    Jermall and Jermell Charlo, Demetrius Andrade, Julian Williams. All these guys are HUGE for 154. All are 6 ft tall. All have long reach. All are undefeated as of now.

    They should move to 160 now and start gunning for GGGs belts.

    None of them are good enough to beat GGG, some of those would struggle with BJS and Eubank

    Nah.... They can stay in the division as long as they can make the weight. They don't need to move up.... I mean Hagler never moved up! Lol

    Williams is 5'11", though he does have a long reach.

    That said, yeah, I think they would be welcome additions to the 160lb division.

    This I agree with. They are all wasting away wishing that the other guys name was big enough for them to make money on all the while not fighting or promoting themselves as the next big thing in boxing. Like 147, 154 guys were standing around waiting for Mayweather and now they are waiting for Canelo, who is never gonna fight another threat to him as long as he lives.

    If I were any of these guys I would move up and fight a few times at 160 get accustom and call out the main guy. Its the biggest money fight between the 2 divisions. GGG is the cash guy that is willing to give these guys a chance. Canelo is fighting the weakest guys possible.

    They should pound on Brook first.

    Just me who thinks 154lbs is really weak? The Charlos both look meh, Andrade is so inactive he makes Cermeno look busy, Lara is so frustrating that he's essentially wasting any chance to become a star, Williams is pretty good but I'm waiting to see him really put on a wow performance

    Yes and no. Yes, they can stay at 154 if they are going to actually fight each other and quit wishing for quick paydays. No, if they are looking for a big payday the only guy there is Canelo and he is trying to fight all of 147 on some literal ****, Canelo is scared to death of "REAL 154" fighters. Might as well use the little name that they have and chase the big dog. If its money they seek.

    While I agree Canelo is avoiding them, I'm not sure Fable Sanchez would let GGG fight them either. He keeps pvssying away from Lara. They are all more of a threat than Lara.

    A 160 ducking fighter that fights at 154 is a giant for the division.

    Maybe they should gun for the belts in their own division first?

    I like Demetrius Andrade the best. That guy has got some tasty ring craft. He clowns Nelo- ill tell ya that for free.
