In a fight where he was made to work, he indeed did, and made a decent comeback as the fight progressed after a strong start from Harrison.
Here is some of the action in the fight:

Here’s what Charlo had to say himself in his post-fight interview:
One interesting running analysis of what transpired was by none other than from American pound for pound maestro Terence Crawford.

Indeed, Crawford no doubt was trying to drum up some self publicity too.
Understandably so.
As he will need the Premier Boxing Champions series to reach out to him in the new year to make a big fight at welterweight or risk being totally screwed and left out in the cold without any meaningful fights in his career moving forward.
With most of the big fights at welterweight at PBC hopefully Crawford can somehow find a way to get a shot at one of them.
