GREAT FIGHT!
i would really like to see jermall charlo vs saul canelo alvarez!!! charlo seems to be always under control, very difficult to beat him….
Great fighter Charlo, I would have liked to seen Drevyanchenco
wind it up in the earlier rounds. If that was the case I think that a draw would be likely. Intellecgent fight by Charlo.
