Comments Thread For: Jermell Charlo to Canelo: Stop Eating Bad Meat, Come Back to '54!

Doe he's fighting Trout.
The guy Hurd nearly mutilated very recently.
What are you talking about?

and I have been (and others have been) critical of the matchup with Trout too. But at least Trout is 31 instead of 36, and it's a rematch from what was considered a close fight, so it's not really the same.

Lara was only 35 when he was calling out Glovkin.
And his fans here were saying Glovkin is ducking Lara doe.
Now he's suddenly old when he's being paired with Charlo,
who hasn't even done much himself yet.

[icha]

so canelo is ducking guys at 154 lmao...

And what is your point?

The point is that Hurd does not want Charlo yet, until he fights a right-handed fighter, because he has fought Harrison, Trout, and Lara, so he wants to fight an orthodox fighter before Charlo! No one is ducking anybody!

And you think Brook is a walk in the park.

Why is it that every time you turn around these guys are calling out fights that are unrealistic?? They waited for Jacobs to leave PBC before calling him out.

brook gonna set a record for getting his face broken in 3 weight classes if he fights Hurd.

[Jab jab boom]

The irony is, Canelo would need the clen to make 154. No way he makes that weight with ease.

I don't know what Brook really is at 154. I know one thing, and that is that Brook won't be fighting Hurd next either. Hearn has said he wants Brook to fight in July, and then "the big one." On top of that, the "big one" is more than likely Amir Khan. So Hurd needs to find Plan B! I hope it's J-Rock!

May 24, 2018:

It looks as though Kell Brook will be targeting another relatively soft touch before stepping up for the ‘big one.’ Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn tells Sky Sports that Brook will be fighting again this July against an opponent to be determined before stepping up in competition.

“Kell will be boxing in July and then after that we are looking for the big one,” Hearn exclusively told Sky Sports.

“Of course Amir is the big focus but I was interested to see Jarrett Hurd’s comments and that’s a fight we would definitely be interested in.”

Hurd, the unified IBF and WBA junior middleweight titleholder has recently been calling out Brook as he appears to view him as a marketable name who’s ripe for the picking.

Hearn sort of admits that Hurd won’t be an easy fight for Brook but says that Brook has his heart set on winning a world title at 154, and Hurd currently holds half of those major world titles. That said, Hearn says all the 154lb titleholders are potential targets for Brook and he expects to stage that level fight for Brook by the end of the year.

So you see, Hurd does not want Charlo yet, and Brook does not want neither Hurd, nor Charlo next!
