Perhaps that Charlo fight bout to go down.

Good for him if true. Rumors were about Tszyu vs Gausha right? That’s an interesting fight.
Jumping straight into a Charlo fight from fighting Aussie opponents (Hogan and Horn are solid wins though) and Takeshi Inoue… one or two more step up fights wouldn’t hurt him. Exactly someone like Gausha.
Don’t think he’s ready for Mell, likes to fight too much and gonna get clipped at some point. Would be an exciting fight though.

Still undecided where he’s at. Inoue got no outside game and battle weary, Horn was unfit, used by date and a welterweight.
Good chin, great straight right and uppercut, keeps decent distance.
Takes too many shots against lacklustre opposition though, as you mentioned.
Great move though, career is firing up right now.
Gausha is a good 154 test for young tszyu... geisha will have to wake up and let his hands go if he doesn't want to get eaten up by the workrate
Soooo charlo movin up to 160 after he fights Brian

This fukker is the most bitter man in boxing, still haunts him that Ward took care of him easily with one arm 
As for GGG, his fans can do all the
idc, he never wanted the Ward fight, never ever tried to move up to 168, he was staying for years in what was the biggest 
of a division at that time with fighters like Geale being in the top 5 (well it still sucks but not because the low number of talent but because now they just don't fight each other) complaining about the likes of Quillin and Cotto not fighting him. 
It had a business angle, obviously, he was waiting for Canelo to grow out 154 but most ppl won't criticize him for it because he can't speak English and sounds goofy when he tries to. The "too goofy to do anything wrong" belief, similar to Pacquiao in that regard.
"Bu... but more people knew me than you" is the last rescue to these guys when they can't shyt on someone's merit so they have to try and make it about something else. If we gonna use that then someone like Jake Paul is even more known so suck on that. Ward has a better resume than GGG's and Froch's added to each other.

Nahh, Ward beat Kovalev twice, the prime Kovalev at that, not the washed one, that's better than anything Froch has done. You can argue if there are different judges the first Ward vs Kov fight goes to Kov but it was far from a robbery, 3X 114-113 iirc, that was within reality. GGG got the short end of the stick against Canelo, imo he should have edged the first and legit lost the second but officially those are still a draw and an L and against a smaller fighter not someone higher in weight.
And yes, Ward beating Froch also separates him

Froch also had a much higher level of comp than Ward...noticeably higher at that..the kovalev win isnt going to be enough to mask that..that is why there was an uproar of Ward being a first ballot hall of Famer
..stop stanning hard breh
