Jermall Charlo vs Julian Williams: Turning the page at 154

12/10/2016 Chris Carlson

Prime and ready for battle, unbeaten junior middleweight’s Jermall Charlo and Julian Williams Jr. clash for one of the top spots at the division. Charlo is more experienced as a pro and Julian with a tad more potential. The process of splitting hairs is needed when attempting to separate who will be victorious this Saturday night.

Or at least make a name as the new kids on the block at several weight classes that include featherweight, welterweight, and junior middleweight.

Richard Schaefer
Thank you very much. And thank you to all the media to be on today’s call. I’m really excited. My first boxing conference call after almost three years out of the sport. So, I’m really excited to be at it again.
