    Hopkins says CHARLO has to be next for Canelo

    But people call us casuals for demanding this fight. Is the great Bernard Hopkins now a casual?

    Charlo fights at 160

    Canelo recently stated that he will never fight below 168

    Hopkins is great, but in that example he should have looked before he leaped

    I got no problem with Charlo moving up... but in that situation, there are better/tougher options for Canelo at 168 until Charlo settles in to the division

    I have been saying for a long time, Benavidez/Canelo is the best fight to make at 168

      It is. But Canelo is not going anywhere near Benavidez right now.

        Canelo doesn’t “Have” to do anything.

            This is the correct answer.

              Jermall is an excellent opponent for Canelo and he said he would move up to 168 to fight Canelo. Canelo's next fight is with the guy from Turkey and that is already set to go in February. After Canelo almost certainly wins that fight his next fight will likely be with one of the other 168 pound champions Plant or Saunders.

                  Why can't Charlo fight Plant in May? Then target Canelo in September. If he has a 168 title belt by the end of May, then there's no excuse for Canelo not to fight him.

                    I would agree if Canelo would still be fighting at 160. Charlo probably needs to make a statement at 168 before people demand Canelo fights him asap. It's not like Charlo is the cash cow here.
