GGG Should Not Fight Charlo

[MONGOOSE66]

Let it be known, I am not completely sold on Charlo yet. But G's camp is on record saying that they won't be fighting him unless he's forced to and his actions seem to indicate that he doesn't want the fight, and I sincerely don't blame him. He's old, he doesn't need to get in that type of fight. But I want to see him fight champions.

Now, concerning Saunders, how did you like his performance against Lemieux?

Lemieux is a stationary target. Custom made for a boxer. I think Sauders is a great boxer. No doubt but boring. Kinda like Lara. Id love to see him with Canelo. Its a tuff fight for ANYONE meeting Canelo.

No doubt that Lemieux is limited, but I can't see how you could call Saunders' performance boring in that fight.

Either way, GGG/Saunders fight is more intriguing to me. I want to see how he could crack his code and vice versa. Action is good, but I also love seeing styles clash.

No way, you can basically hit the uppercut at will on GGG. He doesn't have good reflexes and his high guard leaves him open to it no matter what. It will also make him hesitant to throw his left hook. I also dont get what's "rudimentary" about Charlo's jab lol.

Charlo could basically keep Golovkin at distance with that rope of a jab or use it to split his guard and hit that uppercut whenever he wants or set him up for something else. And why wouldn't Charlo hurt GGG? Have you actually seen Charlo's uppercut or do you think there's no mortal who can hurt GGG?

I think Charlo wins but don't forget that Charlo went the distance with Korobov, Adams, and Trout and took 7 rds to KO Hogan. An old GGG is probably still better than all those guys.

I think its up to Charlo. If he is the hesitant Charlo, it will be a good close fight. If he is aggressive, I think he can hurt and stop GGG.

No but it does mean you shouldn't fight so timid when you have the power advantage and are confident you can take the other guys best shot

Who said he was confident that he could take their best shots? Unless the opponent either hits like a school girl or makes obvious mistakes, caution will always be the best strategy.

Not when the other guy is the better boxer than you and you have the power advantage
