WBC orders GGG vs Charlo.
Charlo signs to fight Sulecki 5 days later.
But the WBC didn't order the GGG/Charlo fight in December which is when the Sulecki fight would be happening, right? I doubt GGG would fight anyone till early in 2019. I really dont see that as a duck, more like a payday for December since there is no way the Charlo/GGG fight would come together for this year anyway, and Charlo will have not had a fight in more than 8 months if he passed a December opportunity up.

I’m a Golovkin fan but this hardly means he is ducking Golovkin. Good for Charlo to fight but this opponent looks weak. He should have tried and got Lemieux though Lemieux may still be eye balling Canelo.
I don’t see how this opponent helps Charlo but I do understand taking a fight. Golovkin isn’t fighting until next year and Charlo is not likely the opponent.

Agree. Said the same thing basically above.
But really Charlo’s lack of quality opponents isn’t going to help him get a big money fight. He needs to create some buzz and this is another fight that won’t do that.
Jacobs just beat that guy. Now we will get a direct comparison between Jacobs and Jermall against a common opponent. This would be by far the best middleweight Jermall has faced. The two middleweights he KOed were weak middleweights. One was a cripple for the fight.
Considering GGG made it clear that he wont fight until some point in the first half of 2019, Charlo is doing the right thing by staying active and not being stupid by waiting on his seat for a GGG fight.
And GGG is not making any Charlo deal or a deal with anyone else, until they find a new TV deal and figure out where Canelo is heading to.
