JERMALL CHARLO FACES LENNY BOTTAI IN IBF ELIMNATOR ON DECEMBER 13
By Lamont Joseph | November 10, 2014



FightHype.com has be advised that undefeated jr. middlewight contender Jermall Charlo (19-0, 15 KOs) will return to the ring on December 13 to face Lenny Bottai (22-2, 9 KOs) on the undercard of Khan vs. Alexander. The bout will reportedly be sanctioned as an eliminator to determine the #1 mandatory challenger to the IBF jr. middleweight title, currently held by champion Cornelius "K9" Bundrage.

Bottai, who has never fought outside of his home country of Italy, is currently ranked #9 by the IBF. He last fought this past March, scoring a 12-round split decision victory over Ismael El Massoudi. Charlo was last seen in the ring more recently, stopping Norberto Gonzalez in the 7th round back in September.

Showtime has the much more competitive card on paper, hands down, no question....... but we won't know how well these fights come off until the bell rings.

Aside from Khan/Alexander and Andrade/Charlo the rest of those fights on Showtime are questionable.

Not really.

Considering when you think that the headliner is Khan vs Alexander and the Co-Main is Andrade vs Charlo, instead of watching fights like Jason Velez vs Miguel Contreria (some random ass 12-0 vs 9-3 fighters) and others of the like, we get to see Al Haymon flex his roster muscle and toss Keith Thurman, Victor Ortiz, Abner Mares, and Jermall Charlo in a title eliminator on the undercard like it's nothing.

Would you rather see them or Stefan Mazowski vs Antonio Medina?:sas2:


That's why Im thanking Al Haymon, because the whole card is filled and littered with name brand fighters that WE know....and it's free. The Main and Co-Main is good alone, throwing name brand fighters on the undercard is just flexing...because nobody wants to see a 15-7 figher vs a 8-0 fighter:yeshrug:

Throwing Thurman, Ortiz and the other Charlo brother that is on the undercard in what are basically glorified tune-up matches doesn't mean shyt to me. Haymon controls the biggest roster of fighters in the world but if they are not fighting other name dudes in that roster than what difference does it make? Should I just be ecstatic that he can throw as many guys out there in one-sided contests as he likes because of the size of his roster?

Thurman is fighting a 40 year old Bundu.
Ortiz and Mares don't even have opponents.
Charlo/Bottai is ESPN 2 status at best.

Man fukk Al Haymon... Khan/Alexander was supposed to happen last year... not only did he drop the ball on that... As a result we ended up having to watch Floyd vs Madonna for a whole year.. Only other interesting upcoming fight is Charlo/Andrade...

How did HE drop the ball? Khan backed out on that fight and he wasnt with Haymon at the time, so why blame Haymon?

But would you rather watch Thurman, Ortiz, and Mares against lesser opponents (as well as Charlo vs Bottai for the IBF mandatory contender shot) as undercard fights....or watch 4 fights of 3-0 Jason King vs 9-5 Horatio Paez, which is what those slots usually belong for?:mjpls:


Give me the names everyday of the week:yeshrug:
