As Jermell Charlo tried to wrap up his post-fight interview after closing the pay-per-view show with an impressive knockout from Jeison Rosario on Saturday night, he couldn’t hide the smile
In front of him the Houston fighter had three super welterweight title belts, two of which he had just taken from Rosario Behind him he had his twin brother Jermall, both arms stretched out in the air, shouting indistinguishable exhortations in its own way
“Look at him, he’s excited,” Jermell said of his twin, who earlier in the night retained his World Boxing Council middleweight title with an impressive unanimous decision over Sergiy Derevyanchenko. “He’s my biggest fan right now Love him to death He’s so happy Lions only promotions We’re getting ready to take over We’re the new era of boxing «
Lions Only Promotions, the twins ‘own company that promotes their fights and sells their wares, had their name inscribed on the backdrop of the Mohegan Sun Arena on Saturday night for the biggest night of the Twins’ career. twins
In the ring, there is no doubt it was a big night for the Charlos and Lions only In their first pay-per-view, Jermall (31-0, 22 KOs) fought a guy who was supposed to be the toughest challenger of his career and sent him a scientific high-level boxing demonstration Hours later, Jermell (34-1, 18 KOs) knocked down Rosario three times, including a knockout knockout in the eighth round that left Rosario flat on his back breathless as he was counted

The brothers have played, but the most important question will be answered in the coming days when the pay-per-view receipts are calculated
The $ 74 price tag of 99 was a bit higher than most boxing pay-per-views and it had the unfortunate moment of facing the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals and a big UFC pay-per-view
“I hope this is something new to the boxing world,” said Jermell “If this is a new era of pay-per-view, let me be there ‘man I can handle the work «
The Charlos did all they could to win another chance on their own night Now they just need some opponents who would help them sell another night like what Showtime billed as the Charlo Doubleheader
For Jermall, there are more middleweight belts to grab hold of, including the World Boxing Organization belt which belongs to Demetrius Andrade and the provisional World Boxing Association title held by Chris Eubank Jr
Then there’s a tantalizing potential fight with Mexican hero Canelo Alvarez, known as the franchise champion of the middleweight division but also linked to a contract dispute with DAZN, the company that broadcasts his fights.
Jermell cleaned up most challengers at 154 pounds, but a fight with former champions like Jarrett Hurd or Julian Williams would spark interest
« They’re just Lions forever, » Jermell said « We’ve been doing this for a long time Dreams come true It’s a part of my dream and a part of my destiny I’m content and I’m happy »
