    Huh? How exactly is SHO going to be pushing for this fight when it isn't even clear that Golovkin wants it? Golovkin determines if the fight happens or not. If he chooses to go in another direction, then Charlo either gets a direct shot at Canelo, or he fights the next highest rated guy. Though not sure how that would make sense since he was already the mandatory.

      So far I only see simpletons on youtube and twitter like Deontae pushing the myth GGG is ducking, yet there isn’t anything on the table.

      ESPN and DAZN are pushing hard to get GGG, while Showtime and Team Charlo, whoever there is in the background pulling strings, are all quite.

      I have no doubt Charlo wants the fight, but boxing isn’t social welfare. GGG gonna go for the most lucrative option and if Showtime and Team Charlo don’t make moves, we get Charlo vs. O’Sullivan in June 2019.
      Because GGG doesn't want to fight Charlo.

      Also, Charlo will not be fighting O'Sullivan - 0% chance of that fight happening next.

        More and more inaccuracies. Par for the course with haters.

          Charlo will come out a winner in that situation. Golovkin ducking and a shot at Canelo. Life will be sweet for Charlo.
          Besides, Team GGG has already stated that GGG is done fighting this year and don't believe Charlo deserves to fight GGG. If anything GGG gonna end up fighting Murata in Japan for the secondary WBA

            I'd take this post seriously if you knew how to spell quiet.

              Try again. Bum.
              GGG makes 2 million when he fights under his promoter. His biggest paydays are because of Brook and Canelo. He should thank Oscar and Hearn. GGG just made 1 million for his last fight. GGG isn't Canelo or AJ where he makes millions with whoever he fights. GGG's multi million paydays are now all again after Canelo.

                I was there, never seen so many empty seats at that place. We only went because we got free tickets. Saw Charlo/JRock at the Galen center and that was packed. Galen Center holds around 10k compared to Stub Hub which holds 8k

                  Nah his career would be really destroyed by fighting on an app in front of 15k viewership

                    The tickets were really over priced for the Vanes fight. That has a lot to do with it. You have to know the price point. I couldn't believe what they were charging for Golovkin-Vanes, are you kidding me.

                    I think it is unlikely that Golovkin fights Charlo. I think Murata is next and then if he and Canelo agree they'll fight again. He doesn't need Charlo to get a third fight with Canelo if that is what they both want.

                    I think Charlo is likely in for another year of no Golovkin or Canelo. I said this back in early 2017. I said that is why he needed to get fighting better opponents to create more of a public buzz. He has fought two stiffs over two years and has no one lined up right now.

                    He should call out Golovkin. He will know that fight is unlikely but his appeal should be one of respect. Basically saying I know it took you (Golovkin) a while to get the big fight, let me have that chance. Let me prove to the world I'm the best.

                    Once he sees Golovkin is not going to fight him then target Canelo. Canelo isn't going to fight him any time soon I believe so he should go right away after the Jacobs/Derevy winner. Or get working on Andrade.

                    Charlo needs to do a lot more hustling. The WBC has no power over guys who have a lot of options that make them money and can add to their boxing legacy as much if not more than beating Charlo.

                      If he fights Murata he will probably make multi-millions. That is why that fight is likely to happen in Japan.

                      But no Golovkin is not going to make mult-millions of dollars fighting guys in the States who bring nothing to the table.
