.”
Why doesn’t Jermall Charlo try to reschedule with Maciej Sulecki? Those two were supposed to fight on June 18, but Charlo withdrew from the competition due to a back injury.
Not sure now if the Charlo-Sulecki fight will ever take place, and also makes you wonder how serious Jermall’s back injury was for him to call the other boxers let alone reschedule. . Will ticket sales of the match between Jermall and Sulecki be poor?
“He didn’t even want to fight. Who else do I want to fight? GGG? GGG shouldn’t be fighting Canelo. Canelo defeated yours, so fight me so I can at least get my cloud up.
“Are you all haters? Munguia doesn’t want to fight me. He is a ** warrior. I want to fight Oscar De La Hoya, David Benavidez, Demetrius Andrade and Chris Eubank or what is his name. GGG again. I will fight GGG,” said Jermall.
That sounds like Jermall’s head is in space somewhere because none of the people on his list are going to fight him. Benavidez wanted to, but that fight was no longer possible.
