2021 has already seen a number of fights to unify several world title belts and another undisputed champion is set to be crowned on July 17th in San Antonio, Texas.
The WBA, WBC and IBF super welterweight champion Jermell Charlo faces WBO champion Brian Castano at the AT&T Center, with the winner firmly cementing himself as the number one fighter at 154lbs.
After avenging his loss to Tony Harrison in December 2019 and reclaiming the WBC belt, Charlo has always had his eyes on making history, beating IBF and WBA champion Jeison Rosario last September and is now excited at the prospect of becoming the first-ever undisputed super welterweight champion.
Castano meanwhile won't be a walkover.
The Argentinian beat Patrick Teixeira on February 13th to claim the WBO title and will relish the underdog status going into this fight.
If he is able to beat Charlo in his home state come July 17th, it will be one of the sport's biggest upsets in recent memory.
