Comments Thread For: Jermell Charlo Says Bring on Terence Crawford Showdown

[Boxfan83]

Win or lose against Canelo, Jermell is taking a long break guaranteed.

Bud never said he needed a rematch if he lost. That was all Spence and his team.

Well if Bud had lost to Spence @ 147, then there would be no need for Charlo to fight him @ 154, especially if Bud didn't seek a rematch with Spence!

Something that’s impressive about pro fighters is their ability to attain a certain weight. Honestly, very few people have the self-discipline to do that.

I wouldn’t take anything Jermell says seriously. But let’s see what happens.

[Gary Coleman]

It's a mistake jumping around in weight like that at his age, but we'll see what happens.

Canelo might be the more difficult fight, not sure, as Crawford has more skill than Canelo. The size thing though.

It's also destroying the health & careers of many fighters too!

I personally would like to see weight cuts banned. ONE championship is IMO doing a good job showing how that could work, and enforcing it by making fighters who miss weight ineligible for the 50K performance bonus. Making weight is essentially a whole other sport, and I'd prefer they fight closer to their walking around weight and focus on their skills. If I wanted to watch people cutting weight, I'd watch something like bodybuilding competitions or CrossFit games or whatever.

Just a thought.. for next year

Spence vs Thurman after Spence denies the rematch clause; Crawford vs Tszyu for the vacant 154 WBO title.

Then, it'll be Thurman vs Crawford or Crawford vs Charlo or Tszyu vs Charlo OR Thurman vs Tszyu and Crawford vs Charlo.

Spence will fight Canelo. Plant will fight Jermall. Benavidez will fight Morrell Jr. Inoue will fight Nery. Bivol will fight Beterbiev. Tank will fight Haney at 140. Wilder will fight Usyk (Fury is mentally unstable).

Stevenson will fight Loma. Jared Anderson will fight Anthony Joshua. Katie and Amanda will run it back.

Wild.. if it happens..
