    What now? Canelo vs Benevidez is still the biggest fight at 168, even though DB is in tough against Andrade, what's next for Charlo? The only fight that makes sense at 154 is Tyszu, I don't wanna see Crawford in the mix at 154, until Charlo and Tyszu fight. PERIOD.

    Yeah but those are the meaningful fights that need to happen at those weights. This was a farce.. just like I said months ago, when it was announced.

    Glorified sparring session. Charlotte fought to survive, didn’t try to win.

    I didn't think Charlo had a chance and the way he fought, neither did he.

    Pretty much everyone knew this would be a waste of time the moment it was announced. I was at least hoping that Charlo would make more of an effort to fight but he fought mostly to survive. It was an overall dull affair for a fight that was hyped up as “Undisputed vs Undisputed”.

    I think he had better intentions...till round two.

    When he absorbed a couple of Canelo's body shots, he became disinclined to engage and went into defensive mode, hoping to survive until Canelo tired late in the fight.

    But when that didn't happen, and when he discovered that even though he could land decent leather on Canelo, it didn't seem to affect the Mexican nor keep his from coming forward, Charlo resigned himself to the truth...he couldn't win, and he just hoped to make it till the final bell.

    If you are losing the fight, and don't even try to go out on your shield to get the win. You should retire....

    Do you think Canelo went out on his shield against Bivol?

    Do you think that canelo didnt try all he could to win that fight vs bivol?

    ofc he did.

    Charlo is a disgrace. I hope that his future is an injury and retirement. He doesnt want to fight, right? so, so be it. This ******* went into the ring to laugh at aficionado's faces. If it depended on me, I would retire his ****ing purse.
