Jermall Charlo & 154 division?

I don't care who you are if you take two or three years out of the ring it's bound to affect how good you could of been, he's still talented and in the grand scheme of things he looks the best at 154 off his nelson performance but I don't see him being the top dog because rather than leave the team he tried to rip off he re-signed with them.

 

The problem is his in Rigo mode, he's only chasing big fights but it's clear the rest aren't that keen on facing him. If I was managing him I would get him more fights with top 15 guys maybe the likes of Hatley, Jackson, Lubin, smith, Williams. Keep him active and facing good names eventually he will create the type of buzz that would force the top guys to face him.

 

Well I don't mind if he does coz it's clear he won't face Lara or his brother which leaves the division in a stalemate.

 

He did against nelson but he ruined it by not following up with another good fight soon. I'm still baffled as to why he didn't fight smith before Canelo did so he could get back his WBO belt, and why the hell is he tryna fight Culcay for a version of the fake WBA belt, it's bizarre handling of his career if you ask me.

 

I just saw a new post on the site that Lara vs Andrade is being discussed, with Andrade fighting Jackson as a tune up. lol maybe his team were checking out our convo, anyway if he they do get that match up made it would put him right in the picture again which is great for the 154 division.

 

Unfortunately I don't have a twitter account but the thread is on this forum, yeah it would be good to see how Andrade deals with an equally slick fighter.

 

I would pick Canelo over Charlo, I had williams outboxing Charlo comfortably except for whenever he was rocked he was beating him to the jab and countering well, unfortunately his chinny. Canelo loves facing guys who dont move he has a solid enough chin to take Charlos power and he is a good enough counter puncher that he can take advantage of Charlos aggression.

 

Yeah he's dimensions are very big for 154 but I guess that's genes what can you do. I hope he does move up if he isn't gunna fight a top 5 guy, a lot of the 154 guys are huge so 160 will fill up as soon guys see a weakness in GGG in the meantime we need the top 154 guys to get on rather than bide their time for a Canelo pay day.
