Comments Thread For: Jermell Charlo on David Benavidez: He's Not a Real 168-Pounder, Needs to Fight at Cruiserweight

[4truth]

Charlo begging for a fight with a guy who is fighting at LHW next but 168 pound Benevidez is too big and scary. Sad stuff.

That sounds exactly like the coochhie shyt tainted meat Alvared tried to do the Charlo and then the coward still ducked to fight Bivol for less

Bivol is the superior fighter you dumbass. Canelo would be taking a set backwards fighting that sh.it stain Charla sister.

I don't get it. He can either make weight or he can't. Period.

And yes I'm all for same day weigh ins or even weighing in before the fight so you're actually fighting in the weight class you actually are. But until the rules change...

It’ll never happen, “ Charlo vs Benavides, that’s what’s being said between the lines, that would’ve been a good fight, but as fear continues to increase, Charlo won’t take a chance.

[Silence]

Bumavidez is natural 175 lber. He is drained at 168 and barely makes the weight. I don't know why most fighters choose to drain themselves asf. Fight in your best weight.

its his brother talking, not him read the article

He's clearly being a mouth piece for Jermall who doesn't want to go anywhere near Beni. He's not gonna come out and say it himself, he's gotta keep that "lion" nonsense going when he is clearly a lamb.

So Canelo and GGG aside, who represents a big fight for Charlo now that Munguia fight fell through, no interest in David and he never had any interest of unifying at 160lbs with Andrade?

Make it make sense! Boxing sometimes...

Based on his assessment. Canelo should be 140.
“Weight bully”. Hilarious. If Benividas can make that weight. THATS HIS WEIGHT. Everything else is just an excuse. Charlos are tall, rangy fighters. They look like skeletons at weight ins. They should be fighting in heavier weight classes.
Enough with the excuses. Retire already. Tired of hearing the same lame excuses.

He has the canelo fight he can realistically get in the next 18 months , i dont see david moving up until after that fight. Thats a easy 10 mill for david to get that winnable fight.

as longbas he can male 168 and canelo aint ducking , he has every right to fight the weight.

charlo needs to step up or shut up
