    Charlo stunk up the ring. Never really trying to engage, only wanted to survive. Very difficult to ko someone in survival mode.

    Charlo is a weight bully and he fought like a total coward just trying to survive.

    Canelo almost passed out making weight for Jacobs and had tot ake some pill(salt?) immediately after getting off the scale.
    Canelo is very dense, similar to duran who somehow, inexplicably started struggling to make even 160.

    Anyway charlo didnt fight to win or would have been stopped.

    To be fair, Haney essentially forged an entire career out of doing this but it's actually even worse because he was also fighting opponents who were naturally 3 or 4 divisions smaller than him who were literally dragged out of care homes and graveyards

    Also to be fair, Jermello is really a MW fighting at LMW and Jermallo who is the twin Clenelo actually fought after they pulled the switcheroo is a HW these days so truth be told Clenelo was actually the much smaller man in there
