    Jermell will likely fare about as well as Khan did but he will be handsomely rewarded for it.

    Keep hearing people say Clenelo isn't fighting the bigger twin. How can he be bigger if they're identical twins? :facepalm:

    Honestly as much a bum that Canelo is he could probably handle both Jermell's on the same night just like Tyson Fury could handle AJ & Usyk on the same night.

    only the fact that if canelo was the smaller man hed issue rehydration clauses or catchweights. Nothing to see here, classic canelo here.

    Oh really, then why didn't he issue a rehydration clause or catchweight when he fought Bivol? This is Undisputed vs Undisputed. History in the making. Stop your crying and detracting, be a real boxing fan. This is something to look forward to, not something to complain about.

    dazn chose the opponent. He wanted joe smith and a fight vs a cruiser nobody.

    If this was at 160 I'd be pretty stoked but I'm guessing theyre gonna meet at 168, which is kindve pathetic on canelos part and just screams money grab for charlo.

    Man I like your avatar.,....."haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa haaaaaa haa haaa, good evening, kiddies!"

    Ok so I think this has the potential to be an interesting fight at least, name wise, as in, in paper.

    But you are right, Canelo will win.

    The funny thing is people say Jermello is smaller than Clenelo and is moving up two divisions, and whilst both are true the weight difference between them isn't near as much as many will assume it is and I mean judging from what they actually weigh in the ring on fight night now

    Weight: Clenelo 178-180 - Jermello 170

    Reach: Clenelo 70½'' - Jermello 73''

    Height: Clenelo 5' 8'' - Jermello 6'0''

    And obviously with that very lean 6ft frame Jermello is going to and easily be able to pack on more weight and come in heavier than he does at 154

    In terms of actual size disparity this ain't no Haney vs Loma type scenario where you have a 20lb weight difference and a near 6'' reach difference between them nor even remotely close
