    Assuming that Jacobs loses to Golovkin that is a match I would be very interested in and I'd be pulling for Charlo. I don't think Charlo and Golovkin are ever going to have a fight as I suspect this will be Golovkin's last year at MW and Charlo's team released a statement saying they don't want to put him in the ring with Golovkin immediately.

    Ryota Murata could use a big match and with his amateur pedigree and winning gold in the olympics I don't think fighting Charlo is a mismatch at this stage of his career. Same thing for Derevyanchenko. I don't think it puts Charlo in a lose-lose situation because beating an olympic gold medalists is quite an accomplishment.

    There is also Dominic Wade who I don't expect to be much of a threat to Charlo, but he could use this fight to just test he waters at MW before he moves on to someone tougher and Wade doesn't have a fight scheduled as I know.

    He'll eventually go there. I'm fine with him doing his thing for now, so long as he fights the top guys. Why isn't Lara tweeting about him?

    He's already at 160. Vacated his title and everything.

    Why would Lara be tweeting about Charlo, Lancina?

    He dropped the IBF title? Finally stopped trying to drain down and thats good. If they don't chase Golovkin now they will have no big fights at 160 unless a bunch of other 154 guys pull the same move and go up. Andrade and a few others need to let 154 go. They waited for Floyd and now they are waiting for Canelo and they all need to cut it out.

    Been documented a few times, he will not fight Lara his close friend and he's already in the 160 division. Also back to the topic at hand. I really want him to fight Canelo, I think that would be a great fight for both and it'll be fun to watch from a fans perspective

    I forgot about their friendship. With canelo and charlo essentially the same age and weight, I believe it's a fight we'll eventually get.

    Naw, right now as they stand if he was fighting Charlo instead of Chavez Jr. I'm going with Canelo. Cinnamon is deceptively fast and hits hard. Canelo just has "ok" footwork extremely slow on his feet. I got Canelo by UD. Charlo would put up a hell of a fight

    Somebody in the top 8-10 ranking in the division would be a good start for his initial fight at 160 lbs- someone like a Wade or Monroe Jr. I'd favor Jermall in both of those fights.
