There are a ton of boxing fans that seem to think that Charlo can hang with Canelo. I'm asking an honest question. What skill set does Charlo possess that ensures a victory over Canelo? I don't see the workrate necessary to beat Canelo. Canelo's combo punching and defense seem to be his best assets besides his chin.
So, how does Charlo beat him? Cause the ko isn't on the table in my view.
Charlo is athletic, fast, a good puncher with counterpunching skills.
This fight if it ever happens will be fought at a slow pace. Charlo has an excellent jab and will be a handful for Canelo unless Charlo's chin is weak.
No way in hell Trout won that fight.
In all those fights that you are talking about, Canelo outlanded his rivals in powerpunches.
GGG only had two élite fighters and he could not be super dominant against them.
That's normal in the highest level in this sport.
Charlo is a very good fighter but you are overrating him
You actually made my point. I'm not saying struggling vs other elite fighters is a bad thing because it's not. Just that to expect Canelo to dominate Charlo and stop him is unlikely when he hasn't done that to other elite fighters. I'm not dogging Canelo here at all, stating facts.
Canelo out landed Trout in power punches by one and got out landed in jabs by over 30. Doesn't mean he lost the fight but it's not like he was landing so many more power shots then him either.
I believe Canelo vs Charlo will be competitive. As I believe Canelo vs Jacobs will be competitive.
Canelo was actually 22 vs Trout I believe, but most disagree with you when saying he won clear. I had Canelo winning 7-5 +KD so I consider it a clear win but there were those that had it 6-6 or even 7-5 Trout.
Canelo can definitely beat Charlo, I never said otherwise. Canelo is a beast, but what I have said isn't false. His fights vs top guys are always competitive for the most part, and also controversial. He doesn't get clear cut wins and doesn't stop them. Charlo isn't as skillful as Canelo, but his chin is getting severely underrated here. He wouldn't get stopped by GGG, let alone Canelo. That was the main thing about my post.

Canelo won clearly against Trout, and he was like 23.
He is getting better and better with each fight.
Plus, Canelo did a very solid job in the rematch against GGG.
For sure, he is a way better fighter than Charlo, only the long jab of Charlo is better, but nothing that Canelo can't handle

Canelo isn't knocking him out. There hasn't been one top level fighter that he has dominated or knocked out. Wasn't close to stopping Lara/Trout/GGG/Cotto/Floyd and he damn sure isn't knocking out a big guy like Charlo.
Canelo is the smoother of the two, but Charlo has a killer jab and will be able to compete with him in close quarters. That is where Canelo is lethal, but Charlo simply doesn't panic in the line of fire and is able to land his big shots. A mover is what gives Charlo some issues, but Canelo isn't that type of guy. This will be a close fight as will Canelo vs Jacobs. There is nothing we have seen from Canelo against top level guys to think he will dominate any of them. Only one he has dominated or come close to dominating was Cotto. Every other fight has been competitive.

everybody and their momma was knocking down trout prior to that fight, but charlo went life and death and couldnt drop him...
a much younger and lesser version of canelo shattered that chin of a prime undefeated version of trout, everyone after that had him doing the bambi legs...
not saying canelo stops charlo but he definitely beats him imho...
but should be a good fight that really needs to happen down the road.. i will preffer jacobs first cuz i think he deserves it...
Will Canelo beat Charlo? Possibly, he will be the favorite for sure.
But Trout fought well vs Charlo. He looked good the few fights prior to Charlo but he was definitely shook up a bit from the Lara fight. He competed very well with Canelo got Lara just out classed him and dropped him late in the fight.
E
There is a such thing as a shot version of Trout? Looked just fine over a year later vs Hurd and then even later vs other Charlo.
Again though, it is a fact that Canelo hasn't come close to stopping any top level fighter. All fights except Cotto were close, and even to some that was close. Highly highly highly unlikely he stops Charlo. Better chance he stops Jacobs.

charlo showed to be on the same level of a shot version of Trout...

I'd say so. I mean Trout and Lara are and Charlo is on that level at the very least.
Like I don't think people realize how good Charlo's chin is. Just watch the JRock fight where he ate CLEAN shots from a sharpshooter and didn't even blink. He's extremely strong and has a wicked chin. You could out skill him as he isn't the hardest to hit, but Canelo stopping him? Not happening.
But let's hope the WBC orders this fight soon and we get to see it.

Is Charlo a top level fighter though??
