    Collazo or Charlo are both great choices. I chose Collazo because Charlo did what I expected him to do.

      Beating Victor Ortiz isn't a big deal.
      Beating Ortiz when the same fans who picked Charlo in this poll, and basically every other fan was predicting Collazo was going to get blown out in 3-4 rounds, is a huge statement.

      Charlo was a big question mark. I had no idea who to pick between Rosado and Charlo, I had suspected that because Charlo can't punch he was going to have to find a way to outbox Rosado. I just didn't know, I don't like picking a winner in a fight where I don't know the opposing prospect. In Ortiz-Collazo, I didn't even watch the fight because I was so sure Ortiz would blast out Collazo. I watched the entirety of Charlo-Rosado to see what Charlo had.

        I am picking Barthelemy regardless of the office mandated result, it was impressive in his 1st world title opportunity.

          I got Charlo, showed how good he is to a lot of people. Then Pascal for playing RJJ for a fight. Collazo hit Ortiz with one shot why is he getting so many votes lol

            I just don't understand why someone(Collazo) gets so much credit for beating the near bum in Ortiz.

            To me, it's between Huck and Charlo. Atleast Charlo got votes but it's a joke that the CW division continues to get no respect no matter what the case. P4P Huck would knock Ortiz' jaw clear through the roof.

              I actually thought Charlo would stop Rosado. Being that Charlo won, it was no real surprise to me.

              I thought Collazo would give Ortiz fits and that Ortiz would win a close decision. He obviously didn't, but considering this is Ortiz' 3rd consecutive TKO/KO, I can't give Collazo all the props.

              I went with Jennings

                Takam's performance was unexpected.

                He won some fans for sure, and he's now considered a HW contender.

                  I'm gonna go with Charlo. He boxed Rosado silly. My only criticism is he should've let his hands go more, and he could of got the knockout.
