    That's the correct thing to do. I think Lara would easily beat Jermell. Jermall is much better than Jermell and about as good as Lara. Jermall wants to go to 160 and that would help clear up the mess at 154.

      The Charlos and Lara won't fight each other, even though Mel isn't with Shields anymore.

      So I hope Andrade gets a crack at somebody.
      me too...he was my fav fro the 08 olympic class...kid has talent and the right attitude...cant believe he crashed the conference

        he definitely has to stay active and in the thick of things...stay relevant

            Lara, Saul and the Charlos better watch out.....imo I'd favor Boo Boo over all of them except jermall....Jermall Charlo would be the best fight and 50/50

            154 has too many undefeated fighters just like 154
            I'm a huge fan of the kid. Just straight up talent/eye test, I think he may be one of the best fighters in the sport. He also has an exciting style, is a good **** talker and is the type of guy that can help sell fights once he gets a name with casuals.That said his career has been handled about as bad as it could be up to this point. He has had opportunities and ****ed them up, regardless of the circumstances. He could of already beat Jermell Charlo and Korobov, before he got stretched by Andy Lee.

            Hopefully we see big things from him in 2017.

              at the time, it wouldnt have meant much....charlo was a prospect and korobov name was made in the amatuers, hasnt done much in the pro ranks

                Given what he has done over the last 2 1/2 years, both would of been huge in comparison. Not to mention the Korobov fight would of been for the WBO middleweight title which would of gave him more options.

Canelo probably won't stay at 154 anyway .Jermall and Lara would be hard fights for him but I think he can beat him. There is nothing Fab about Jermell in my opinion. He won a vacant belt by beating Jackson who isn't very good. I think Andrade would easily beat Jermell. Just because they are brothers doesn't make then equally good. I think Jermall is a much better fighter than Jermell.
                  Not a fair assessment of Jermell. Jackson has literally ouboxed every single opponent that he has faced, his chin is his one and only kryptonite.

                  So to judge Jermell because he was being outboxed by a guy who has outboxed everyone he has faced foes not yield quite an accurate result.

                  We will see how Jermell does against Hartley and Andrade. They are both his mandatories so I don't think he has much of a choice but to fight those two consecutively.
