    How can Charlo win?

    There are a ton of boxing fans that seem to think that Charlo can hang with Canelo. I'm asking an honest question. What skill set does Charlo possess that ensures a victory over Canelo? I don't see the workrate necessary to beat Canelo. Canelo's combo punching and defense seem to be his best assets besides his chin.

    So, how does Charlo beat him? Cause the ko isn't on the table in my view.

    He really only has a puncher's chance. People who only have a puncher's chance win like 2% of the time

      Canelo will knock him out if Charlo is too offensive and he’ll get a boxing lesson if he tries to box.

      To me it’s an easy fight for Canelo

          Canelo isn't knocking him out. There hasn't been one top level fighter that he has dominated or knocked out. Wasn't close to stopping Lara/Trout/GGG/Cotto/Floyd and he damn sure isn't knocking out a big guy like Charlo.

          Canelo is the smoother of the two, but Charlo has a killer jab and will be able to compete with him in close quarters. That is where Canelo is lethal, but Charlo simply doesn't panic in the line of fire and is able to land his big shots. A mover is what gives Charlo some issues, but Canelo isn't that type of guy. This will be a close fight as will Canelo vs Jacobs. There is nothing we have seen from Canelo against top level guys to think he will dominate any of them. Only one he has dominated or come close to dominating was Cotto. Every other fight has been competitive.

              I'd say so. I mean Trout and Lara are and Charlo is on that level at the very least.

              Like I don't think people realize how good Charlo's chin is. Just watch the JRock fight where he ate CLEAN shots from a sharpshooter and didn't even blink. He's extremely strong and has a wicked chin. You could out skill him as he isn't the hardest to hit, but Canelo stopping him? Not happening.

              But let's hope the WBC orders this fight soon and we get to see it.

                  There is a such thing as a shot version of Trout? Looked just fine over a year later vs Hurd and then even later vs other Charlo.

                  Again though, it is a fact that Canelo hasn't come close to stopping any top level fighter. All fights except Cotto were close, and even to some that was close. Highly highly highly unlikely he stops Charlo. Better chance he stops Jacobs.

                    everybody and their momma was knocking down trout prior to that fight, but charlo went life and death and couldnt drop him...
                    a much younger and lesser version of canelo shattered that chin of a prime undefeated version of trout, everyone after that had him doing the bambi legs...
                    not saying canelo stops charlo but he definitely beats him imho...
                    but should be a good fight that really needs to happen down the road.. i will preffer jacobs first cuz i think he deserves it...
