    That's lame but in all fairness those are the three biggest names at 160, Charlo hasn't done much yet. Though I do pick him to blast out Jacobs.

      You said HBO shouldn't talk about him because he's on a rival network but Showtime is talking about Charlo fighting fighters who are on rival networks. Charlo and Andrade are the only two realistic next options for Jacobs and neither is mentioned.
      Yeah and Jacobs called out GGG when he was at showtime and the fight got made, HBO talked about GGG-Jacobs, showtime talked about GGG-Jacobs and the fight got made.

      So which is more important, networks talking about other fighters or Other fighters talking about other fighters for future fights? Jacobs called out Charlo after the fight, Charlo didn't call Jacobs after the fight because he is interested in keeping his spot for the mando instead of manning up and face JAcobs.

        After the lil episode Jacobs & Charlo had it seems odd not to include him on the list, but is anyone surprised by this? Thats pretty much HBO 101 type sh^t.

          What the hell are you talking about? Read the title again and the points I made. You're all over the place. If you can't stay on topic don't quote me. Talk to yourself

            If Showtime would put forward such a poll for Jermall Charlo, a middleweight fighter owed his title shot, they wouldn't make themselves look foolish by not acknowledging the viable middleweight fights, politics be damned.

            Showtime simply wouldn't run the poll (WBC, WBA, IBF, and WBO kinda, are all with HBO)

              None of the 3 are realistic next opponents for Jacobs.

              GGG has IBF mandatory

              Saunders is with Warren

              Canelo coming off a year inactivity and knee surgery.

                  It's you who isn't getting the point. You made the point about Charlo-GGG being talked about Showtime, I made a point about Jacobs-GGG being talked about HBO and Showtime when Jacobs was still at Showtime. Don't blame me when you can't put two and two together.

                    You added that part later. Don't play stupid. I quoted you at 1:19 and you edited at `1:20 When I quoted you you didn't have the other part in your post. And you still wrong about how the fight got made. It got made because it was a mandatory.

                    But since you wanna lie and act stupid have a seat

                      So why does showtime talk about Charlo fighting Jacobs and GGG? If this is the way HBO is doing business no wonder they're the 3rd best channel showing boxing
