    Just because he's fighting Clenelo (for the bag) doesn't mean he didn't duck Tim. See case of Mikey, who swove Lomachenko.

    Charlo knew his next fight would be a loss, so when a shot at the Canelo retirement fund came along why not take an L and gets paid. Can't blame him but he was shaking in his boots at the thought of fighting Tszyu.

    well, It is just case of a lot more money. This how life works, I feel a little sorry for Tim. Charlo is
    probably getting three times money for the canelo fight.

    Why do you feel sorry for Timmy, when he benefits from the entire ordeal? The WBO will strip Charlo from the belt and upgrade Tszyu to the full champion status.

    It’s not a duck when you take a much harder fight for much more money. Silly

    Charlo would rather get KTFO by Canelo than embarrassed by Tim.

    Charlo is cashing out. Fine. w.e just strip the clown of his belts so the division can move on.

    It's prize fighting. He would be an idiot if he didn't take the Canelo payday. Look at Plant. He is setup for life cause of the Canelo payday.

    It is when everyone (himself included) expects him to lose to Canelo and when he loses to Canelo he can always say “I lost because I moved up 2 weight classes bla bla bla), something he can’t say if he lost to Tim in his own weight class.

    It’s 100% a cash grab but also a duck.

    It's a win win for the twins. Jermello gets the escape route out of the Tszyu fight he was desperate for whilst being praised for ''daring to be great'' for jumping up two divisions even though his brother is the one who will be facing Clenelo

    And Jermallo gets to retain his unbeaten record even though he takes a loss and they both get to share a bag and an even bigger one for the rematch when big bro Jermallo tries to avenge lil bro's 'loss' even though in reality he's trying to avenge his own loss.
