Comments Thread For: Tim Tszyu On Canelo Alvarez-Jermell Charlo Announcement: Canelo Ducks Benavidez, Charlo Ducks Tszyu

[Brother Mouzone]

Ducking him yet fighting a much better and accomplished fighter two divisions up.

+ I can't blame anyone taking the $ that comes w/ a Canelo fight .................

Charlo could have made 30 million in Australia if he fought Tszyu there. And he wouldn't have looked like he was running away from Tszyu.

I find hard to believe mell would get a 30m purse fighting tim in aussie land to be honest,hell not even fighting the cinnabon, you aimed bit too high there pal.

[Gary Coleman]

A duck is a duck numb nuts.

You have no grasp of what the term is. Go play outside somewhere.

Charlo could have made 30 million in Australia if he fought Tszyu there. And he wouldn't have looked like he was running away from Tszyu.

$30 million might not be believable, but Charlo making around that figure fighting the Mexican superstar is far-fetched. Very far-fetched. $3 mil is what PBC most likely can afford for a B-side like Charlo. Maybe even less.

[TreD]

What's, even, going to happen in this fight? Charlo loses to Canelo, and gains the same credibility Canelo gained by losing to Floyd? Canelo loses, and what value will he have as a top fighter?

This is a terrible, terrible fight, for both parties.

[Lefty0616]

Of course it's a duck, only a f00l would pretend it's not.

What if Charlo beats Canelo, and then asks for Tsyzu next, is it still a duck?

Tim Tsyzu is not that good. The last two opponents that he knocked out were supposed to get knocked out.

[Mammoth]

Being called undisputed lasts for ever, a paycheck from Canelo does not. But again, rationalize this shhhh matchup as you’d like.

Rationalize? You want to pretend these guys aren't fighting for money you go right ahead, bud.

I legit see no point in Canelo-Jermell. They're 2 or 3 divisions apart, with no rivalry or links together. They both have boogeymen that half the world is sure they're ducking.

So yeah, you can make the argument that Jermell is challenging him or something. This is a pointless fight, and an absolute duck by both of them. It's a waste of time. Not even a money fight.. just a pure waste of time.

[Fills up]

Fight an aging fighter, on the back nine, for more money, or a hungry lion for much less? It's really a no-brainer. Canelo is the Holy Grail of boxing.

Not everyone is a fan of the Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez-Jermell Charlo bombshell announcement. Tim Tszyu is one of seven combined mandatory challengers between the two undisputed champions and who is directly impacted the most by their confirmed fight September 30 in Las Vegas. The second-generation boxer expected to challenge for Charlo's fully unified junior middleweight crown by that very deadline and wasn't pleased with the update on his outstanding mandatory title shot.

I'd buy a ticket practically for the entire 154 lbs - 168 lbs weight class.
Charlo Bros. are the top dogs, Canelo is the Ca$h Cow, Tszyu is the underdog, Janibek is the sleeper and Benavidez is the most avoided.
