    If he doesn't step up his competition he isn't going to get a canelo fight at all! Canelo doesn't want his 160 title and what else does Charlo actually being to the table? What's the selling point here? Ppv sales will be off canelo not him soo not a lot of incentive for canelo to make a fight with Charlo tbh.

      I like charlo he was top dog at 154 and I was impressed with his win over dervychenko but that win hasn’t aged particularly well and montiel and sulekij suck. Plant benevidez andrade mungia(who just ducked) David morrell…hell I’d even like to see charlo vs Liam Williams or something. All these dudes sitting around waiting for canelo is just terrible

        Jermall Charlo looked terrible speaking with Mike Tyson. He spoke to being a sports entertainer whose concern is marketing. Bad look when you are talking to a legendary fighter. That marketing mentality will cost him and Espinosa millions.

          Next best thing Sulecki? Yoh. Respect to all fighters, true courage and heart. This fight though, Charlo-Sulecki, awful.

            This fight sucks. And that's two straight fights from Charlo with unremarkable opposition (even though Montiel went on to actually give him a tough time.)

            As a boxing fan, right now Jermall isn't moving the needle for me.

              Charlo needs to fight someone half decent.

              End of story.

                I'm perfectly fine with Canelo being P4P #1......But I'm respecting him less every time he selects a handpicked opponent.

                  They really messed up the optics with this one.

                  When Munguia bitched out, Charlo was looking good for trying to make the fight - I was convinced this was gonna be the time that he took a good fight regardless. They have a highly respect name in Lara sitting there on the pine, thought for sure they would at least MENTION him. F*** man I'm trying to get behind these guys but it's so difficult to get truly excited

                    Nobody wants Canelo Charlo. Charlo keeps fighting nobodies and the hypocrite calling selucki the next best thing? I'm hoping Canelo doesn't give charlo a pay day. Boxers cannot be sitting down fighting nobodies while waiting their entire career to fight Canelo. This dude passed up 7 million to fight Andrade. Everyone wanted Canelo benavidez not charlo

                      Canelo is not the only fighter Charlo can fight. You could have at least made Charlo vs Lara.

                      Let's just hope this Sulecki fight would turn into a massive cherrypick-gone-wrong spectacle.
