most of the EE guys save for two of them are older and still just about to hit stride....usyk is 30-31...gvozdyk is 30-31...beterbiev is 33......
loma is one of the guys thats 29 and already fighting some real good guys....but as youve seen....you could poke a few holes in some of the guys if you look harder.........now gassiev is still a pup and is on another level as far as im concerned.....hes surpassed them all to me at this point
but with charlo...i think hes about right where most normal US guys would be at this point......another factor is you have to remember the excuse golovkin fans used to make...about guys fighting him.....i mean im sure he would have liked to fight some of the guys at 154 but its not always easy to make fights....heck his brother couldnt get andrade......i wouldnt doubt charlo would fight golovkin next week if he could......but you know that golovkin is at a different juncture in his career where it makes little sense and i know that......but you cant just hold a guy down because he cant get big fights right? i mean thats what we were fed by golovkins fans no?
like i said...i think charlo is just about right where most good US prospects are at his age......but i hope they really push him hard the next couple of years and dont waste it....he should be fighting 3x this year.....but his resume is really no worse than spences at this point.....and everyone loves spence and wants to see him against the top guys at 147
