Jermall Charlo says he's looking for a GGG fight

WBC middleweight champion Jermall Charlo appears on the latest Last Stand Podcast with Brian Custer.  The champ predicts what will happen if he steps in the ring with David Benavidez and Demetrius Andrade. He also talks about the much-anticipated Canelo Alvarez fight and when he's planning on moving up to 168. But before all of that happens, Charlo gives us the inside scoop on who he would like for his next opponent: Gennadiy "GGG" Golovkin.
 
Charlo says he’s working on getting a Gennady Golovkin fight:
 
"I’m trying to lock in this Triple G fight, I’m letting you know first. That’s kind of what I’ve been working on. At least that will give me a little more stepping power to say I can fight Canelo."
 
On fighting David Benavidez:
 
"Lets make that fight happen, I’m going to knock his little punk ass out! I promise that, I put that on everything I love, I give him about four rounds, five rounds, before I knock him out in five rounds, six rounds no more. He get hit too much, I’m powerful, I’ll explode on him, I do my thing…trust me. I’ve been doing this all my life, put me in there. I’m a lion, lets get it."
 
On Canelo Alvarez:
 
"We were at 154 together, 160 together, and if I campaign at 168 we’re at 168 together. I haven’t gotten a call from them, I don’t know what the hype is all about but I have not gotten a call from their camp. Their camp has not called me, they have not tried to initiate a fight, they have not even gone to the negotiation levels, so don’t listen to the hype."
 
On fighting Demetrius Andrade
 
"This clown, nobody knows him…I would blow his f*#king mind with these straight right hands, and I promise you he can’t even last five or six rounds. That pressure is different out here!"
 
On when he’s moving up to 168:
 
"I want to unify like my brother did. At 160, at least let me unify, let me capture the division, there’s somebody who can unify, we can fight. It don’t matter who got the belt. Maybe like two to three more fights."
