See that’s where your wrong tony, canelo has arguably beaten fighters that hit harder than lemiuex, so I don’t think lemiuex lack of consideration boils down to how hard he hits, it’s more the fact that he doesn’t add to the legacy in any way at all, and he doesn’t add to the bank either... Chavez jr brought money, khan brought a name, Smith brought a belt, and fielding brought the coveted wba regular title that you gggroupies adore... lemiuex doesn’t bring money, or a name, or a belt... so that’s why my friend... kinda like szesmeta... whoops
Canelos coach says Charlo is EASY WORK!
Collapse

maybe he wants to cherry pick ggg 😂I think Canelo is the worst matchup for Charlo at or around 160...but at the same time, if Charlo really turned down an offer from him, and Andrade too, what is he doing? We need to start to see some moves being made from 147-175...there is like stagnation in all these divisions are far as fights being madeComment

Then he should have been barking a lot more when WBC made that fight mando to Canelo...Charlo's decision making is very odd.
Always thought he was holding out for the Canelo fight as that was the only one that really pays...but then he turns that down apparently, and turns down a multi million dollar offer vs Andrade...just makes no sense.
I think he is just getting terrible advice right now and his team don't want him fighting anyone at all at 160...certainly neither of those 3 guys.Comment

Maybe; I’ve said this before in other threads. But to me it’s either one or the other scenarioThen he should have been barking a lot more when WBC made that fight mando to Canelo...Charlo's decision making is very odd.

1. He is very confident in his ability to keep winning and keep his title there for turning down a fight now will only make him more money when the fight is offered in the future
2. Charlo is ducking
I personally think it’s the first scenario but that’s a risky one because by losing his 0 he loses his belt and loses some 0’s from that offer too.... grab your popcornComment

I honestly think he is just getting bad advice...like Wilder turning down that DAZN offer...Haymon/PBC (and honestly I have no real allegiance to or issue with any promoter) don't want to help DAZN succeed in anyway...it is a war going on with them and DAZN...DAZN isn't really engaging them in the war but Haymon and PBC see DAZN as a huge threat so don't want to do any business with them imho.Maybe; I’ve said this before in other threads.

I actually like Charlo...he is not the most talented boxer but has some good physical traits and would be a problem for anyone around 160...the proverbial puncher's chance...but he and his brother are similar to me.
Unless they can just dominate a guy physically...they will get outboxed all day/everyday imho...so expecting 160 Charlo to dominate every time out and really raising his profile...idk I just really don't see it/get it...if he was going to be a star, it would have been happening by now as well.Comment

I stand by what I said. I'm not surprised that they haven't fought. There isn't enough incentive for Canelo to fight a hard hitting fighter like Lemieux flawed as he is. I think you should go back and reread my initial post. You are basically echoing what I said and yes Lemieux's power is a consideration.Last edited by TonyGe; 02-13-2020, 09:52 PM.Comment
