Undisputed middleweight champion Jermell Charlo (35-1-1, 19 KOs) is expected to team up with WBO mandatory challenger Tim Tszyu (21-0, 15 KOs) to decide in the next few weeks whether to defend against the Australian or leave the belt on this version. About it

“Hopefully, he is considering our option,” the functionary said. He spoke so frankly about the “weaknesses” that he thought he noticed in Tszyu during his US debut. And after his performance against Castaño, he should be full of confidence.”
According to Tim’s representative, if Charlo really does not see a threat in Tszyu, then he has an easy way to prove it – “do not leave the title and do not run away, but fight him for all the belts.”
“Kamon, Jermell, let’s fight!” Rose concluded, barely restraining himself from adding “yo, bro.”
Tszyu not ready to fight e-Charlo – Castaño
If the fight does take place, it will be the beginning or middle of autumn, and almost certainly the United States.
Immediately after Charlo’s early victory in a rematch with Castaño, Tim revealed why he would beat Jermell. The latter generally got nasty to the reporter: “Fuck you and your Tim Kazu.”
In addition to Tszyu, Charlo has two more mandatory defenses on hand: against Sebastian Fundora (WBA) and Bakhram Murtazaliev (WBC).
