    Charlo’s best win just got starched by a journeyman in 5 rounds

    Let that sink in. Another PBC career going to waste. He will be 30 this year, and his best win is Williams.

    He should have a loss to washed up korobov too but the judges had his back, like they do with all the 'undefeated' pbc stars.

      Not the case with Jermell against Harrison.

        Yep. Champion in two weight classes and has fought no one. No Lara, Canelo, Andrade, Jacobs, GGG, Saunders, not even a Lemieux or D-chenko.

          Makes canelos decision to avoid him look even more suspect.

          If charlo is no good then canelo should’ve just iced him and for the mando out of the way rather than dropping the belt and not fighting him.

            Didn’t the WBC create yet another belt to complicate matters? I don’t think Canelo ducked Charlo is he can take on the more dangerous Cotto, GGG, Jacobs and Kovalev. When comparing resumes it is easy to see who was ducking who for two weight classes. Just because Charlo calls him out doesn’t mean he really wants to fight him.

              Dude canelo went to the wbc and asked to be made emeritus to avoid the charlo defense. You can’t say he didn’t avoid him.

              Pointing out who he fought makes the decision to avoid charlo even more confusing.

              You can feel however you want about charlo but the fact remains a guy you give credit for fighting tough guys avoided him.

                It gets worse. The ship has sailed at 160. Canelo's moved up. Saunder's moved up. Jacob's moved up. Golovkin won't fight anyone with a pulse not named Canelo. Even if Charlo does want to fight the best, what's left for him at 160? I think the Charlo's just want to make money. That's all fine and dandy, but they are having two of the most unmemorable careers for a pair of champions in recent memory.

                  A couple years ago I predicted Charlo would clean out 160. I liked him and thought he would take charge of the division. But all I see is excuses and a long string of no-hopers. Obviously he is content to allow Haymon to feed him up journeyman for < $2M per fight.

                    Yep, that's his best win.

                    I guess the formula is, hype up a fighter, then feed him to your prospect and you get a winning formula.
