          Cause if ur gonna fight bums u have to at least have charisma or a attractive fighting style. They don't have either, they're the new Andre bertos. U have to b willing to go get it the way Spence Jr did.

            They are good fighters and exciting fighters. There is no reason they couldn't headline a show given a good opponent. I'd love to see Jermall fight Jacobs and Jermell fight Hurd if he beats Trout which might not be easy.

              The fact that you have that punching bag bum in your avi makes yours posts more laughable. Keep them coming smash

                You keep saying that but I see little evidence of it. Jacobs has been calling out Jermall loud and often and Hurd wants to fight Jermell. They are good but not scary good. Jermall failed to hurt Trout and Jermell didn't beat Vanes by much. Jermell was way behind on points when he knocked out glass jawed Jackson.

                  That is how you build headliners. You take your time. Guarantee you Jermell's unification fight will be the headliner. Once Jermall has the full WBC title, he'll be headlining too.

                  Bad blood brewing with Showtime? Are you crazy? Showtime has been insanely supportive. These guys are making great money, getting great exposure, and are being deliberately built into headliners by Haymon and Showtime.

                    Not headlining just says they're not ready for prime time yet and still need full protection.
                    They're showcase fighters in the PBC circus.
                    Jacobs is very available, yet Jermall Charlo wants no part of him.
                    The other Charlo is fighting Hurd's leftover. And he's happy.

                      Yea I don't get it either. The problem is I think Haymon gots too much talent on his hands & not enough TV dates. And thats been the case during this whole PBC run thus far.

                      Cuz to me the Charlo's are fun mfers you wanna push harder. Win or lose they are compelling TV I feel like & deserve more attention. They could be among the faces of the sport, but instead are backing up Tank. And thats not even a diss per se cuz Tank is killing it these days, but Tank wasn't even on PBC shows when PBC started & he's headlining sh^t now. Meanwhile the promoterless Charlo's got no one taking up their cause or invested in them to push their agenda all day every day like Tank does. Sh^t is a damn shame.

                      I'm rooting on the Charlo's signing with Hearn's DAZN situation as I think that'll keep their money good but also put them in more meaningful fights, not to say PBC hasn't done better with them recently, & headlining every show they are on. Hell if you can get them fighting on the same card I think they'd do all the better & perhaps draw even more interest.
