Comments Thread For: Schaefer: Charlo is New Sheriff at 154, De La Hoya Won't Up Canelo

And how do you think the punches Brook landed would affect GGG if Charlo was the one throwing them?

I don't know. Brook and Charlo look to be about the same size, which is crazy because Charlo was fighting a Jr. MW fight. I figure it will be the same outcome. That's why I want to see Charlo vs. Brook ASAP! That will tell me a lot about Charlo. I think Brook should go to 154, and if he beat Charlo, then Charlo should stay @ 154. If he can't beat Brook, then he definitely can't **** with GGG. If I am Haymon, I want Brook, Cotto, or Andrade (in order of priority) next!

But didn't tripple hype say that he's a fighter and not a business man?

That **** ended when he fought a welterweight!

who were the 2 best in the division? I assume 2 is Lara, and "beat" is a generous word when most saw him losing that fight. Either way, Charlo is better than Canelo's last 2 opponents combined so there's really no excuse to avoid him. Other than fear.

And I had Trout/Charlo a draw. Neither one looked like they wanted to win. TERRIBLE boring fight. At least Canelo busted up Trout and Bambi-Legged him 3-4 times. The open scoring g killed that fight. And No Heart Trout did jack SHT knowing he was down. He was too SCURRED to go ALL-IN.....

So Schaefer is basically admitting he can't make PPV-worthy fights in their own backyard.

Who can? Haymon may bethe only one because Danny and Thurman should be good enough, and when EJ gets the belt from Brook it would be good enough in a unification but who else? Who can GB match Canelo with in their stable thats ppv worthy?

All of a sudden they're not mentioning GGG anymore. I wonder why is that? I guarantee they start talking again as soon as King G has an opponent lined up for his March drama show.

ggg doesnt bring the payday canelo brings, they are all about the money, thats why...

That's the truth! No different than GGG choosing Chavez Jr. over Andre Ward! Chavez Jr. doesn't have the resume, but he brings more "eyeballs," and eyeballs equal money! Last, but not least, Canelo (and in GGG's case: Chavez Jr.) gives Charlo a better chance to win!

totally agree with the bold, the only problem is ggg ****s in other fighters for doing such a thing, and turns around saying he is no businessman and respects box...

Too bad Oscar doesn't believe you.

oscar prob wont let it happen, but he has one big reason "richard schafer", why in the world will oscar give the lotto winner ticket to a fighter that belongs to richard?? specially when that fighter brings little money to the table.... that being said, as a hardcore fan this is a fight many of us would love to see...

while part of it agree with, if you took chavez tv numbers and ticket numbers, he actually does less than ggg was, even when he was really popular around the sergio fight. only difference is chavez was getting paid alot but his opponents werent really. only big thing chavez had was the ppv buy rate.

compare chavez ppv vs ggg ppv... is not even close...

Shaft nuts is trying to make a fight without anyone signed under him. He's basically using another mans property to try and work. When he signs Charlo maybe he should open his mouth.
