Comments Thread For: When Will We Learn if Jermall Charlo is Very Good Or Great?

[Jayallday9]

Charlo is already very good. We'll find out if he's great when the top dogs fight him. If he was a "nobody that needs to fight someone" but was not very good, any one of the top dogs would fight him. I know how the game goes though, so Charlo will have to keep beating whoever the put him in with.. Eventually the noise will be too loud for GPB to ignore.

it will be hard to know if he continues to fight bums on PBC, he is on the wrong side of the street...

When he fights GEE or Canelo. (Win or Lose)

[Bad_Guy]

WBC will make sure that Canelo never has to fight Charlo. GGG and others probably won't do it voluntarily. The Jacobs fight is the only one that is likely imo because Charlo will wipe out pretty much everyone in the division.

Both this dudes got a big loud mouth!
Use it as advatage for once!!!!
Theres 2 of them 154/160!
Keep up the rants on social media, keep calling canelo out! Question the WBC as to why the mandatory is not being enforced. Than again you can always fught jacobs! But they dont seem to want any of that!

[Catrin]

Wipe the division? I dont know about all that... let’s see in what manner they manage to win this coming wknd.

'Future of boxing' hes coming up to 30 and hes treated like a prospect

[chrisJS]

Neither Charlo is really that special and both are now suspect as hell with PED usage. At best they can be "good" if they ever step up. But "great"? That term is thrown around too much especially in the weakest era in boxing right now. I'd say Crawford, Lomachenko, Usyk have a ceiling to be "great", maybe Inoue if he improves technically but that's it. Nobody else simply has it. It just is what it is. If you think I'm kidding just watch some of the middleweight contenders of the 50's and 60's and how excellent they were as far as skills, technique and all around game. The Charlo's wouldn't even be top 30 in that era.

We think now if a guy has an "0", or fights twice a year and KO's some stiffs whilst probably juiced that he's great.

Interesting part of the article:

Al Haymon, Charlo’s adviser, has made eight-figure offers to Golovkin (38-1-1, 34 KOs) in hopes the Kazakh knockout artist will join Haymon’s Premier Boxing Champions. Haymon’s plan is to lure the aged Golovkin into the PBC/FOX/Showtime fold, eventually match him against Charlo and, perhaps as important, prevent Canelo-Golovkin III from taking place on DAZN.

No question Al wants GGG for Charlo, but offering him 8 figures? I'm guessing that is per fight? Dayum, that's crazy money there and obviously his fights would have to take place on PPV. Not sure he can make 8 figures on PPV against any of these guys without the network or PBC losing money. Maybe Al is willing to do that to make Charlo a star?

Why are those the only two options? He could be very good but he's a long way from knowing if he's great. He could be just good.
