Comments Thread For: Jermall Charlo Hoping He Faces Benavidez vs. Plant Winner

[Rebelrbg]

This poodle barked about David last year, then got hit up by him and stfu. All of a sudden he wants it again? Im thinking olboy is bipolar. Why not try n unify or become undisputed at 160? And how tf does the 'bc allow him to keep their belt when he aint fought in 18 months?
does gordo jr love ******** too?

He's been trying to unify but GGG has been ducking him for years. We will see his next move after his fight in February, especially since Janibek has a belt and called him out.

You would’ve thought he wanted to fight Benavidez after he called him a P___y in his post fight interview in front of the whole boxing world. But he kept quiet and now he wants to fight. Sure

Charlo knows damned well he does NOT wanna fight David Benavidez. Even Stevie Wonder can see that BS a mile away

[mxtali]

So what is Charlo going to do between now and late 2033?!

he’ll announce a tune up against a can, after plant vs benavidez, which will put any potential fight Late 2023, early 2024.

Fair enough, than earn it, Fight Demetrius Andrade on the same card as the co-main event, out shine Plant and Benevidez. Or just keep shouting at the wind on social media....I want Canelo, I want Bivol, I want 168 leftovers. Nobody cares what you want we only care about what you do. And lately you haven't done much.

WHATEVER!!! Benavidez been calling Jermall out for almost 2 years! Now that he's fighting Plant, suddenly you want the winner? WHATEVER!!!

He'll probably fight Munguia @ 168! I think they'll revisit that fight! Oscar has to get Munguia a REAL fight! Charlo needs a REAL fight!!! PBC and DAZN seem to understand what needs to happen!

Let's go Jermall, time to shut up all the hate!!! I told you, they're all on Showtime now, and will be fighting each other for mandatory spots and championship fights, starting with Benavidez and Plant; then Charlo, Morrell, and Andrade.

PBC and Showtime were/are always one in the same so theyve always been on "Showtime" so not sure how that has any more meaning on getting fights made than before? Even apart,both entity's have had the budget to make Plant vs Benavidez and or Charlo long ago but it's taken what 3-4yrs just to make that one and **** still ain't even signed? If and when that comes off Charlo will still ask for a tune-up for tune-up for a tune-up to acclimate to 168 pushing the possibility of any meaningful fight until 2024. Andrade is Andrade and Morrells team don't want him anywhere near Benavidez yet. Don't mind the optimism but the track record of all party's/fighters involved foretell a different story unfolding.

Jermall Charlo took the waiting game to a whole new level. He can't even take a stay-busy fight while waiting. He developed a phobia since the Montiel fight, it seems... And assuming everything would turn out smoothly, ie, all three of them would not incur injuries, mishaps, family issues, brush with the law, etc., in and out of the ring along the way, it would still take 3 months minimum before any negotiations take place. And the Plant/Benavidez doesn't even have a date yet!

When was Jermall's last fight? June 19, 2021. Which means his last and next fights would be more than 2 years apart. And that's assuming the Bena/Plant winner would come back to the ring early and healthy. (What if something goes wrong? He'll continue waiting?) That's just a lot of waiting to do.

Have you seen such phobia before in boxing like this? It's unbelievable.

Sounds like Charlo moving up. Did wonder if that was gonna happen when the WBC were saying the Eubank - Smith fight could be an eliminator
