I've never liked these flash knockouts, Watching just the first minute of the fight you could tell that this was gonna be a great fight.
Never in my mind I would've thought that Charlo was gonna hit Lubin's head at that level, can't say I'm happy because I wanted to watch more but props to Charlo he did it.
Can't really tell if Lubin is overrated because I honestly liked what I saw before the KO I think the kid is the goods, he just needs more experience.

For that matter of fact

Boxing is also a business and you gotta earn the pay day.
Why would Canelo or Cotto waste their time on either Charlo?
Who have they beaten?
Lets keep it real then.
If its all based on potential, then why not the Bros.
They crack skulks in every division, and they don't get the same shine?
GTFOH.

If you recall, Spence used to be a pure boxer, a mayweatheresque type of guy. But I watched an interview where Dereck James explained how he turned Spence into the knockout artist that he is now.
Dereck James is all about getting the KO, he doesn't believe in scorecards, so he trains his fighter how to best KO the guy in front of them.
If you noticed Charlo is using shorter punches and is punching a lot from mid and close range recently whereas before, when he was with Ronnie Shields he was fighting backwards (kinda like Lara) and counter punching from long range. This is how Ronnie Shields teaches his fighters and his fighters have no inside game.
But Dereck James teaches and almost opposite way of fighting, which turned out very well for Charlo and Spence.
Jermall is doing well with Shields because he is just a monster. He can hurt you with a jab and lights out knock you out from the outside. So for him Ronnie Shields is okay thus far. But I see him running into trouble should he fight someone with an inside game. I saw many opportunities for him to destroy Trout on the inside but he seems to not have an inside game at all. Whenever Trout clinched or leaned against him he seemed to just freeze up and try to reset whereas he could have just destroyed Trout on the inside with mean body shots and uppercuts.
Even from the outside or mid range I feel he doesn't throw enough leather to the body. A guy with that kind of power could do a lot of damage with body punches.
There are some fighters, despite his immense power, that he won't be able to KO with just head shots, he might need to work the body for a particular opponent and I feel he won't know what to do coz Ronnie Shields hasn't taught him how to do that. Or like I said, he might fight someone who is good on the inside or even fight a master clincher and he'll be rendered ineffective like Kovalev was by Ward.
He's mentally tough though and is good at forcing his way, but Jermell no doubt, having trained first with Ronnie Shields and now with Dereck James, is becoming the more complete fighter of the twins.

J-Rock would have to work his way up to get to that top spot, but other than that I don't see anyone else on that list
Oh yeah, and I still feel a way about the Charlo brothers...they're like seeing Migos in the ring but at least we know they can fight
