    Charlo won't ever fight at 154 again. A rematch with Spence in December also looks unlikely considering how much damage Spence took in the fight, it would surely be in 2024.

    Whilst Crawford is tied up with the Spence rematch, hopefully Ennis can pick up a good win against a big name like Thurman.

    Well that's his IBF mandatory so it's got to happen sooner or later. Rocha is a mandatory for the WBO, Stanionis the WBA, WBC is Thurman so one Mando at a time.

    He will drop the belt, he don’t want no smoke unless it’s a car wrecked drained fighter. We know the Charlo bout ain’t happening either

    Well, 154 division is more challenging than anybody at 147, that's for sure.

    With Crawford gone, the top two fighters at 147 are Boots and Stan I guess.

    It’s literally the only fight to take. I also think Stanionis deserves a shot after all his bad luck.

    Crawford has earned the right to sit out and let these guys earn a shot

    Its a shame Charlo is busy I think he would have gone straight into the fight

    Im guessing hes going to do the Spence rematch then wait for Charlo then probably retire after that

    True, but I doubt the Spence rematch ends up happening and Charlo probably won’t fight much at all after the Canelo payday. His only option that matters is to fight a mandatory

    I predicted Spence and Crawford would duck Super Boots after facing each other. I've given Crawford the benefit of the doubt because I believe he's, so to speak, cut from British cloth but I will be very disappointed and revoke his badass card from him if he ducks the Super Boots challenge. I also predicted that Super Boots would ice Spence if the later didn't pull the duck and of course once again Serge was proven right.



    Here's Crawford saying Super Boots deserves his title shot

    Nobody wants to see him rematch Spence and beat him half to death.

    And the WBO are finally going to do the right thing and strip a Charlo after the Clenelo fight so there will be no undisputed vs undisputed for Crawford unless he wants to move up to 68. The other sanctioning orgs (what's up, Mauricio?) need to do the same so all those belts at 154 are freed up because he won't have made a defence of any of his belts at 154 in bare minimum 20-21 months and that's assuming he would be ready to fight 3 or 4 months after the Cleneo fight.

    In a couple of weeks it will be 26 months since Jermallo last fought and defended his WBC belt at 160. It's not that I want to see them get stripped but you simply cannot not defend your title for close to or well over 2 years.

    See what happens? Charlo should have fought Tyszu and kept his belts, now they get broken up again and we'll probably never get the Charlo-Tyszu fight at all. SMDH

    Canelo being in the mix ruins is and boxing politics will cater to him having his way.
    We is he fighting the 154 champ to begin with. Go fight a supermiddleweight or give 175 another shot.
    Leave Charlo to fight vs Bud

    Greedy Belly should be fighting Usyk at HW

    Beterbiev and Eurasian King Bivol should be fighting each other at 175

    Clenelo should be fighting Benavidez at 168

    Jermallo should be fighting period at 160, against Janibek most probably

    Jermello should be fighting Eurasian King Tszyu at 154

    Crawford should be fighting Super Boots at 147

    Rougarou and Teofimo should be fighting each other at 140

    Female dog ass ho Haney should be rematching Loma at 135

    Can't be arsed going any lower

    There, I've just fixed boxing :deal:
