    Canelo is making a great move here, he'll destroy Charlo, most likely KO Benavidez as well. If he does face Crawford or Spence, it'll be a mismatch of comical proportions, but the casuals that don't understand weight divisions will be impressed. Then he'll duck Morrell and no one will care. Then he'll make the move to 175 or 200 officially, pick up straps there and retire.

    Yep Charlo is the tune up for Benavidez. I doubt he fights the Crawford Spence winner. He might wind up throwing Boo Boo a bone and beat him for fun in the 3rd fight of the contract.

    I considered saying Andrade, but at this point, I doubt even PBC would want to waste one of these three fights on what is essentially a non-entity who can't draw flies to ****.

    I am hoping by the time it gets to the 3rd fight we might get Canelo v Tim Tszyu

    For your sake, I hope that never happens, because it wouldn't end well at all for Timmy.:eek:

    If Canelo has a tough fight with Benavidez Tszyu might be getting him at the right time. It would likely be a 30 year old Tsyzu v 34 maybe 35 year old Canelo as Canelo is 33 next month.

    Not sure any version of TIm beats any version of Canelo. Let's be honest, it took a massive Light Heavyweight and the best Middleweight of the modern era who's made of iron to hand him blemishes. TIm ain't on that level and never will be.

    Made a terrible decision. He shouldn't have done a 3 fight deal should have been a one-off

    You could be right but if Tim walks through Charlo like I think he will the fight could be a big one.

    Canelo's finding it hard to uncover tin cans with unbeaten records and belts, for fightd that he can sell to the fans. The 175 guys will bust him up, Jermall who hasn't fought in 2 years is his best option. He will probably bring him up to 168.
