    I'm saying that Kovalev and Smith have accomplished more in their careers than Jermall Charlo.

      The idea that Charlo has nothing left to prove is BS, it's an entitled attitude.
      LOL, who did Smith beat in the WBSS? And what did he do prior to the Canelo fight?

      Stop trying to turn this into something its not. Canelo is THAT dude but this notion Charlo needs to "earn" a fight with him is laughable. No one will complain one bit if Canelo was to fight Charlo next. I am all for Charlo fighting Benavidez like I mentioned earlier as well as other top guys. My dream fight is Charlo vs GGG. That's the one every fan should be calling for as long as both are fighting at 160.

      Last thing on "earning" a fight with Canelo. Plant is likely getting the fight next and he's another guy that has done dog sh^t, especially as of late.

        Because he's a shadow of his former self. His prime was wasted by rapacious management companies and by being the lost ****ed fighter ever. Quillin, Martinez, Chavez Jnr, Cotton, Barker and Canelo all swerved him in his prime. Probably some others I'm forgetting. Shame really, he was ATG material

          The WBSS was a tournament involving top ranked guys at the weight. Braehmer, Eubank, Groves, Smith, even Yildirim.

          The notion that Charlo can just sit back and cruise until Canelo comes calling is what's laughable, I guarantee the fans are going to get on his ass if he does that. And he will deserve it.

            I have no idea why people think that, he does not even have any clear decisive losses.

              Beterbiev, Bivol, Ramirez, Plant, Benevides, ggg, Charlo, and Andrade are all more of a challenge than Kovalev, Yildrim, BJS, Smith, and Fielding.

                Like you're getting on Canelo's asz for fighting Yildrim?

                  No, it’s clear canelo didn’t want the 3rd fight...even after waiting for him to age further , as has been his mo. Ggg should retire imo. These so called young fighters have been doing nothing but talk, Andrade especially.

                    Why are you mentioning light heavyweights? Canelo fights at 168.

                    Why would I get on his ass? He had to agree to fight Yildirim as a condition for getting the Callum Smith fight. At least he took care of that mando quickly, one month after beating Smith.

                    And he's already on to the next, challenging for the WBO belt.

                    What's Charlo doing in the meantime?

                      Cool, so GGG shouldn't fight anybody. Good convo...
