Comments Thread For: Charlo: I'm Going Back Down To 154; Make The Weight Easy; If Tszyu Next, Then I'm On It

[dan-b]

Who are his 3 other mandatories? He's still got 3 belts to defend, right? Why are those other mandatories not being brought up? Why force him to fight Tzsyu when he hates that fight?

Hasn't the IBF mandatory been waiting for years? Assume that's next if he wants to keep the belt.

Then there's WBA and WBC, which will take many years for a guy who only fights once in a year.

I see Jermell getting some Hate but just because he lost to this generation greatest doesn't mean he has nothing left.

Jermell will lay Tazoo out cold and arguably beat anyone else at 154

...and if he doesn't, the excuse will be that Jermell didn't drop the weight well. Jermell vs. Tszyu/Mendoza should be the next match-up, nothing else.

Would rather see Mell try his hand at 160.

Amazing how big dude like charlo consistently been making 154 for years now, he would need to make a real statement against the winner of tim-mendoza to make it up for last weekend perfomance.

The weight jump is no excuse for how poor he performed againts Canelo.

Does anybody really believe that Charlo weighs anywhere close to 154 come fight nights?

I'm sure when he is training he is also nowhere near 154 before he starts to cut the weight.
This guy will easily rehydrate to 170 for all his 154 fights where he is a weight bully.
Only difference is he didn't have to dehydrate or cut for 168 vs Canelo.

I just don't buy the whole "I deff felt the weight jump" excuse!

“I just follow the plans and fight whoever.” The "plan" was always to lose to Canelo and move back down.

I don't have any faith in Sue. Even after that crappy performance by Charlo, it was against Canelo. Sue is working the rubes in the outback and he's not making any noise on the world stage. Tim has to lure people into the bushes to do his tricks. The lights are too bright in Las Vegas or the UK.

You sound like u hold Charlo jock strap

Canelo couldn't ko him, no ones saying much about that,

[BlackRobb]

But his boxing is pretty ordinary, what is his chin like?

Mendoza has been in with Ramos, Fundora and Rosario. His chin is quite sturdy.
