“Needs To Come Back Strong “: News Of Jermall Charlo’s Potential Comeback Fight Draws Mixed Reactions From Fans

Jermall Charlo hasn’t had any fight ever since his last victory against Juan Macias Montiel back in 2021. Since then despite several rumors of his return nothing came to be as he stayed out of the ring, using the much-needed break to address his mental health issues. However, the boxing world was left shocked as the news came out that ‘Hitman’ would be facing Canelo Alvarez next. But it turns out that it will be his brother who will be fighting Alvarez instead of him, though he recently revealed that he backed out so that both brothers can make money fighting the Mexican icon.

As the time for the bout between Jermell Charlo and Alvarez is almost upon us, it seems, the bigger Charlo might be facing somebody else now. People thought that after getting slapped by Caleb Plant , the older Charlo brother would be fighting the former champion. However as it turns out, Charlo might just fight against the older brother of David Benavidez, Jose Benavidez Jr. He recently joined the ranks of the 160-pound weight category after his victory against Sladan Janjanin.

Speculations are rife that the Jermall Charlo fight might be included in the Benavidez vs. Demetrius Andrade undercard in November. Moreover, ‘the Mexican Monster is looking forward to his brother defeating Charlo so that he can discredit ‘Hitman’ as a valid opponent for Alvarez. Interestingly Benavidez still plans to force Alvarez to fight him next after the champion previously ignored his $50 million offer. Now the question arises- what does the boxing world think of the potential bout?

Meanwhile, someone else mocked the brother’s trademark “Lions Only”. He also called out Charlo on his previous statement about not needing a tune-up and called it a “bunch of lies.”

Someone else questioned Charlo about why he wasn’t fighting Caleb Plant next after getting slapped by the boxer. He asked, “Jermall you’re gonna let a man slap you straight across the face and not make him your next fight?”

Moreover, one fan shared his theory about the future continuation stating. “Charlo will win. So that sets up Benavidez-Charlo. Winner of that gets the canelo pay day.”
