He obviously does not have the tools to beat GGG. He just barely beat a boxer who is about a tenth as good as GGG. Jermall needs to beat someone like BJS, Brant or Andrade and then GGG might fight him. Right now there is no reason for GGG to fight him after his poor showing in his last fight. Jermall has never defeated a top middleweight.

Does Jermall Charlo have enough tools to beat Golovkin?

People basing their opinions on the Korobov fight are showing their low ring IQ.
Korobov is a mover southpaw with good defensive footwork and stellar upper body movement. Golovkin is a sluggish orthodox fighter with slow hands and almost nonexistent head movement, horrible defense and completely locked at the waist. The two fighters couldn't be more different.

GGG is several levels above Korobov. Let's not forget, the general consensus is that he actually beat Canelo twice, people seem to have forgotten that. Either way you look at it, it was extremely close between top fighters.
Charlo has never shown he can compete at that level, not even close to it.
I know styles make fights but there's levels and right now there's a gulf in class between GGG and Charlo. Styles won't make up for that.
that is the fan consensus, which means nothing
Golovkin has shown that he is on-par with Jacobs, but sub-par with Canelo..... certainly in terms of skill, Canelo is a much more well-rounded fighter
I do not believe that there is a huge gulf in class between Golovkin and Charlo..... Korobov was a difficult fight to take on extremely short notice..... and styles make fights, period
we have no idea how Golovkin would have looked against Korobov on short notice..... Golovkin was unwilling to fight Derevyanchenko, despite having a full camp, and despite Derevyanchenko being orthodox and straight up and down
I would slightly favour Golovkin because of experience

But his chin is great and he's extremely strong where he will be able to back GGG up in spots. One positive for Charlo in this match up is that GGG doesn't really counter punch like a Trout or Korobov. He will also be coming right the Charlo which suits his style.
Think it is fair to make GGG a slight favorite but the fight could go either way.
exactly how I see it
