Still can’t believe people actually thought the Charlos were somewhat of a threat to GGG/Canelo

    I remember when people actually pegged those two as the next top dogs who have a chance at beating Canelo or even GGG, especially Jermall. I hoped that they were better than they were hyped by some people here but they really aren’t. Canelo and GGG would have no problem with those two.

    Maybe GGG will take that fight now and hopefully he does as it would be a barnburner.

    Styles make fights however and GGG is not a slick southpaw counter puncher. He doesn't have the upper body movement Korobov has either.
    GGG will be taking the type of shots early that Korobov was taking late. Since Golovkin doesn't like to get hit , he'll probably continue to avoid Charlo.
    If Lara was able to run Canelo to the absolute brink of defeat , imagine what GGG would do to him :scared1

    I thought Charlo would give both Canelo and GGG a pretty tough fight. Now I suspect they both whip his ass. Or maybe Korobov is flat out better than we give him credit for.

    Biggest plot twist of the boxing world, Korobov can outbox both Canelo and Golovkin :risas3:

    If Charlo is a Lion, what does that make Golovkin?

    Damn that would be a shocker!

    His timing is excellent and he's clearly awkward. But I don't think he's busy enough to compete with those two.

    LDBC has had a fantastic year. What with Wilder & Charlo cooking the books & pimp Stevenson tasting some Ukrainian lemonade. Never mind, at least HGH Errol is fighting that Mexican midget without the slightest hint of noise they made over Rigo Loma :lol:

    And they still are. Anything can happen in the ring on any night. The opponents they fought were far from pushovers, and you can't look good against every opponent at world level. I think the best of the Charlos are yet to come.

    One thing that was established, Jermall has a good chin.

    Yeah anything can happen. I thought Buster Douglas going to get annihilated against Mike Tyson . He fought the fight of his life.
