    Charlo is a winnable fight for tzyu. I think hes gonna be chasing charlo all night. Neither guy is ready for crawford at any weight.

    Terence could also beat Canelo right??... Terence starts to lose when he steps forward at 154 pounds and he will be knocked out if he fights Canelo

    Charlo beats him. He has better reach, better speed, solid durability after showing he could eat body shots from Canelo, can fight under pressure, able to adjust his game plan and can fight well on the inside.

    I don’t see what’s so special about Tszyu. I don’t think he’s bad, but like some others have said he seems like a poor man’s version of GGG and is very basic.

    If he gives away half the rounds like he did last night he can’t beat Charlo. Charlo is not going to stand in the pocket so this might be an easier win for Charlo on the cards than we expect.

    If Charlo attempts to fight with Tim then this is a different fight and outcome. Right now I truly think Charlo will dance around and win on points

    Tszyu was able to use his footwork to evade Mendoza's in rush attacks all fight. He backs up pretty fast. Good balance, will need to learn the art of cutting off the ring better. Solid B+ fighter, with great potential to rise higher. Better opposition like Charlo and Crawford will get him to A status if he wins.

    I can imagine this happening, but I'm still pissed at the Charlito for his participation in the theft of my 90 dollars. If the fight is made, I'll be rooting for the young Tszyu to administer an ass whupping followed by a brutal KO. Maybe with an uppercut. Yes. That would be quite satisfying.

    No way I'm buying a PPV of it, however.

    A poor man’s version of GGG already beat Charlo, his name is Canelo.

    Tim ‘Tony Harrison’s’ the Houston Hare

    You have only yourself to blame for the theft of your $90, you bought into the hype.

    Charlo is overrated and I think he would get outworked by Tszyu to a points loss.

    I'd rather see Tszyu fight Crawford. I think Crawford pieces him up, but I think it would be more entertaining than Tszyu-Charlo. And Timmy does have the proverbial puncher's chance.

    Go find a post of mine where I'm psyched for that fight. Meh. It was a Saturday night and I'm a ***** for boxing. At this rate, these guys might yet make a maiden of me, however. Both fighters were disappointing, though the terrified herbivore Charlito much more so.

    Charlo is a good fight for tzyu. He better stay away from crawford for atleast another year or two.

    Yeah, Crawford might be a bridge too far at this point. But, it would be a good gauge of how far Tszyu needs to go, if at all. I think he has the mentality and support to go pretty far. I don't see Crawford putting a one sided beat down, ala Spence on Tim at this stage.

    Really a close fight at this point. Tim is on the rise and Charlo the decline. I favor Tim because of his power.
