WBC middleweight champion Jermall Charlo has been arrested … after cops say the boxing superstar melted down at a bar and stole money from a waitress, TMZ Sports has learned. The alleged incident all went down in San Antonio on July 16 — the day before Charlo’s brother, Jermell Charlo, fought Brian Castaño to a draw at AT&T Center.
According to police documents, Jermall was with a large party at the Texas bar when the waitress presented the group with the bill.
In the docs, cops say Jermall handed over his credit card and ID … but the card was declined despite three attempts to run it.
When the waitress came back to Jermall asking for another form of payment … the 31-year-old allegedly snapped.
Police say surveillance video shows Jermall “being very animated” and appearing to “be upset and yelling” at the waitress and two other managers on the scene.
In the video, according to cops, Jermall can then be seen taking away two bill collection binders from the waitress and stealing everything from the inside of them.
Cops say one of the binders had Jermall’s ID in it … while the other had “cash payment made by another customer” that the waitress had been serving previously in the night.
In the docs, cops say witnesses claim Jermall then told the bar’s employees, “I will f*** you alls s*** up.”
Cops say Jermall and his crew then stormed out of the bar — “pushing their way past the employees” — and then got into a limousine bus and left.
In the docs, the waitress told cops she suffered a minor leg injury while Jermall’s crew ran into her while leaving the bar.
Arrest warrants were ultimately issued for Jermall over the incident … and we’re told the fighter turned himself in to authorities on Wednesday morning.
We’re told Jermall is already in the process of posting bond.
We’ve reached out to the Charlos’ camp for comment, but so far, no word back yet.
I think Charlo is very fresh.
Not in total shock over this, but a little surprised that he was involved it. I looked at him as a guy who had his shyt together, then he pulls this Adrien Broner-type crap. Maybe alcohol was involved? Maybe signs of CTE? Maybe just a random idiotic act? Just a reminder that we don’t know what people are really like in their personal lives.
Specially, when things are not going their way. No maturity.
They claim to be Lions but they are nothing but pussycats.
USF, excellent thought on the CTE possible consequences. Yes, very possible. CTE is a work in progress in studies on long-term effects. I personally know patients who suffer from CTE from their college football days and they have issues with memory and even have altered coping skills in stressful situations. Sad, but nobody is immune from negative health consequences.
I want to applaud the police for their exemplary service to the community, and for bringing this thug to justice. Lock Charlo Up.
We all know that this was arrest was another bogus arrest. Really? The guy has a lot of money and assets, I doubt he tried to steal a waitresses money. If you believe that then you’re a fool.
Stingray, there’s video of the situation. Just another thug punk that will either end up dead or in prison.
His credit cards were declined…he must not have that much money
You have never had your credit card
declined before? Think about it,
a credit card is just an agreement to
pay later. It has nothing to do with what
you have. This is a misunderstanding
and people are so quick to call a black
man a thug and a punk. I have no doubt
in my mind this wasn’t a robbery. Who
was paying for the limousine bus they
were travelling in?
Nothing to do with a black man George Leerman. Instead of handing over another card when that one declined, he decides to tear the place down because his “thug” friends probably made fun of him. And I say probably because I wasn’t there but it’s usually what happens when something like that happens.
Or a small credit limit.
StingRey, that doesn’t matter. This happens often with these “a lot of money and assets” famous people. They have plenty and still feel they aren’t obligated to anything because of their fame and position. He more than likely snapped because he was embarrassed on front of his gang. And it doesn’t surprise me that this happened with him. All the stupid crap that he says on YouTube, you can tell he was headed in that direction.
Omyyyyyy… If true, Very impressive
Getting arrested is not impressive. It’s very stupid.
Yes, especially when there’s no reason to lock someone up.
I hope this low life gets 4 to 8 years in state prison. Prison is for low lives like this punk.
Everytime a thug like this gets a prison sentence, I go out with the girls and celebrate. And we are not cheap. We are bottle service. Top of the line.
Lock Charlo Up.
Are you really Gloria Martinez Rizzo?
Me too.
You are a low life. Charlo will easily beat this charge. Why
would you call Charlo a low life?
What is your motive for those
mean words? Are you afraid that
Canelo will have to fight him soon?
George, a quote from Colbi Cali on this comment section “ He always seemed immature, but Jesus… stealing money from a waitress????”. Those type of actions usually call for a person being labeled as a low life. But how about you tell us what he should be called…
StingRey, a waitress alleges being injured by him and his possee, that’s not reason enough? If a family member was a waitress and was injured in a situation like that, would you still say no reason?
really? lol… Ilhan Nancy Cortez
sarcasm anyone??
Ilhan Nancy Cortez
would you also take it seriously, if i said he was a genius.??? lol
He always seemed immature, but Jesus… stealing money from a waitress????
You really believe the reports? Come on man.
Right, why believe a video and police reports? Charlo couldn’t have done this because he is a din-do. He din do nuffin. They never do. This is all a perpetrated conspiracy to frame a black mayne, right?
Total character flaw. Only cowards pick on those weaker than them. Let’s see Charlo try to take bill collection binders out of Golovkin’s or Canelo’s hands.
This is just a stunt so he could avoid fighting Benavidez LMAO!! Picking on waitresses bruh? Cmon you should be above that. Besides it’s not her fault your damn card declined…..Get your crap together homie
Sheeze, you guys are sheep. So if the news says it musty be true?
Is Canelo (p4p king) doing anything close to this?conduct yourself like a champ in and out of the ring. Do you work for a living? Probably not (not judging). The girl is just an Employee trying to make ends meet. Not her fault his payment bounced or got declined. I’s Canelo doing the S?
So was it made up? Isn’t there a video of it? Him turning himself in is also made up? Take that sheep crap somewhere else.
Lol. Left In a limousine but he is broke.. what a joke .. I bet he got a lot of expensive car too… but no cash
Angel, paying for the limo maxed out the credit card.
P.B.C.-Poor, broke, classless!
He can always thank Al.. or blame him for getting him enough fights to pay his crews bar tab.
But he always says how represents his people and Houston. Stupid.
“Jermall then told the bar’s employees, “I will f*** you alls s*** up.””
– Could someone please fill in the letters for me as I think I know what he said but I just wanted to check 🙂
I’m pretty sure this charge is bogus. Jermall has lots of money and assets. No need to be stealing.
Making lots of money and keeping it vs making lots of money then blowing it stupidly on toys and an entourage to the point your credit card gets declined is two different things entirely
It is supposedly on tape.
So the video is fake? What would be the motivation to set him up with bogus charges?
Shawn, Sting Rey is just here to troll. Or he is black and will never convict a black man.
What is a married family man with a very succesful career in sports & who claims to want to be a rol model for young men and children, getting drunk in a Texas Bar ? Hello ……!
You guys really think that Jermall Charlo took somebody else’s cash, or was he taking his cash? If a video shows you getting into a car, does that mean your stealing it? At best, Charlo may have gotten mad for any reason. But I’m pretty sure arresting was an over-the-top move on the cops part.
No class
I blame the fed’l gov’t; how’d they ever let it go this far?! I think the union ought to get involved, maybe even the teamsters…
Hahahah TYPICAL!!! What an absolute loser!!
If Canelo was in in this situation he would buy the BAR and give the employees a raise $. That is some low class hoodrat behavior the CharLOWS
Mr. Charlo is going to be a PRISON INMATE soon. Lock Him Up.
A word to the wise. Don’t mess with Texas.
Seeing Charlo getting arrested is delicious.
The girls & I are going out to celebrate Charlo’s arrest. Top of the line VIP service. Bottle service. We are having fun tonight.
Invita 🙂
charlo on the blow for sure
signs of a weak mental person and the bottom line here is if you want to act like an animal then you will be treated as such Charlo was nothing more than a top 5 fighter at best he is scared to fight GGG, Mungia, Benevidez, or even BoobBoob and dont even mention Canelo he only fights the elite fighters who EARN their way to the top NOT the ones who try to TALK their way to it.
Superstar is a very strong word, not sure it fits the ‘bill’
This is why.
Typical scumbag american criminal
He is champ and making money yet he still has to show his friends he is still a “Jenny from the block” and has to save face when getting embarrassed in front of his friends. Probably not the best way to do it but it is all he knows.
The dude has made $millions & his credit cards are getting declined?
Fukn hero picking on a waitress. Real tough.
You people believe everything you hear and act like you guys are perfect. He didn’t rob no one. Just another incident where people are trying to con money out of the guy.
Jae, he took something that, HE handed over, was in the possession of the business. He forcefully took it. Then went on to injure the waitress. And made the threat. Is that not enough? If he was being conned, call the cops. Make a report. But I guess that would show he’s week and lower his street creds?
The Charlo’s initially rubbed me the wrong way when one of the twins was involved in an altercation in the audience when Jose Uzcategui was DQ’d against Andre Dirrell. Announcer Jim Gray asked the fighter if he was okay. Charlo (not sure which one) snapped back in a threatening manner, “Is you?” What kind of scumbag threatens an old man who merely asks about his well-being?
This just goes to show that you can take the rat out of the hood, but you can’t take the hood out of the rat. You’re a multi-millionaire and you skip out on your bar tab and hurt people who make less money in a year then you make in a couple of hours? This is like that time when one of the members of Bones Thugs and Harmony, at the height of their career, stole a pair of shoes from a store. That’s a learned mentality and a conscious choice when something like that is done.
What a total loser. No class.
Sooooooo you have money for a limo but none for your meal. Sounds like his “crew ” are leaches. He clearly didn’t have the money so why didn’t his crew chip in and help cover? Oh yeah because they’re leaches. This is one of the dumbest stories I read in a while. Always have a back up form of payment, STOP overspending and get some real friends or eat by your damn self lol.
But there’s also the video evidence and the fact that Charlo took the waitresses book and ran out the door with it. It would have been one thing had he just skipped on the bill and took off, but why did he have to take something that didn’t belong to him as well?
Why does this not surprise me?
