    What has happened to the Charlo brothers?

    They're supposed to be active fighting in the higher weight divisions.

    It would seem they have lost all sense of purpose in the boxing career they chose to be in.

    I think it all goes to boxing being a different sport where losing is so huge a deal.

    Tank Davis himself admitted worrying about getting embarrassed losing.

          Al Haymon was the master of secure paydays for easy fights

            Too much money young. If you're an oncologist, how motivated are you to work the drive through?

                Being "rich" is a relative, subjective term. Canelo got prime real estate properties in Mexico and America, and can retire without having to box again. Yet he's still fighting.

                The Charlos barely scratched the surface in accumulating wealth out of their boxing profession. They have kids to feed, send to school till they become independent. Not to mention the money they need in their old age. Needs are unlimited. Resources are not.

                  Haymon's free money for patsy opponents failed to build them into moneymaking stars. No demand to see them in any more in phony set up skits. And they don't have what it takes to beat any elites. Like Tank, Danny Garcia, Wilder, Broner, and Haymon himself, they know they're finished.

                    No demand to see them and they are afraid of elites like Tim Tszyu. They're done.
