Comments Thread For: Lubin: Bouncing Back From KO Loss To Charlo Tells You A Lot About Me

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Erickson Lubin's career could've unraveled once Jermell Charlo knocked him out with one punch in the first round of their 154-pound title fight nearly three years ago. Lubin instead responded by winning five consecutive fights. The resilient southpaw's points win against Terrell Gausha on Saturday night again established him as the WBC's mandatory challenger for its super welterweight title.

Nice kid.
Impressive performance.
He looks more like a WW than a 154 pounder.

He gets knocked out by just about any of the belt holders including Jarrett Hurd

Completely agree he doesn't have the durability to hang with the bigger punchers at 154 he has a solid punch against lower level guys but against the elite they all have a punch as well the difference is the intangibles and I don't think he can hang with them credit to him for recuperating after that nasty KO and to keep himself in contention but I wasn't impressed last night I want to see him vs Tony Harrison or Brian Castano.

Let's not go sucking our own ****.

I like Lubin, but it's not like he's been anything besides a big favorite since that Charlo fight.

Not sure that performance convinced the boxing world he was ready for another shot at the big boys of the division, but hey, what else is he going to do or say.

he might be next... but hes not ready. he was punching at gloves and forearms all night, yet wasnt doing the same defensive moves. big mistake. that defense wont even last. might not be a first round KO again, but theres no way this Lubin gets the win.

Charlo (again), Rosario, Hurd, Lara, Castano, Texeira and probably Williams (although there has to be doubts about his durability) all look to be too much for Lubin.
So not sure, other than taking that mandatory shot, where he goes from here.
