Comments Thread For: Shields: Jermall Charlo Will 'Give a Lot of Middleweights Hell'

[JakeTheBoxer]

I can see Charlo ruling 160 a year from now. He will be the man to beat at MW by end of 2018.

So you are saying he will beat GGG next year?

[cally93]

Yeah for me he'll defo beat canelo for sure,,I think he'd do it in devastating fashion too..Golovkin bit more difficult but if he incorporated a similar game plan to the one Jacobs used only throwing much more punches lol then he'd probably beat Golovkin.

If canelo beats Golovkin in September, am pretty sure he'll pass fight Charlo though, I mean he ducked both brothers at 154, can't see him suddenly being eager to fight him at 160 lol.

He's young and hungry. Good to see him @ MW. I'd love to watch him fight Jacobs, but since both are trained by Shields I doubt it happens.

Jacobs is trained by Rozier

I think he has the tools to beat him, but there is a chance GGG may move to 168 or retire my middle of 2018 in my opinion. He'll make a nice payday versus Canelo and if he wins he probably focuses on unification versus Saunders. After that, I don't know if he hangs around 160 or the sport of boxing much longer.

I would really like to see Charlo/Jacobs though, that is the fight at 160 that will be his litmus test for success.

Doh, I knew that. Thanks for correction.

In that case, Jacobs - Jermall 2018!

I'd like to see it. A lot of talk of Jacobs going to 168 though.

Charlo vs Jacobs will be a dread fight

I receive a lot of hate for saying this but I'm just honest, I think Charlo is a top fighter, but I can't rank him as the monster most people make him to be unless I see him in there with a top 5 guy like GGG or Jacobs.

Don't get me wrong I think he has great potential with those phsycal attributes but a lot of people make him to be the Boggeyman while I don't see any reason to call him by that name.

His best win to me was Trout, I'm just honest I never thought highly of J-Rock, Julian to date has still not beat a decent name, I still think of Erislandy Lara as the best 154 and I think the man at 160 is GGG.

So while I think Charlo "might be" a real killer I need to see him against a top 5 guy on a division.

Baby steps first so he should fight lil g 1st.

With your logic, tell me who lil g has beat to be a top guy? Cant use Jacobs cuz Jacobs beat him, cant use Brook cuz Brook is a welterweight. And don't give me lemuix cuz he wack or stevens cuz that small man is fighting out his division
