Do you respect Jermell Charlo based on his performance against Canelo on Saturday night?

    man no one even wanted the red head to fight charlo in the first place. it was a waste of time. and charlo did not come to win he didn't even come to fight. after all that talking he did! callum smith went the distance so you are wrong on that as well.

      He clearly didn't intend on fighting. Just showed up for a big purse to survive. This shows you what materials he's really made of.

          They didn't have any real game plan. Charlo had talked about Canelo having difficulty on a moving target. Heck, yeah, all fighters have. And so that was it. it's clear Charlo was more concerned on how to escape and last the distance, rather than how to fight fire with fire to win the fight.

          Reminds me of BJSaunders. His first request in the fight was to have a huge ring. Oh man, this guy is gonna run. He's ****** enough to think Canelo fights like Lemieux. He actually thought he became an overnight sensation in Montreal, Canada when the truth is Canadians puke about that boring performance of his; running, disengaging, and all that boring nonsense. Of course, the audience were rooting for their guy Lemieux, not him.​

          But at least he had a real game plan and a winning mentality, no matter what the manner in which to win.
