    He has arrived
    Jacobs gets flattened
    BJS gets backed up
    GGG doesn’t fight him
    Canelo eats steak

    I definitely see it as a possibility. I think hes a very live and dangerous underdog to the top tier and I cant wait to see how it looks when the dust settles. He adds an extra, exciting dimension to middleweight, imo.

    As long as he stays hungry and in shape Jermall will for sure run 160 once GGG retires.

    If Charlo is now GGG's mandatory I guess he'll have to fight him. Though every belt GGG holds has a different mandatory he cannot fight them all

    160 is stacked.

    Time for the top guys to fight each other. There's been zero fights between the top contenders like Charlo, Jacobs, Derevyanchenko, Murata, and Andrade, and that needs to change in the next 12 months.

    I know the call is for GGG to fight these cats, but it's time they actually squared off against each other to stake their claim and jump ahead of the pack. Right now the only one that's risked something to jump to the front has been BJS by schooling Lemieux in his back yard. The rest are biding their time and waiting for GGG to get old or drop a belt.

    I can’t confidently say Jermall beats GGG, that would be presumptuous. I also can’t say after watching GGG for several years operate against smaller less talented men that he would just steamroll an athlete with the boxing fortitude and sharpness of Jermall. It’s a tough call but at this stage GGG would have his hands full versus Charlo, to deny this would be down right delusional.

    He's looking very legit. He's not to be taken lightly. Id like to see him against Saunders. Easily Saunders most complete opponent.

    I never implied Jacobs was smaller, my comment was more of package deal where the majority didn’t have the combo of being larger and rangy plus being talent and skilled. Charlo brings both items and I find Charlo to have more focus when compared to Jacobs.

    Ggg should fight BJS after Vanes if Canelo chooses a different option, but Charlo if no Canelo fight should be next on the list for GGG.
    IF G loses the IBF strap then Derevchenko and Jacobs/Andrade should get the nod.
