[1hourRun]

Well said. Sure is hard to bet against Charlo though.

J-Rock was a -2250, Jeison Rosario was +950!!! I wonder where the line is set for Charlo vs. Rosario. Yo, the dude that bet on J-Rock tho

[Squ□redCircle34]

Charlo time to shine and shut the haters up again!

War Charlo!!!!!!!!!

[-DSG-]

Sources: Jermell Charlo and Jeison Rosario have agreed to terms on a deal for a title unification bout that will headline PBC on FOX on either Sept. 19 or 26. Could be first significant fight since boxing’s return excluding PPV/DAZN https://t.co/zHrwrScSHB

Doesn't look like it will be on PPV. If there are MLB games on the 26th, then looks like this will take place on the 19th.

I wonder what date Davis/LSC takes place on? Will they push it back to October? Two PPVs in October with that fight and Lomachenko-Lopez?

Mlb has games on fox that night as well so either the dates are wrong or it's a ppv.

This is crazy to me that either one of these dudes is about to hold 3 belts....

& watch them overrate TF outta the winner. Boxing really is about how you get moved...

Uh, the winner of this fight will deserve all the hype they get. He would have earned it the hard way.

Yaaaawn..............

Maybe, maybe not. When Canelo was at 154, he got swept by little Floyd and was in tough vs Trout and Lara. Then you have Lara who has been in tough fights himself and got to most which was a fortunate decision vs Molina. Andrade was signed to fight this Charlo and it was him who pulled out so we will never know.

Are Charlo or Rosario flawless? Hell no. But to use prior era argument or to say if this fighter was at 154 or this fighter then they wouldn't win is kind dumb...Because you can do that with any division at any time.

There's no maybe about it.

What does Canelo's performance's against them have to do with what he'd do to Jermell or Rosario?

The Lara-Molina fight was a decent point. I remember watching it but don't remember too many of the circumstances around it aside from what you said. But I still firmly stand behind that a prime Lara is better than either or.

Maybe you don't know but I do. Andrade is clearly a better fighter than Jermell. Floyd coulda pulled out of the Pacquiao fight it still wouldn't change what I said since I was a teenager years before they did fight.. That he was better & would beat him. That ain't to say I get every prediction right. But my level of confidence isn't the same for every prediction.

You making it seem like what I said was a 10 yr difference. This is a few years ago lmaooooo. The fighters who deserve the term "elite" not just in their division but in the sport! Are no longer there. It's not rocket science. George Groves iirc lost everytime he stepped up until Badou Jack, Ward, Degale etc. left the division. He became a world champ. Never said they wouldn't "win" btw. Neither one of these guys is holding 3 belts with the guys I named there & I stand on that. Also the strength of a division isn't always the same. Everybody in boxing knows this. So it makes a difference. Unless you gonna sit there & tell me the division is better now as far as caliber, omitting the ppl I named. If Crawford becomes undisputed at 47, it will be held in a different regard than 40. But I'm just a guy with an opinion what do I know.

Uh, the winner of this fight will deserve all the hype they get. He would have earned it the hard way.

I guess you believe everything that's popular & regurgitated in boxing amongst the media & fans, lol.

His performances against those fighters tell us that it is unlikely he blows out someone like Charlo and the fight is competitive. The 154 division is one of the few where most of the top guys are continuing to face off. Whoever wins this fight will deserve whatever credit they get.

Charlo was still champion when Andrade was at 154 as well as Lara. I'm not really sure which version of Lara you are referring to but he was still really good when Hurd beat him. Charlo is at least on the same level of Hurd so if Hurd would have three belts, would it be different for you? Would he been deemed more worthy?

And as for Rosario, hey if you beat JRock and Charlo back to back, then you must be the real deal.

J-Rock was a -2250, Jeison Rosario was +950!!! I wonder where the line is set for Charlo vs. Rosario. Yo, the dude that bet on J-Rock tho

Charlo -333
Rasario +240

I'm not even gonna compare Floyd, cause there's no reason to. That was a different Trout + he's a southpaw. Lara is also & he was on another level from Trout & Jermell. I'm not talking about being competitive, you don't get awarded belts for being competitive, you get them for winning. They facing off cause there isn't anybody in that division with leverage. A bunch of guys who can lose on any given night & it ain't cause it's killers left & right.

The only reason he was even champion the same time as Andrade is because Andrade's ordeal with Roc Nation is indirectly the best thing to ever happen to Jermell's career. You keep talking about wins & singular titles. I feel like I'm repeating myself in different ways. 3 titles man. 3! They not good enough to hold 3 titles in a truly good era.

IMO the Lara that fought Hurd is literally his last fight in his prime. Hurd never had 3 belts. Unless minor titles matter now. Even if he did he didn't beat the guys I named to do it. But I'm saying Jermell & Rosario don't make it through the guys I named & either one have 3 belts, I thought that was obvious.


That's exactly my point. This fight is Charlo's to lose. Rosario will get more credit for winning than Charlo would if won. & If Rosario beats Charlo fair & square it speaks volumes about the division!

Charlo -333

Vegas put some respek on Rosario's name.
