Dennis Hogan (28-2-1, 7 KOs), who challenges WBC middleweight champion Jermall Charlo in the main event on SHOWTIME Saturday night, spoke about the move up to middleweight at a media workout in Brooklyn. “Everyone who’s seen me fight fully knows that I can win this and I have 100 percent confidence that I will get it done,” said Hogan. If you know how determined I am, you know that I can win this fight.”
“I’ve gained power because of the extra carbohydrates that I’ve been able to have in camp. I have more back muscle, leg muscle and I can feel the power. It’s an extra 10 to 15% snap on my punches. We sparred with Jeison Rosario in Miami and he was exactly what I needed for this fight. He’s prepared me and gotten me ready for anything that Charlo can bring on Saturday.”

Why jemel charlie fighting a super welter who isnt even ranked in the top 15 and has almost no KOs?!? Is that what makes him feel he is the best?
Well he can’t fight any of the DAZN guys because he’s with PBC. DAZN owns almost every major player 160-175. But I agree this fight is a joke to some degree. But some feel he did beat Munguia and he’s moving up. Basically it’s a safe fight to keep him active. This Network contract BS is worse now than ever.
Political connections are blowing Jermall’s prime plain and simple. There are 2 names that everyone would love to see him against, but he isn’t a safe bet and he probably isn’t a big enough name to draw the general fan base.
I’d favor him against GGG and I think Canelo would win a Decision in yet another somewhat controversial way. Still, those are fights I’d pay to see.
Andrade is very good, but brings virtually no entertainment or bang for the buck.
Hogan should take this in 12 if he don’t get ripped off by the judges again.
He won’t be around for twelve.
