Jermall Charlo (born May 19, 1990) is an American professional boxer and the current IBF junior middleweight champion. He has an identical twin brother, Jermell, who is also a professional boxer and is younger by one minute. Both brothers are graduates of Hastings High School. They began boxing when they started following their father, himself a former boxer, into the gym.[2]
Amateur career
Jermall was fighting to get a spot in the 2008 Olympic team, but he was forced to back out due to a toe injury. Jermall kept fighting as an amateur for one more year and finished with an impressive record of 65-6.

Super Welterweight
On August 12, 2008 Charlo made his professional debut against Cimmaron Davis and won the fight via 2nd round technical knockout.
On July 11, 2009 Charlo faced Deon Nash, the opponent his brother Jermell went up against and beat in 2008. Jermall won a comfortable unanimous decision victory and later fought Nash to a rematch on August 28, 2010 and Charlo would end up winning again by a corner retirement.
On October 24, 2010 Charlo went up against Puerto Rican Carlos Garcia, the opponent his brother Jermell beat a year ago. The brothers have both beat Garcia by unanimous decision.
