    I don't know who Demetrius Andrade is, but I'm confident he's not even that good. Americans always seem to overhype their fighters to the extreme. The only talents currently established in the pros as true elites are Ward and Crawford. Even GRJ must prove himself more. Jacobs looks elite but must prove it more. I haven't seen Charlo to judge whether he's elite.

    edit: I forgot this thread was about Charlo loool

    Jacobs isn't elite, lol. I have no idea where people are getting this from. He can't take a punch. He has power, but he can't take a hit and his boxing ability isn't that great so he's going to get hit a lot. It's like modern fans only pay attention to a fighters offense and neglect all of their defensive flaws. Jacobs was getting caught and buzzed by Mora. Mora, lol.

    In terms of his ability, he has shown elite talent. It's a completely different thing to prove you're elite.
    I haven't seen the Mora fight.

    He beats Mora and likely Quillin but I think Khurtsidze is too good.
