    Come up with better alts and better arguments. If there is a list of top 20 KD's this year. It won't make the cut lmao. Simple as that.

    Charlo is a certified badass. Great addition to the mix at 160. Glad he's mentioning the top dogs and hope and believe he is sincere in wanting those fights.

    I think Golovkin KOs him right now but time is against him.
    Jacobs would be a tough fight but with a introduction fight at 160 first, I feel Charlo could pull off the upset.
    Lemieux would be fairly easy work I feel and hope thats the fight we get soon(ish).
    BJS could prove a tricky opponent if he is on form, tough one to pick a winner.
    I feel he beats Canelo if he can coax him into the ring but I deem that pretty unlikely.
    A. Lee is a bit washed up and Charlo should KO him without much trouble.
    Khurtsidze is a bull but Jermall can use his length to pepper him from distance for a clear win.

    Jermall is probably top 5 at 160 in ability, possibly top 3. Will be rooting for him going forward and have a lot of confidence he will be a force for years to come in the post Golovkin landscape at Middleweight.

    Unrelated but what ever happened to M. Korobov?

    Cant wait for his debut fight (at middle)

    I hope he continues to look impressive, him vs the top middleweights are exciting matchups. Cant wait.

    The washed up Andy Lee took his soul.

    Charlo is good fighter and nice addition to the division. I actually think 160 is pretty solid division.
    Looking forward to some good fights.

    Some further thoughts:

    MW is now a good division with Charlo and Canelo moving up. Any division that has Charlo Canelo GGG Jacobs Lemiuex BJS is pretty good, and I didn't mention Eubank Jr or Derevychenko either (OK I did now).

    Here's how I assess Jermall Charlo's chances at MW, pretty subjective of course:
    - Canelo: I think Canelo is about as tough as Jermell and a good deal more skilled. So Canelo by UD. However, that is assuming that Canelo improves significantly by moving up, which I think he will. If it's the 154/155 version that had close fights with Trout & Lara and competitive with Cotto, then it's a toss-up, although if I have to pick I'll still take the better boxer (Canelo IMHO).
    - GGG: Charlo needs a fight or two first. He's got the physicality to compete for sure but Golovkin is more skilled at the moment. For example, how will Charlo get past Golovkin's jab? But if Golovkin continues to slow down while Charlo grows into 160, yeah, if they fight in 2018 it could be very interesting indeed.
    - Jacobs: I think this is another tough matchup for Charlo, I personally think Jacobs is just as quick and skilled as Charlo and somewhat bigger too. You've got to give Charlo a chance, he can crack Jacobs' chin potentially, but Jacobs is quite elusive and if I were Jermall's matchmaker I'd avoid this one. It's a similar level of risk to Canelo/Golovkin with far less reward.
    - BJS: I'd pick an in-shape and in-form BJS to outbox Charlo for at least most of the fight, Charlo could catch him at some point I suppose, but I wouldn't put money on it. The Akakov version surely loses to Charlo, and I have serious doubts as to whether BJS ever gets back into top shape again. We'll see.
    - Khurtsidze. Gets outboxed by Charlo. As long as Charlo concentrates he wins clearly and easily, a KO could well happen.
    - Lemiuex. This is the fight we all want to see. I don't know who to pick, but it has all the makings of an amazing fight. I'll probably lean to Charlo, I can't find any strong reason for either fighter but my gut says Charlo.
    - Heiland. Heiland is a solid MW, but Charlo is better physically and a better boxer. So Charlo, quite possibly by KO too.

    In any case, we should be in for some very interesting fights here!

    Apologies if said already but yes I think they have the frame to settle into 160, but will their power carry up,

    Notwithstanding recent events seems like I've sat through a lot of 12 round Carlo fights with junior middleweights

    Why is everyone leaving out Lee when they discuss the division. Lee is damn good fighter. Hope he gets one two more fights before he retires.
    Anyway Ggg, Canelo, charlo, Lemieux, lee, Jacobs, etc good division

    So what I hear you saying is that Charlo is in the B class at 160.

    I think that he will be a force post or present GGG.
