    Trout being past his prime against Charlo is an opinion really. He was in good shape, looked very sharp to me and the fight was actually very close.

    Julian Williams was a highly regarded prospect / contender before Charlo knocked him out.
    I've been among the most critical of charlo/andrade than almost anyone,but the 1 who truly deserves ridicule is ggg because he can face either 1 anytime he wants it would be a huge event as well as solidify his legacy a ton,but instead as usual hes trying to make lowball offers to low level no hopers with tons of losses against D level opponents.

    Gggs fans claim hes benjamin button in reverse & that hes aging 1 yr per day,yet they now give him a pass 4 hiding out/healing his face for 1 yr then returning to face another bum in hopes ginger lottery ticket cashes in again. Why would canelo face him again when according to his stans his bones are turning to dust by the day & they'd give him zero credit for winning?

      Adams sucks he was white washed by Willie Monroe and then John Thompson (who Liam Smith KO'd) did this to Adams LMAO



      It would of been a trash fight for GGG (who made a contract offer and got turned down by Adams) got to be consistent it's now a trash fight for Charlo.

        Korobov is 36 years old and he was destroyed in his prime by Lee. Jacobs wasnt in his prime and Pirog was much better boxer than B level Lee.

        Trout was never the same after 2 losses to Alvarez and Lara.

        Who did J-Rock beat? Who is that guy? Why would anyone say he was a top guy?

          Probably depends on the contracts signed with the networks as well as which network would offer the higher site fee

            difference is all the beltholders are on dazn and Andrade is available to him right now. Charlo doesn't have those options where he is fighting. Yes I would prefer Suckleki or the guy Jacobs beat, but PBC is anemic at MW. GGG doesn't have that excuse

                DAZN needs GGG vs Canelo/Jacobs winner at year-end, so of course they want a soft option for GGG's next fight, hence the offer to Adams - basically Adams not seen as having a realistic chance, and a tool to make GGG look like his old self again by blasting him out in a couple of rounds.

                So can understand the GGG angle, and if not Adams, then will be someone else of same calibre so the winner Canelo/Jacobs fight doesn't get derailed

                But why Charlo fight someone of this calibre ? I don't see a gameplan or reason other than to keep treading water - waiting for what ? (If its a Canelo or GGG mandatory - not going to happen as they got big buck business over on DAZN - belts will be dropped if necessary, Canelo now same position Matweather was - doesn't need belts any more to hype his fights, and GGG's deal with DAZN too sweet for him to turn his back on it).

                  This is why he should fight on the DAZN..home of the middle weights.

                  Who is at 160 that is under PBC who is not just getting there feet wet in the game and is already establish...

                  That under card has to be bomb for me to even entertain this... matter of fact this is not even a main event fight
