Charlo Vs Castano rematch- who`s improved the most?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

By James Blears<\/p>\n

WBC, WBA and IBF super welterweight champion Jermell Charlo Vs WBO champion Brian Castano rematch for the Undisputed Title, on Saturday on May 14th at Dignity Health Sports Park, Carson\u2026a question of who can adapt, to make the necessary adept adjustments and improvements to win.
\nIt was to have happened on March 19th, at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, but had to put back, because Brian reported a slight tear to his right bicep, which didn`t require surgery but needed healing and recuperation, in order for him to be fully ready.<\/p>\n

\"https:\/\/suljosblog.com\/suljos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/charlo-castano-fight-1.jpg\"
\nFight one last July 17th at the AT&T Stadium Houston, was an absolute thriller, and a pointer to what will happen next. Both started cautiously and prudently in round one, with respect for each other`s ability and punching power. With gloves cupped high around his face, Brian was then 17-0-1, 12 KO`s and is a stocky at five feet seven and a half inches tall, which is almost four inches shorter than lean, elegant and elongated Jermell, with a sixty seven and a half inch reach. He really needed to breach that gap in distance to reach Jermell (34-1, 18 KO`s) who has a seventy three inch reach.
\nThe action flared in round three when Brian caught Jermell with a mighty left hook and an even harder follow up one, which wobbled him. Brian launched a follow up onslaught from hell, for the twenty seconds remaining until the bell, to emphatically punctuate, what was an eventful round.
\nAs Brian was pressing, Jermell was counter punching, trying to pick his shots and land precisely, while Brian was successfully reducing the distance, to throw hooks, as jabs were never going to so effective, as he was outreached. Robustly square shouldered in almost zoot suit shape, with his surname tattooed on his back, Brian is a pressure fighter, who likes to let his hands go. While Jermell is more selective with his marksmanship, in his efforts to establish a thudding hallmark impression.<\/p>\n

\"https:\/\/suljosblog.com\/suljos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2021\/charlo-castano-draw.jpg\"<\/p>\n

Both warmed to their task in rounds six and seven, opening up with venom, in ferocious yet controlled close range exchanges, much to the delight of the fans, initially on the edge of their seats and then brought to their feet by the intense action, which they roared on. With very few clinches and scrupulously fair fighting, Referee Hector Afu, as always vigilant, but astutely, with no fuss, let the action flow.<\/p>\n

An important turning point came in the tenth, when Jermell landed a thunderous left hook which shook Brian, who had to weather a cascade of ensuing and pursuing punches. Jermell capitalized on this, pressing and forcing the momentum plus action and with it advantage, to win the last three rounds on all three Judges` scorecards which was timely as well as tactically necessary. A crucial charging late surge.<\/p>\n

So\u2026a split draw. Steve Weisfeld totted it up as 114-113 for Brian, Nelson Vazquez saw it as 117-111 for Jermell, while Tim Cheatham had it as a 114-114 draw.<\/p>\n

Both fighters visibly crestfallen and disappointed, convinced of victory, and knowing that a second encounter for all four belts was now inevitable.<\/p>\n

In the rematch, Jermell must start faster and go on to the attack much sooner, rather than relying on counter punching. He must impose himself earlier. While Brian has to maintain that blistering pace, which he established in fight one. It slightly diminished after the half way mark. Then\u2026 Jermell`s impactful left hook in the tenth, took yet more out of Brian, and Brian lost the last three rounds.<\/p>\n

Up to this point, the only blemish on Jermell`s record was the loss of his championship on points to Tony Harrison, which he avenged by a spectacular eleventh round KO in their rematch. Jermell aged thirty one, has been a pro boxer since he was seventeen, back in 2007. Brian aged thirty two, turned pro in 2012, aged twenty three.<\/p>\n

Brian`s father Carlos, an ex- boxer himself, has always been in his corner. Brian`s younger brother Alan aged twenty nine is also a pro boxer. His record as a middleweight is 14-1, 9 KO`s. They often train together.<\/p>\n

\"\"Jermell is one minute younger than identical twin brother Jermall. They are the first twins ever to be super welterweight champions simultaneously. On May 21st 2016 Jermall retained his IBF super welterweight championship with a UD over Austin Trout. On that same night Jermell won the vacant WBC title knocking out John Jackson in the eighth round.<\/p>\n

Another notable bit of history, this time at the Barclays Center, when Jermall won the toss of the WBC coin by Gerry Cooney against Jermell, calling it heads. So on December 22nd 2018, Jermall was top of the bill to defend his WBC Interim middleweight title against Willie Monroe Jr. But Willie failed a doping test, and was replaced by Matt Korobov, whom Jermall defeated by UD. That was the very night when Jermell lost his WBC super welterweight title to Tony Harrison, which he won back from Tony, two fights later. Jermall is the current WBC middleweight champion. Jermall has an unbeaten record of 32-0, 22 KO`s.<\/p>\n

The love and bond of identical twins is something which is easy to put into words, but impossible to adequately quantify. Jermell and Jermall staunchly support each other on their fight nights. Often as not the twin who`s not fighting, is there to support, cheer on, hug and whole heartedly congratulate the other.<\/p>\n

\"https:\/\/suljosblog.com\/suljos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/charlo-twins_164567.jpg\"<\/p>\n

But as sometimes happens with twins, there can be a competitive frisson, leading to friction. Jermall has said: \u201cI want us to be at the top together. Never just a race together, but there has to be a first place and a second place. I`m ok with being in second place.\u201d<\/p>\n

But as Jermall and Jermell instinctively know, twins are one soul in two bodies. As the saying goes: \u201cI love you as I love myself, as you are my other half. I love you more than all the wealth of this world. Thank you for being my twin.\u201d<\/p>\n
