WBC Middleweight Champ Jermall Charlo Arrested in Fort Bend

The boxing world is full of colorful characters and sometimes they can run afoul with the law. It seems that Jermall Charlo is in a tough spot right now thanks to a bad decision.

Jermall Charlo has got himself into trouble once again. According to TMZ, the World Boxing Council (WBC) middleweight champion was arrested in Texas on Friday.

“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.”

Jail records show Charlo was slapped with a felony charge for assaulting a family member with a previous conviction. Cops set his bond at $10,000, though he has yet to get out of police custody.

This is the second time the 31-year-old boxer has landed himself in trouble with the authorities. TMZ previously reported the boxer’s arrest, which took place in San Antonio in August 2021.

Charlo was accused of stealing from a waitress during a dispute at a bar and was arrested by the cops. That case was dismissed earlier this month due to “insufficient evidence.”
