    If anyone's avoiding Charlo, it's Canelo.

    Canelo didn’t file a petition asking to avoid Charlo.

    He didn't ask for an immediate rematch to 'avoid' Charlo. He filed it because he feels he deserves it and it's worth 40 mil against one of the biggest stars in the sport. Charlo is not even in the equation.

    Canelo used the WBC to avoid both Charlo and GGG.

    Also I don't think GGGs team have decided what route to take yet. They haven't said they won't take the ordered Charlo fight. Has Charlo's team confirmed they'll take the ordered fight? Because I haven't seen anything.

    Charlo is unproven at 160. No ones avoiding him.

    Canelo has a fight lined up. They haven’t withdrawn the petition. So it is literally to avoid Charlo. He wants the mandatory spot without fighting him. It is by definition to avoid him.

    Like you say, he has other options, and they are fine. But the petition is textbook avoiding.

    Completely disagree. The king doesn't mingle with the peasants.

    Charlo is still at the kids table.

    A “petition to avoid” is not avoiding anymore. We have truly reached the point where nothing has meaning.

    The king hides behind the peasants, some things never change.
