Jamell Charlo hasn’t fought since losing to Canelo Alvarez two years ago, but he hopped on social media to tell his followers that he’s working on his return and will be deliberate in who he chooses as an opponent for his next fight while also quickly touching on this weekend’s big fight.
“I’m back in the ring soon,” Charlo said. “Got a couple more days and ya’ll going to see Canelo fighting Crawford so I should be in the back of the book and I come back to my weight division and try to see what I can
destroy before I make a decision on who I’m going to destroy. We’re going to make a strategic move, make sure we do it the right way.
“I ain’t got no comment on who going to win no fight, you dig. If Crawford do what he supposed to do he got an option. If he don’t, he don’t beat Canelo. Simple as that. If Crawford don’t do what he got to do he going to lose.”
Based on Charlo’s words it would appear that he’s acknowledging his intention on taking a relatively soft touch for his comeback fight, which probably is to be expected considering the fact he’ll have been out of action for over two years by the time it takes place. That, of course, won’t be an event that gets fans into frenzy, but there is potential for a good fight to be made for Charlo following.
Who would you like to see him in the ring against?
