    I don't get it .I really Don't see the threat he poses. If Jacobs GGG and canelo are real about it why don't they fight him . Heck BJS is on suspension at the moment when he's back why doesn't he fight jermall . BJS is willing to fight andrade but not willing to jermall ?. How is jermall Charlo supoosup to fight any of the top guys if no one agrees to get in the ring with him . Heck at this point I'm starting to think no one at the middleweight division wants that she hell not even Derevyanchenko wants smoke with jermall everyone ducking . Canelo, Andrade ,Jacobs, GGG ,Derecy Derevyanchenko,BJS .even lemieux. Don't say he hasn't earned his shot he is the wbc mandatory since July of 2017. Nobody wants that smoke .

    Probably because the Charlo's don't bring much money with them. If he brought as much as Canelo people would be falling all over themselves to get a crack. Best thing the twins can do is fight much more often, get that exposure and they'll get the big fights. I wouldn't mind seeing the Charlos on a year long bum-crushing tour.

    Nobody wants Charlo because nobody cares about Charlo. What does he offer? Nothing is the answer. The top middleweights want to battle it out with each other for bragging rights, for titles, for money. Charlo offers none of those things.

    The other big thing is that nobody wants to blink first. The top middleweights want somebody good to fight him first before taking him on, just so they can see what they are facing. Because in all honesty, we've only seen glimpses of Charlo. We haven't seen him against a good, young fighter. If you don't know what level you are facing, you won't want to face it. We all assume he is a bum, but we can't be 100% certain yet.

    Then you've got the judging factor that comes with Al Haymon's lot. Do they really want to take the risk of being robbed in exchange for no titles, no bragging rights and limited money? It makes no sense.

    Probably because 36 year old and inactive Korobov took that "smoke" and boxed his tits off.

    I wonder if Jermall's team has even reached out to anyone. Seems they are all talk, claiming they are ducked while not even trying to make any fights.

    looking at the Jermall vs Korobov scorecards, I don't really blame them if they do.

    You should put up the money to make the fight. And then count your losses on the way to bankruptcy court. Then you will know why everyone is “ducking” Jermall.

    ggg needs an opponent for May. GGG probably end up fighting Munguia or Josesito Lopez meanwhile Charlo hounding GGG

    He allows them to duck him so whilst he doesn’t mind neither do i. Not to mention he owes Korobov a rematch coz he got a fortunate decision in my opinion and I’m a Jermall fan. I think he beats GGG, him and Jacobs is a 50-50 (I lean slightly to Jacobs) and Canelo beats him.
