Jermell Charlo is preparing to go to war with Canelo Alvarez. The Louisiana-born is the challenger to Alvarez’s undisputed super-middleweight world championship title. And, even though he filled in the shoes of his twin brother, who decided not to go ahead with the fight, it seems like Jermell Charlo is not taking the fight lightly. This is Charlo’s opportunity to make a mark and do something not many have been able to do. Moreover, the 33-year-old has been training hard to ensure that he is at the top of his game on fight night.

He is determined to not give the reigning champion any chance to get an opening. However, even though the clip shows Charlo’s hard work, he failed to leave a mark on the fans. @TheDaggerMMA, for example, believes all of this hard work is futile. As they wrote, “All this just to get torched.”
