WBC middleweight champion Jermall Charlo is in trouble with the law again … TMZ Sports has learned he was arrested on Friday in Texas. A Fort Bend County Jail official tells us … the 31-year-old was booked at around 1:30 PM CT after a warrant for his arrest was issued by the Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office.
According to jail records, Charlo was booked on a felony charge of assaulting a family/household member with a previous conviction. His bond was set at $10,000, though records show he’s still in custody. Details of the allegations against Charlo are currently unclear … we’re working on it.
This is the second time Charlo has been arrested in the past year — as we previously reported, he was taken into custody in San Antonio in August 2021 after he was accused of stealing from a waitress during a dispute at a bar. That case was dismissed earlier this month due to “insufficient evidence,” records show.
Such good talent making bad decisions smh…
He aint that good either tbh
I wouldn’t call evading fighters talented
No , a roid can only make bad decisions !
He is a good fighter….Charlo Twins can fight…the key is can he stay focused in and out the ring…no doubt he can fight…can he stay focused outside the ring…
c fighters. hotheads , no plan ever.
What a surprise !
Yes, it is a surprise to hear in the news. However, it’s also sad to see such young talented fighters make bad choices in life. Some choices come with consequences that may haunt them for most of their lives. Felony crimes can hinder many folks from having many common privileges in general life. Charlo may stop boxing and retire one day, but his criminal background can hinder some of his opportunities in life due to the nature of the crime(s).
I don’t like Charlos they are cocky and arrogants they think the world revolves around them
Tzsyu the Charlo killer !!!
Ha! You gotta be kidding me. Tszyu is better than expected and he has probably been taught a lot from his well schooled legendary father but Tim isn’t killing anyone and if he fights either Charlo he will be lucky if he’s not the one killed.
Someone’s got to talk to the Charlos and keep them busy fighting. Idle minds are the devil’s playground. These two are way to high strung.
he can wrestle with bubba for seven years..his boxing career will be over but his bubba wrestling one will be fully bloomed
Yea , why don’t you go ” talk to him “
He’s a bum
Charlo is another wasted talent.
Police justice in 2!
It’s the first time i agree with your statement lol !! Just kidding !
Hahah how typical!! Charlo twins are absolute garbage anyways.
he is a stupid fool and a c fighter. Always a mouthy hothead. This seals his fate. Now he wont be thrashed by canola. his lil bro can mouth off now about racism and yada. he should already be in prison and this innocent family member would not have been punched by the middle weight champion . hope he gets 7 years, and the other charges still under investigation will be fast tracked. boxing needs none of his ilk.
Can’t help but wonder if CTE is a factor in situations like this. Some of the symptoms include, but are not limited to, impaired judgment, impulse control problems, aggression, depression, and anxiety. The dude gets punched in the head for a living, so it’s likely he has it to some degree. Think Jermaine Taylor, who once seemed like a pretty good dude, but clearly wasn’t the same guy towards the end of his career, and into retirement. Same thing could be going on with Charlo, but to a lesser degree. I once would have dismissed him as an idiot for something like this, but see it a little differently now having learned a little about CTE and how it effects people.
I’ve been punched in the head at least 10,000 times, yet I’m not out there doing stupid crap like Charlo. No excuses for his behavior. Remember when one of the Charlo brothers yelled at commentator Jim Gray in a threatening manner?
To be fair, some fighters are more susceptible to brain damage than others. How is it that James Toney and Pernell Whitaker, two of boxing’s greatest defensive masters, showed signs of brain damage, while fighters like Tex Cobb who were walking punching bags didn’t? Answer: genetic predisposition.
Tex never was right…
@Nordic I can’t explain why CTE would cause some people to behave erratically, but not others…and Charlo’s behavior, if what happened in the above article is true, may not have anything to do with CTE. It doesn’t make him innocent either way, just saying there MIGHT be a problem there that’s causing him to lack self-control.
You’re not talking to an intelligent lot of people on here, generally speaking. Most of them cannot understand that people with basically any sort of disease can exhibit very different symptoms and/or be more susceptible for any number of reasons. You’ll see a lot of logically flawed reasoning and false equivalences.
I’ve called Broner a douche on here without taking into account that he too may have a problem with head trauma. I suspect he was always the way he is now, but who knows.
CTE among former NFL players seems to get most of the headlines…..Junior Seau, Phillip Adams, and Aaron Hernandez come to mind, but they’ve found it in boxers (obviously), soccer players, and somehow a bobsledder. I would imagine that all boxers of Charlo’s experience have it. From what I’ve read, there is no treatment for CTE, which makes that whole situation even more f’d up…
Nordic: agreed. I boxed for lots of years at a high level and still not that stupid like Charlo. The difference from us vs him is that hes nothing more than a street thug with some skills and a really loud mouth. He needs to get humbled already by a fighter before he ends up getting shot on the streets
Test all of Portland, Baltimore….
damn Benavidez calls him out so he goes and gets thrown in jail all he has to do is just say no lol
Come on people, the article stated” According to jail records, Charlo was booked on a felony charge of assaulting a family/household member with a previous conviction. His bond was set at $10,000, though records show he’s still in custody. Details of the allegations against Charlo are currently unclear … we’re working on it”. Great job of reporting 3 of a 12 round fight. On the otherhand, they make it sound like maybe he did skip out on the restaurant bill if a current Middle Weight champion can’t pay a 10G bond to get out of custody.
Who cares! Don’t be stupid we all know the Charlo brothers have anger problems by watching their interviews. Yeah they made M’s but will Not go down as any HoF’s. Money got to their head SMH
Definitely not a “c” fighter. C fighters don’t get that many belts… the guy can fight…may not like his attitude or lifestyle ….just like us all…not perfect.,hopes he gets it right… remember he is a fighter not a priest nor is he attempt ing priesthood…just a fighter
Oh yeah…by the way…you better be cocky and confident in that ring…you better walk with swagger and be your own hype man…. especially in this sport…
He can blame his evil twin
Well, they do look alike and that has been tried before.
I have still tried to see both brothers as much as I can after what they do in the ring and in connection with it.
Sometimes it is difficult to defend oneself from what happens outside the ring and what is said during interviews and the like.
Think both brothers deliver in the ring and it should have credit for that.
At the same time, if things happen outside the ring that are not compatible with law and good morals, they will of course be exposed to it and have to take responsibility for that.
In this case a stormy private life will yield money and attention to future fights. Time will tell if the money will be managed well or if it was just a waste.
Any way you slice it, not good for Charlo.
he is acting like a n—– and overrated as a fighter!
Man, c’mon. And what are you acting like? Comment is totally unnecessary.
For real… as if there haven’t been fighters of other ethnic groups involved in BS. Blaming his ethnicity is like blaming him because he’s a Texan. It makes no sense. Call him a moron if you like; it fits better.
The worst is that people liked this comment. Be a human being. I so hope you don’t have kids. Do you think they want a parent who goes around using the N word like that? I’d be so embarrassed if I had a parent like you.
You could’ve said wanna be thug like me, not the word you used…
Must of been raised in a single parent household.
canelo still wont fight charlo even if his arrested
Why would he? Hes fighting 30 lbs above their weight class?
Reminds me of when Marvin Hagler avoided Azumah Nelson all those years! Lol!
Thought the Charlos matured from the days of drunken days in Vegas walking in packs of young thugs after fights and nearly starting riots in the great halls of great hotels. Jarmall still has anger issues.
I wish him better days. I don’t know the facts because this is none of my business but it can be difficult being a professional fighter, either past or present, in civilian life because everybody wants to try you. That’s why it’s usually best to stay to one’s self. We trained killers. G_D be merciful
Dang…some folks never learn to find proper methods of conflict resolution(s). If Jermall is later convicted, maybe spending time in jail (instead of probation) while taking a boxing financial hit will make him learn proper conflict resolution methods.
So Jermall arrested twice. Has Jermell been arrested? Jermell I always thought, is the better fighter.
Jermall hasn’t looked great in a while either. He’s not very active, inconsistent, 4 of last 5 have gone the distance and didn’t look particularly great against a limited fighter last time out.
Seems to be squandering his talent. Thats a real shame. He’s got tons of potential but all signs point to trouble.
“You can take the person out of the ghetto but you can not take the ghetto out of the person.” When I hear about situations like this, I always seem to remember Paul Spadafora.
Loved watching Spadafora fight!
They said it was against someone in his household, maybe some jewelry was taken, or maybe some money, some could really push you over the edge, can’t jump to conclusion if you wasn’t there but it is not legal to punch some one since your hands are classified as a weapon!!!
Your hands aren’t classified as a weapon. That’s a longstanding myth. However, a judge or jury may weigh that into their decision-making, especially in the case of a boxer using an excessive level of force.
Money and Family never ever works.
I will say the dates here are pretty curious. This happened on September 21. It could be a situation where something happened, and someone was waiting for money to not file charges and never got the payoff. That doesn’t mean it’s illegitimate. However, Charlo’s attorney is adamant that it’s a shakedown. It’s probably wise to withhold judgment until more information is out.
following boxing since early 70’s, same old story, look who he’s fought or hasn’t fought, all these years and we still don’t know how good he is
Well it looks like Canelo and may have to fight Dimitry Bivol in May after all, now that Charlo won’t be able to make it. I love Justice
Tired by these wanna be thugs !!
