    What the fuck were you all expecting from a guy who's never fought above 154 ?

    I think people were expecting for Charlo to have more balls than he does.

    By comparison Canelo's move up two weight classes to fight Kovalev and Manny's incredible journey spanning 8 divisions shows that it's not about weight only. Canelo's power certainly makes an impact in the ring, often leading opponents to adjust their strategies swiftly.

    Alvarez moved up to fight a borderline shot opponent in Kovalev. and he'd already fought at 168lbs before. not the same

    Charlo worked out pretty quickly that he couldn't dent Canelo, and that Canelo would KHTFO if he landed clean. So that meant Charlo was practicing his defense and stink. His left hook was his best weapon, used sparingly.

    Actually I remarked during the fight that Charlo had pretty decent defense, better than I thought he was. It's still a 50-50 fight with Tszyu at 154lb. That's surely his next fight, try to get some belts back.

    I've got Tim beating Jermell now. You don't go from packing it in to suddenly finding hunger again. I think Tim will just want it more.

    Ouah, brutal shit from Crawford but well deserved imo. Always disgusting to see a top fighter give a total non effort in his first superfight. It really hurt boxing...

    Let's hope that Doo Doo Andrade actually comes to win against Benavidez.

    Because Bud's an authentic dude. Doesn't have to talk trash and pretend to be a badass when he KNOWS he's a badass.

    He sees Jermell as the opposite - a fake tough guy, and an overall jackass.

    it’s a huggge step up in competition for Boo Boo, fast hands, good combinations(they look good against that level), chin up in the air, hands down to his waist…he will win a few early rounds circling and tagging Benevidez, till he gets hit…then it’s game over. Retreat, retreat, stink, stink…

    Joan Guzmán was Charlo's secret weapon didn't you know? It's quite amusing to see these retired boxers emerging as head coaches and trainers, especially with the likes of Joan Guzmán and Roy Jones Jr. getting involved. It cracks me up Roy seems to be taking the role foster daddy for the bigger Charlo. It's an unexpected twist in their careers who would've thought Roy would be Charlo's daddy taking him fishing and shit. Can't make this stuff up lmao. Bunch of homo shit if you ask me.

    If you have any nephews or younger brothers or cousins, you see how they look up to alpha males in their life, and it's the job of the alphas to mentor the ytoung blokes. Or maybe they just enjoy fishing and talking boxing.

    Yeah I'd like to see him pull that Roy Jones hands down crap on Benevidez. Trust me he won't dare. He'll run the entire fight. For 10 years I've had to endure hearing the Wakanda people say Canelo was ducking Charlo and Andrade. Charlo's got exposed and now Andrade is next.

    That "vato" can't produce an intelligent response unless it's AI-generated.

    Clarification the Wakanda people is the ldbc , Dontae and company. Those goofy race baiting channels. That's what everyone calls them not just me. No disrespect to the Brothas as a whole. Sorry you took offense to that.

    Reflecting on what transpired Saturday night reflects the current state of affairs in boxing. I wasn’t expecting Charlo to win but damn that was a non-effort. He didn’t even try.

    Canelo has slipped, though. He’s never been all that fast, but he’s looking noticeably slower handed now. Still has a poor gas tank, and really heavy feet. Benavidez probably beats him, as does Morrell. Bivol schools him again. I still think his next fight will be Berlanga, a guy that even at his absolute worst, he would beat.

    Charlo was satisfied with surviving while stinking out the place. For a minute I thought he was waiting to counter Canelo left hook or overhand right. Charlo wouldn’t even muster up a consistent jab.

    Canelo did the minimum to win and that was more than enough. Cut the ring like a prime Chavez, threw an anemic 30 punches a round.

    Yup Berlanga is next in May…then Munguia in September.

    In his the build up to Benevidez v Andrade Benevidez needs to insult & callout Canelo 24/7 act like boo boo isn’t event there. Call him a puto, maricon…talk smack about his wife/kids…make it so anywhere Canelo shows up people will call him a puto, or ask him is it true his wife is really a goldigger, is it true you met your wife in a Tijuana brothel, etc…

    why do you all think he fights berlanga?

    he signed a 3 fight deal with haymon, and berlanga signed with hearn.
