Charlo puts Lara to sleep

Dude that was 2012 sparring footage, and it was the other brother not this one. 2012 these guys were little kids. That's freakin five years ago.

So back then they were lil kids really? they were 22 yrs old,the same age canelo fought Austin trout,& these guys are 6'+ giants.

I would rather Charlo/Hurd fight or for Hurd to take Lara out because if anyone is enough of a tank at 54 to run through Lara its Hurd

I would love to see this fight! I love both these guys! Lara outboxes Jermell IMO.

Hopefully it happens i'd like to see Jermell get the top spot at 154. Plus it's time for Lara to fight someone good after his last few duds. He hasn't had a fight I was interested in since 2014 and he's 34. It's time to see him in some big fights.

jermell Charlo has to learn how to cut the ring off against a mover like lara.. easier said than done..he can't afford for Lara to move like Jackson did...cut the ring off.. and land solid right hands..all or most top Cuban fighters got weak chins

Are you for real? How many kos have you seen? Casamayor, Rigondeaux, Hernandez, Barrera, Ortiz, Dorticos, Barthelemy, Socarras and even Gamboa (he was at 135 when crawfors kod him, still he alomos ko the bigger guy) just to mention a few... Did you ever heard of Kid Gavilan?

Canelo turned pro at 16 and so what if he fought Trout then? He clearly struggled in that fight to a disputed victory so what does that say about him?

Besides it aint like Charlo got schooled in that clip. There was nothing in it and you can clearly see AND HEAR from the comments from the guys at ringside that they were working on certain things in that sparring footage.

Charlo was working on the jab in particular and cutting off the ring. I'd suggest you watch the footage again and listen to the guys/trainer at ringside throughout the footage.

This is why sparring footage if often meaningless in terms of how a real fight would go, especially that 'type' of footage where one guy is working on a certain fundamental.

There are also other factors like for instance what stage of training camp each fighter is at. The one fighter could be near peak because he's fighting soon and the other could be just there to help the other out and is not neccessarily in training camp or preparing for an upcoming fight.

You guys are just desperate at this point, you're even watching footage of the wrong Charlo. SMH.

When the **** did I claim anything u just wrote.
you CLEARLY are a charlo fan that takes everything personally,all I said was that at 22 yrs old their not" lil kids" like u claimed.

I don't even know what footage your talking about. But as far as canelo vs trout,a 22 yr old tiny 5'8" canelo kd undefeated champ trout & bambi legged him while coasting to easy ud with open scoring,trout knew the score the entire fight but just continued to run away cause he would get ko'd.

Meanwhile the better 26 yr old Charlo whos 6'+ fought a washed up trout & still had a way closer fight than 22 yr canelo vs trout, everyone booed charlo cause he got a wide bs decision without even kd trout, so whats that say about him(hes average af hypejob)

sorry buddy,should have put most Cubans I've WATCHED..rigondeaux has been knocked down..with a jab by amagasa...nonito dropped him..Gamboa knocked out by Crawford,stopped by Castellanos..Sullivan Barrera knocked down by pillow fist ward,by Joe smith Jr..dorticos knocked out in the amateurs dunno how many times but he got stopped by Artur beterbiev in the amateurs..just to name a few..but I shouldn't have stereotyped them..there are maybe other past Cuban fighters with excellent chins..I agree
