Comments Thread For: Erickson Lubin WBC's New No. 1 Contender for Jermell Charlo

[TheUptownKid]

I feel like Charlo is underrated I also feel like Lubin is untested. That being said I give lubin a definite shot against him because his hand speed is by far superior, though his chin hasn't been checked as of yet. If lubin can withstand charlos power I think he can outbox Charlo as he is fairly predictable with his 1-2s

Lubin's not ready, but you never know.

The best way to get ready is to fight the best competition, so this fight can only help him get better, even if he loses.

Lubin doesn't have the experience to deal with Charlo. Lubin isn't a better boxer than Charlo, he doesn't have a better jab and he isn't as strong as Charlo. You just can't go from Jorge Cota, Juan Ubaldo Cabrera and Ivan Montero to facing guys like Jermell Charlo.

Jermell is better than him in every way and Lubin will get KO'd in the middle rounds as Charlo will probably take him to waters he has never been in and drown him. '

Poor management by Lubin's team nobody at 154 beats Jermell. Especially if he sits down with his punches now.

I've got a simple question, WHY ISN'T ANYONE GOING AFTER THE WBO 154lb. TITLE!!!???

Another mandatory already? And yet other belt holders can pick and choose which ever tomato can they want to defend against?
Gotta love boxing.

Having said that, the only time I would love to see Lubin in the ring v Jermell is as a sparring partner so as to gain more seasoning!!

Not sure why the rush. This is a HUGE step up.

Heck i would even pick Charles Hatley over Lubin at this point.

If you can't fight today, you can't fight tommorow.

But seriously I pick Lublin to pick Charlo apart. People pretending Charlo is some great boxer. He's not. 1 fight ago John Jackson was making him look like a complete amateur for 9 rounds.

Lubin might be chinny but talent wise he's miles better than Jermell.

Andrade and cotto are 1-2 from their last rankings. They're not fighting anytime soon

WHEN you win vacant WBC the rule is 2 mandatories in a row. But they don't always follow it

I don't know if Lubin is ready either.

[A.K]

You mean he would make a QUICK fight. This fight won't even go 5 rounds IMO.

What lubin is better than that he ain't no chump I can guarantee you he wouldn't get ko'd
