Comments Thread For: Showtime's Espinoza: I Still Think It's Very Possible Jermall Charlo-Benavidez Happens Next

[FLY TY]

More interested in seeing Charlo-ggg...

If Charlo has haters, and he does, it’s merely because he didn’t sign with Edward Hearn and go to dayzin. If he did certain demographics wouldn’t criticise him anymore but he’d be forgotten and not cared about like Andrade is

"if Charlo can't unify against Golovkin or Andrade"?!

Golovkin doesn't seem to want the work but Andrade and Hearn have been calling for that fight, and said it can happen on Showtime, haven't they?

If any of them (Charlo, Andrade, Golovkin) want Canelo then, at some point, they're gonna have to go to 168 and get in line. The quickest route to the Canelo golden ticket might be through Benevidez.

[Nightfall]

why not. clenelo doesn't want that smoke from neither guy so why not. Charlo has to move up and fat boy needs to make his own weight and get a belt.

I love how Espinoza explained how the "timing wasn't right" for them to fight this summer. Charlo fought 7 months ago and Benavidez just fought last month...so, yeah, David isn't gonna knock off any lbs that quickly to turn around and face Charlo.

Speaking of timing, I just knew we were gonna get Haney/Garcia (being that Devin is scheduled to fight next month and Ryan was set to fight in early July (I believe), so the timing was actually "right" being that they're practically fighting 6 weeks apart from one another.

If more boxing fans understood this, then frustration wouldn't be at an all-time high. These guys are established in the sport so I don't see them taking fights at such quick turnarounds, especially Benavidez who has shown us that he's struggled to make weight a time or two.

I agree with you. But Charlo obviously doesn`t want to fight Canelo.

Charlo looked shot in Korobov fight. Imagine what can Canelo do to him?

To be honest, i don`t think Charlo has a chance to win.

Canelo can do nothing to Charlo.

People said the same thing about Derevyanchenko. If Koborov gave him such a tough time then he doesn't stand a chance against Derevyanchenko.

Remember that?

Charlo beat Derevyanchenko easy though, like I told you fools.

Charlo is weak against the soutbpaw style, but an orthodox fighter plays right into his hands.

Sorry but the race card won't work here. I'm black too (South African actually) but I call bs ont his statement.

Is he hated for being black? Sure, that's obviously, but that doesn't mean we must use the race card to ignore the fact that he ducked Jacobs, Andrade, and Benevidez.

Those were clear and blatant ducks.

Jermall has immense talent, but he is a mental midget. Guy is a puzzy man, plain and simple.

Jermell on the other hand js a beast. That guy don't duck no smoke. He will fight anyone and aint ducking from no challenge.

[-DSG-]

Charlo will fight Lara next.

Jermall has immense talent, but he is a mental midget. .

That is why he can`t beat Canelo.

He doesn`t even believe he can beat him.

I'm not sure if Charlo is keen on fighting Benavidez. He has some chance of possibly winning against him and Andrade, so why not take the fight? The in-house matchmaking at PBC is quite annoying, because even top guys with the same company don't want to fight each other, or one side doesn't want to.
