Comments Thread For: Jermell Charlo Wasn't Surprised To Get Canelo Fight: 'I Knew It Would Manifest, I Want All The Smoke'

Money instead of honor. And they dare talk about legacy... This is the world we live in.

I agree that's what modern day boxing has become.

I don't think Mell can handle Canelo's power.
He got rocked pretty badly several times against Castano the first fight and Canelo is a way bigger puncher than Castano who barely has a 50% KO ratio.

Don't underestimate Jermell in this fight. If he comes in moving side to side, boxes, uses his jab with a steady right hand behind it then he can pull off an upset. Canelo was not a career super middleweight but a fighter who got tired of losing weight down to the 154 weight division. If Charlo comes in at 165-166 lbs which is 10lbs above his normal weight division then he will be fine. He probably walks around at 180 lbs when he isn't in training. Charlo has to commit to not standing there and trading with Canelo as he typically has done in previous fight. If he does, then it will be a short night for him because Canelo can crack, it will give him that.

Canelo should win but it isn't a guarantee.

Charlo is a very good boxer and the size and weight would not be a factor, because Canelo is not bigger than him and he started in 154.

The thing is canelo is not ordinary like Spence, he out pressure with smart, his speed is very good, and has power in both hands.

Charlo was not able to defend of Castaño offensive that is not near of canelo offensive.

But is a great fight despite what haters say, charlo is not a easy night for anyone.

managed to use "manifest" and "smoke" in the same sentence. I hope he gets KTFO for his ******edness

I quite sure he would laugh at a statement like that coming from someone who is a prideful el***

It's called prize fighting. Boxers fight for money, dummy.

if he wins it does it does a lot more for his legacy than Tim Tszyu who he wouldn't get credit for beatng anyway. He's the undisputed chsmpuon. That's legacy.

Well put sir!

When Jermell says "Smoke" he means money. He's getting smoked by Canelo though.

The one thing that Charlo can look at, that gives him a bit of a chance, is that Canelo is on the slide somewhat. Canelo is still one of the best, no doubt, but he's not as sharp as he was.

He knew 'Nelo's money fest would manifest.

If you know anything about boxing, you know he has absolutely no chance against Canelo, and you also know he ducked Tim because he knew he was going to lose. And if you call it prize fighting, stop talking about legacy. And please stay polite, pathetic keyboard warrior.

So the injury excuse had all been a hoax. What a scam.
