    “When we compare opposition, has his opposition been anywhere close to our opposition? Absolutely not. So, I can’t even look at him like he’s done anything in boxing."

    Hard words, but I can understand the frustration. Not really a fan of Charlo's antics myself, but can't say the man has ever ducked anybody. Not once.

    Crawford is 4 months away from wasting his entire prime.

    Charlo won't fight him until Crawford fights Spence. Which I agree with. Deal with guys you're own size first before taking on bigger guys.

    Only after he fights Spence first.

    Sounds like the words of a man who was asked about a fight with Crawford and didn’t fancy the idea.

    Spence should beat Crawford. Younger, bigger, stronger. But I do not think he is as dedicated or disciplined as Crawford is. You have to really live the life and Crawford does.

    @tinman I am impressed. I didn't know you could predict when a fighter's prime ended.

    I like Mell
    I think he wins a 9th round TKO vs Castaño
    & I hope he gets the Crawford fight next.
    I wouldn’t be mad if he got it before Spence.

    I would have him over Spence & Crawford in pound for pound if he KOs Castaño anyway.

    If Spence and Crawford keep ducking each other its the next best thing

    Honestly i dont really care to keep waiting for that fight and would be happy if they got this fight done for the fall
