      Andrade vs Lara could also be a possibility.

        It makes sense both for Andrade & for HBO that they part ways. There was no options at 154 for Andrade at HBO. He wasn't going to get the Alvarez fight, nor Kirkland. All the top fighters at 154 are with Haymon. So unless Andrade was willing to step up to 160, for which he wanted unrealistic money, no point. Good move by both sides. Maybe Andrade builds some legacy for himself with Haymon (assuming he finally signs with Haymon).

        I'm thinking it'll be Jermall. He's less talented and more expendable. Jermell can fight for the IBF, and Haymon can have a tourney with Lara, Andrade, Trout, & Jermell. Then there's Julius Williams, Dominic Wade, Tony Harrison, Terrell Gausha, Willie Monroe, John Jackson, and Willie Nelson all in the Haymon house. Andrade also will have to make a mando sometime against Baysongurov.

          Maybe this means Showtime will start working with DiBella Entertainment, Goossen Promotions, Star Boxing, Banner Promotions, Warriors Boxing, Don King Productions & Mayweather Promotions since Haymon Boxing is moving to NBC Sports and Golden Boy is back with HBO. Showtime needs to focus on good up-and-coming fighters like they use to before they brought in Floyd, Haymon & Golden Boy into the fold.

            Put it at the StubHub! Center and that's a hell of a show to put on. I'd be all for it.

              Jermall is not ranked by WBO at 154 he is at 160 though at #3. Jermell is ranked #2 WBO.

                Uzecategui was ranked in top 10 at SMW by the WBO before he fought Korobov, then when they fought it was a eliminator for the 160 title. The WBO and other orgs routinely slide guys ranked in different weight classes into the rankings of another weight class for title fights.

                I just don't think Haymon risks the Charlo with the greater upside until both Jermell & Demetrius have more momentum behind them and make for a bigger fight. Jermall might already be close to his peak, give him a chance to pull the upset & win a title while cashing out his '0'.

                  why would he duck alvared? canela only looks good against brawlers. mayweather,trout,and lara had the guy frustrated and swinging wild like a amateur. andrade's style beats alvared.

                    You think they're gonna give Jermell the Molina/K9 winner? He's #2 at IBF also and Jermall is #6.
