Comments Thread For: Jermell Charlo: Tim Tszyu Was My Challenger But He Does Nothing For My Career, Still Needs To Build Himself Up

[JLC]

Crawford vs. Charlo is BIGGER than Crawford vs. Boots! No one would be saying Crawford is ducking Boots, if he had an offer to fight Charlo, for Undisputed @ 154!

Facts.

Same w Charlo v Canelo. You can’t say a fighter is ducking when he moves up to face a better fighter for more money and more on the line.

I don't think Jermell is going to want to face Crawford. I don't think that will end well for him.

win or lose vs Canelo, I have a hard time believing Charlo will come back to 154. We've all seen what happens when a fighter moves up, and then back down.

Roy Jones Jr….

Styles make fights and Charlo’s speed, movement, and accurate punching stylise for more for success against Crawford than Spence. But moot point, Jermell isn’t moving back to light middle

He was getting ready to fight Tim Tszyu since it had been ordered to happen by September 30.

The Canelo fight came along and obviously that takes priority as it will be a much bigger payday. And no sensible person can blame Jermell for choosing that option instead.

I’m not blaming Jermell at all, we’d all do the same. I was pointing out that after Tim’s fight last month Charlo claimed his hand was still hurt, and last night he said he’d been in the gym months

It sucks for Tim that this shot at Undisputed goes away but you can't blame Jermell for taking the huge money fight and the gamble. If he manages to beat Canelo he can write his own ticket. Even looking good raises his profile.Who wouldn't take that deal ? I would in a heartbeat. Tim can still pick up the belts , it just got exponentially more difficult though, especially considering that Crawford and Spence are going to be moving up.
I hope that " The Slap" woke Jermall up. Whatever caused it , Plant sure was pissed off.

Canelo-Charlo is actually a helluva fight, better than Crawford-Spence, with all respect to the big fight they had.

Jermell...is that you ?

The brain damage Charlo will sustain from Canelo beating will do wonders for his career and health.

Translation. Thank god i didn't fight tim.

Both Charlo boys, Spence and James had been saying the same things about Terence 'Bud' Crawford.

And the world saw what happened to Spence, and the same fate is waiting for both Charlo boys, when PBC and Hayman can't protect them any more with in house cherries and soft torches
