9/30/2023: SHO PPV - Canelo vs Charlo (Undisputed Super Middleweight Championship)
- Thread starter Controversy
- Start date
A lot of these dudes have been watching the sports for years and still really don't get the sport.
If you think Charlo is going to be a power puncher at 168... you really don't get the sport fundamentally. His best bet is going to be to try to circle to the right and jab all night on some Lara shyt, but in terms of power, he's not going to have anything for Canelo. Conversely, Canelo will be the biggest puncher Charlo has faced in a sanctioned bout by far. People do this weird thing with power now that you either have Wilder, Julian Jackson one-punch destructive power, or you don't have power. "I mean, he's a volume guy. He's not really a one-punch KO guy like that. Ryder took his power, so I think his power is a bit overstated." Look, Canelo clearly punches hard af. As you start moving up in weight you're fighting naturally bigger men that absorb punishment better and that are more durable. Once you get to 160, in my opinion, you start getting to the weight classes where some guys are legit world championship contenders just because of their sheer size/toughness in the division. Yeah, there are outliers below, like Jarret Hurd, but you will see more of those kinda guys at 160 and above. For example, JCC Jr. does not have one world-class boxing skill, but off sheer size and toughness, he was a championship-level fighter. Canelo has been hurting these dudes and stopping a lot of them. He clearly punches very hard at 168.
This is diabolical matchmaking because Charlo is a name. It's a scalp, but it's a very low-risk fight for Canelo and he knows that. Some people will try to convince you that David is an easy fight for Canelo, but Canelo does not even believe that. He can seemingly mention everyone else's name as a potential opponent but David's. shyt is funny. I'd much rather see Charlo fight Tszyu, but I am happy Charlo will get a bag for his troubles.

Well done, articulated and explained in a proper manner.A lot of these dudes have been watching the sports for years and still really don't get the sport.

The part about Canelo taking the fight is what people aren't understanding. This is low risk for any boxer that is that much bigger, from a duration at a higher weight perspective.
You don't just go up to 168/175 from 154 and then bang, all done, you've acclimated to the new weight class and there's nothing else to worry about. The body doesn't work like that, power doesn't work like that. There's power from velocity and strength, and then there's power from mass. You don't just become a new weight instantaneously and off you go. Canelo has been at 168/175 for what? 6 years? He's developed into the weight (with the obvious special ingredients to help him get there.) But he still can't match the big, big weight guys at 175/168. But fight a guy who has campaigned at 147/154 his entire career? Ofcourse he's going to take that fight.
Canelo needs an impressive win to win some fans back
Mfs really got a passion for discrediting Canelo.FukkaPaidEmail

i don’t even like Canelo but nikkas turn into straight up boxing retards when his Name comes up.
Also,it doesn’t matter where Canelo started at he’s been slowly adding weight(muscle ),fighting bigger men and taking their best shots for years ..You don’t just gain 15 pounds in a summer and be physically ready to fight two divisions higher .That’s moron talk.

As in marital issues? Like divorce or something? Dont tell me the wife stepped out on breh after that wholesome Showtime segment they made of his family
that and also over money too...you saw it in his last fight against montiel...he won but he got lumped up.As in marital issues? Like divorce or something? Dont tell me the wife stepped out on breh after that wholesome Showtime segment they made of his family

Damn I didnt know it was this bad
Get married, brehs
She was right though.
This nygga Jermall was so obsessed with the Canelo fight, that he stayed on the sidelines HOPING Canelo would pick him as an opponent. Meanwhile, due to his expensive spending habits, he’s unable to maintain his lifestyle.
How are you gonna have a wife, 4 kids, and not fight hoping another man will give you a chance? Nah I can’t side with Jermall on this and I’m always hard on these hoes
