Comments Thread For: Charlo: Not Much Left For Me at 154; I'm Not Afraid of Golovkin!

CONelo and De La Chocha

Are too scared to make a fight with GGG, at least Charlo isnt. Make it happen.

What? You missed the point. 3 of the top 5 jmw won't fight each other ever and they each have a title. Andrade as skilled as he is isn't avoiding Lara until he have no other choice. The 4th belt holder clearly doesn't want anything to do with the other belt holder. If that doesn't suck the I dont know what does. 154 is such a mess atm.

147 is a bit better but it took them a long time to get to this point. Everybody goal should try to be unifying the division. Too many paper champs in boxing.

2 of the top 5 are twin brothers, and 3 have the same trainer, yet PBC gave us 3 title fights in one night in May and we're getiing 2 title fights in one night tomorrow night. I think that's more than we can say from TR, GBP, or K2.

This talk sorta makes me want to see Charlo win but If he does move to 160 his first fight shouldn't be GGG it should be someone who is a solid fighter maybe outside the top 5 to top 15 to find a good opponent.

I'm divided on this I don't think Charlo is that good as his record makes him out to be and JRock is more likable.

These boys can box, both of them. He can outbox Golovkin rather easily I believe and Lara can too. Golovkin doesn't want any of these 3 guys.

Then when you get your wish come true and the fight happens...
The result would be something you would dislike with all three guys getting soundly beat so what would your excuse be?

Wasn't he saying he's not ready for 160 a few months ago? Charlos are OK. They failed to impress last time I saw them.

There are other fights I'd prefer for golovkin, such as bjs/alvarez/danny/ramirez. If those can't be made, I'd prefer he go after degale/jack winner. Only after that would I care if he fought charlo.

But to be honest, I don't think he's serious about this fight. Just name dropping PR

I cannot give an excuse for another mans defeat, as a fan I can however comment as I pleased in accordance to what is published and the matches I watch. Golovkin is skilled, but he has avoided the chance of being great..Ducked Froch, Ward, and arguably Lara as well...and the more i think about it, I believe canelo has a good shot to beat him.

How did he duck Ward when Ward was the one who said no to the fight in 2013, it's well documented you know?
Froch is retired and at the time of talking about the GGG fight he had finished with Groves, Froch decided to retire.
Lara another simple case of what Ward is doing talking a good game but when push comes to shove nothing happens neither are really wanting the fight just pretending, Kell Brook as much as I hate him he deserves way more credit that those two gigantic liars.

Hoping Jrock wins so the Lara unification is more likely. The fact that 3 of the bests fighters of the division (Charlos, and Lara) are related or were trained by the same trainer really ****** the life out of the division. But It looks like Jarmel fight with Lara could happen, if and Jrock wins, he could fight the winner of that fight.

EDIT: This looks like another case of a lazy journalist bringing up Golovkin out of nowhere for clickbait, and Jarmal simply answering the question. Then you get people claiming Jarmal brought up Golovkin hismself to promote the fight, and people going crazy over anyone daring to say they're willing to fight Golovkin.

What Charlo really said is that there are no meaningful fights that he can win at 154 that can make him money.

There is plenty of young and veteran talent at 154. He is just another pampered fighter. I hope J-Rock wins this one
