Jermall Charlo Vs. Jose Benavidez Jr. Virtual Press Conference
Reigning WBC middleweight champion Jermall Charlo held a virtual presser with Jose Benavidez Jr. as they prepare to face each other on November 25th, 2023.
The fight will be part of the David Benavidez vs. Demetrius Andrade card as Charlo has his first fight since beating Juan Macias Montiel in 2021 following his mental health struggles. Charlo had been linked with fighting Canelo Alvarez for his comeback fight. However, his brother, Jermell Charlo, got the fight instead as Jermall could not make the fight date. As such, Jermall is considered as a favorite against Benavidez Jr. since the latter does fight at 154 pounds. In addition, Benavidez Jr. has lost two out of his last four fights, showing that he is not in the best form. With that being said, here are the key quotes from the presser.
