Comments Thread For: Hearn: I Don't Know What Jermall Charlo Is Doing; Why Not Fight Demetrius Andrade?

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Eddie Hearn couldn't even remember the name of Jermall Charlo's upcoming opponent. And after Demetrius Andrade showed some vulnerability Saturday night, Hearn can't see any reason why the WBC middleweight champion shouldn't pursue a title unification fight against the unbeaten southpaw he promotes. Hearn said following Andrade's points victory over Liam Williams that an Andrade-Charlo fight doesn't need to be carried by DAZN, the streaming service with which Hearn's Matchroom Boxing is partnered.

Charlo fighting Montiel is great for the sport!

[Clegg]

He doesn't seem to like risk, the only time he was even close to a top MW is that time Jacobs stepped to him and he got nervous

[Beercules]

He doesn't want to fight anyone.

Indeed. Montiel is another fighter that’ll enhance Charlo’s legacy if he beats him.

Charlo is hoping to get GGG fight.

He obviously thinks that this is much less risky fight than fighting 33 old Andrade.

The same with welterweight situation, everybody still wants to fight 42 old Pacquiao.

I don't know what Charlo is doing either, except that he's trying get a big money Canelo fight, and no shame losing to Canelo. I'm not sure he thinks he can beat Andrade or Benavidez.

Definitely, hence why MMA is the biggest developing sport over there. I remembered the “If it makes dollars, it makes sense” motto by Mayweather. But now it’s not even about money anymore for these boxers. It has to fit their advisers business model first, if it doesn’t then they cannot even engage in any negotiations with you... I mean look at Terence Crawford as an example of a boxer that is being frozen out.

He isn’t in a position to get a Canelo fight until he moves up to 168 and win a belt or beat someone worth a mention.

So far he said he would fight Benavidez, once that fight got fans talking, she started feeling the pressure of it, then back down and talked about him rather fighting Boo Boo....

Then we all got our answers with Montell.
