Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach: Charlo Has To Earn Shot, Not in Jacobs' Class!

[Dean_Razorback]

GGG first has to beat canelo. then i wouldn't mind a fight with charlo. i think it would be a great fight, hope charlo is actually willing to face GGG (or canelo if victorious) unlike saunders. although i think saunders would rather face canelo than GGG

[GhostofDempsey]

Funny that all the lil g fans want Charlo vs Jacobs so lil g don't have to worry about Jacobs anymore & by the time Charlo would be the next guy lil g will run to 168. You guys aint fooling no one! Jermall vs lil g is the next fight we want at 160.

Really, because you haters were going on and on about how GGG was ducking Canelo. Suddenly the fight gets made and Charlo is the new boogeyman. Look how long Floyd stalled Manny--took him five years to make that fight, but his fans blamed Pac even after Floyd admitted he was the one who "marinated" the fight.

You really think there is a demand to see Charlo/GGG this year? Again, no one knows who Charlo is and he should fight Jacobs to see who gets winner of GGG/Canelo. Or try to get a fight with Saunders for his slice of the title. Look what they are doing at WW...Garcia/Porter fight one another for shot at rematch with Thurman next...Spence doesn't get to jump the line just because he has a title now. Who deserves a shot at Ward next? Unknown Gvodzyk or Stevenson who has been around for a while?

2. In most case, I never used the term "ducking". That's term for team GGG and their ****riders always used. But in their logic, Is GGG doing "ducking" which other fighters did to GGG? Don't give a **** fighters choose money. I just hate double standard and hypocrisy.

I agree with this. My fellow GGG fans can't criticize Canelo for taking his sweet time making the fight or guys like Cotto,Sturm and Martinez for ducking him because GGG didn't bring enough money to the table AND THEN say the same thing about other guys who want to fight GGG now that he's a big name. Double standards are bull*****.

Abel speaks common sence. Charlo cannot seat on his arse and wait for ggg fight he must keep active fight some decent fights and build his brand. The same goes for Jacobs. Martin Murray, Andy Lee, the winner of Murata - Ndam, winner of Derevyachenko-Johnson, Aleem, Arias etc are all winnable fights and they would do the job. Still, unless ggg declines rapidly i cant see Charlo going 12 rounds against G.
Jacobs just managed to survive because of the 15-20 pounds weight advantage on fight night and i cant see ggg team allowing this to happen again

Oleksandr Gvozdyk. He's fought the stronger opposition recently.

Abel just confirmed that the previous rhetoric was just posturing and all they are interested in is money fights. That's all. Charlo does not have name recognition so they are not interested. They want to fight Canelo and then they want to fight Canelo after which they want to fight Canelo. It's all about money at this point, nothing more. And they want to win real bad, so they get the rematch dollars. Big money show!!!

That's what people should be pushing for all these other MWs to start facing off. Charlo and Jacobs would be good. There are plenty of other fights that can get going while Golovkin and Canelo settle things (and likely will be recuperating after).

No hes been pretty vocal about being pro GGG, he dont want a Mexican to do what the black man has failed to do so far.

Aah so!

[kafkod]

Jermall Charlo would spank your boy lil g & that is why sanchez don't want him in there & apparently lil g fans don't want it either....lmao....scared little punks.

I almost shit my pants when I heard that Jermall was moving up to 160. Been sleeping with the light on ever since.

Exactly. Especially with Jacobs and Charlo being huge middleweights they could even fight some of the 168ers on a catchweight and make some good money in the UK. Eubanks Callum Smith to name a few
