Jermell Charlo has always taken exception to his name not being mentioned on the vast majority of pound-for-pound lists. As the truculent Houston native scrolls through his boxing resume, he notices notable wins against the likes of Tony Harrison, Erickson Lubin and Jeison Rosario.
In the mind of the unified 154-pound titlist, there’s no reason why current WBO welterweight champion Terence Crawford should be placed so high on the mythical list while he finds himself on the outside looking in.
“Y’all have Terence Crawford really high,” said Charlo during an interview with an ESPN writer. “Did y’all look at his opponents and who he fought?”

Often times the current era of boxing is maligned and castigated as being less than eras of the past. While no one would describe this period as a “golden era” or compare it to the 1980s, there are a few standout positives that should be appreciated.
This weekend at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas, unified WBC, WBA, and IBF junior middleweight champion Jermell Charlo (34-1, 18 KOs) will step in the ring against WBO junior middleweight champion Brian Castano (17-0-1, 12 KOs) to crown an undisputed champion in the division.
Charlo has arguably been the most consistent junior middleweight over the last decade. He has been in the world title scene for over the previous five years. The Texas native was tested climbing up the rankings towards a world title facing the likes of Demetrius Hopkins, Gabriel Rosado, and Vanes Martirosyan.
