Charlo vs. Castaño II… May?

The second helping of Charlo Vs Castaño could take place on Saturday, May 14, and it`s expected to be officially announced soon.

Jermell Charlo and Brian Carlos Castaño dished up and dished out one of the most exciting fights of the year last, on July 17 at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas, ending in a draw. Judge Tim Cheatham saw it 114-114, Nelson Vázquez saw Charlo win 117-111 and Steve Weinsfield scored 114-113 for Castano.

Immediately after the official result was given, there was talk of a rematch, as both want to show who is the best fighter at 154 pounds.
Jermell Charlo won the WBC belt in May 2016 by defeating John Jackson via eighth round knockout. Although he lost that title in December 2018 to Tony Harrison, he regained it a year later. While, against Jeison Rosario, in September 2020, he won the IBF and WBA championships by knocking him out in eight rounds.

Brian Castaño became WBO world champion in February 2021, when he defeated Brazilian Patrick Teixeira by a wide unanimous decision.
