I don't think we'll see any major moves by them until Jermell fights Hurd. They can't afford to miss that opportunity. If he locks up those belts, they can run up the price if that's what they want to do.
But I don't think they have a true plan yet.

(1) He's never fought a guy that big. He'll be giving up a lot of reach and size to a guy that has a pretty solid jab.
(2) His only decisive (meaning clear) win against a true top fighter in the last 5 years came against Miguel Cotto. A 5'7 guy who was well past his best days.
Canelo needs to put on a show in September b/c he's been in cruise control for a while. Not that Charlo is all that elite, but I think he's obviously a bigger threat than every guy Canelo has faced since Floyd, excluding GGG.
