Comments Thread For: Jermall Charlo: I'm Ready, Bring on The Biggest Names at 160!

[Raggamuffin]

He might be ready, but his trainer was singing a different tune just a couple days ago in an interview I heard. They asked him if Jermall would fight Jacobs, and he said, "For what? Jacobs just fought for the middleweight championship and lost, so now he has to get back in line."

There are four relevant guys at 160 right now besides GGG: Daniel Jacobs, David Lemieux, Canelo, and Billy Joe Saunders. GGG already fought and beat the first two, and he's about to fight the third (and then the fourth in December probably if he wins), so what makes Jermall Charlo so ****ing privileged that he can't even be bothered to fight one of them in order to build his name a little so it's actually worth GGG's while, financially, to pay him the ridiculous money you know he's going to demand to fight GGG?

GGG will have fought all four by the end of the year, if things go to plan. Charlo can't even fight one? His trainer says "For what?" Seriously?? For legacy. For ****ing money, since you will make way more fighting Jacobs than you will fighting ****ing Heiland. For star power and resumé.

You know the real reason for Charlo to fight and beat Jacobs? Because if he don't, he don't even ****ing deserve next. Yeah that's right. Until Charlo actually goes and does something about it like a true fighter would, Jacobs already got next. Because Jacobs actually stepped up already and gave GGG a competitive enough fight where fans would like to see a rematch. Now if Charlo can beat Jacobs, that shine will transfer to Charlo, and now all the fans asking for a GGG-Jacobs rematch will be demanding GGG-Charlo instead. But until he does that, those fans still want to see the GGG-Jacobs rematch, not GGG-Charlo.

And if Canelo comes close to beating GGG? Then he will have next, too.

And if David Lemieux knocks out Cotto or something? He might even jump in line for a rematch ahead of Charlo. Because ever since knocking out JRoc, the only notable win of Charlo's entire career, all he has done is sit out the better part of a year, and then fight a one-legged can. If he thinks that's enough to get him the GGG fight, he's dreaming.

But that's the secret, isn't it? Charlo never wanted the GGG fight, and he still don't. Abel Sanchez has been saying all year that GGG will move up to 168 after he unifies the division. So what this is really about is posturing. Haymon got the WBC to make Charlo the #1 contender so that once GGG moves up, Charlo can fight one of his guys for the belt.

Or, knowing the corruption that goes on and how much influence Haymon has with the WBC, maybe Charlo will just become champion automatically, without even having to fight anyone. Because apparently, that's just the way Ronnie Shields likes it.

What do you mean Charlo doesn't want the GG fight? Stop lying to posters.

And Charlo was a titlist at 154 and when he moves up he got a high ranking. That isn't out of the norm. Your corruption and Haymon comment is dubious at best. Saunders is a bum.

Canelo never wanted the fight at 154 and Charlo will fight any of those guys that you mentioned. Charlo is dangerous for all four guys that you mentioned and you know it.

You are F.O.S, just looking at your signature... and in your opinion Kova win the second fight too? LOL!

So why don't you tell us what Willie Monroe and Wade did to earn them title shots at GGG?

While you're at it tell us what Brook did at middleweight to earn the GGG fight?

Tell us again why he should fight Jacobs who is coming off of a loss and what exactly has Jacobs himself done at middleweight?

And then when you done with all of that tell us why you so shook by Jarmall Charlo? You scared he'll knock your boy triple hype's head clean off his shoulders.

Charlo ducked everybody with a pulse at 154, and they cherry picked a guy with a lame leg for his 160 debut .... GGG fans shook doe ....

Lol, he delayed his move up to 160 to fight Jrock, who everyone said he was gonna duck. He took a high risk low reward fight against Trout prior to that. Now he just secured a mandatory spot for GGG's belt. But he cowardly duck doe.

[brettWall]

Jacobs is looking for a dance partner.

We all know why Charlo delayed his move up to 160. And it had nothing to do with Jrock, aka "who da fuck is that guy"?

And if he was as good as you're saying he is, Trout would not have been high risk for him.

Let's make it happen: GGG vs Charlo. Charlo will be a good resume for GGG.

Trout beat Cotto and had a close fight with Canelo. On top of that Charlo was fighting half blind (had eye surgery after the fight to correct the problem).

It was definitely high risk considering he didn't even have to take the fight.

So Heiland leg was hurt before they signed the contract to fight? He became the WBC #1 after the contract was signed? Wow!

[rickJen]

Give him Andrade.
Or Jacobs.
