LOL, says Charlo hasn't earned a shot and needs to come fight him on HBO. He never signed any contract yet. This guy doesn't know what he wants to do. Now he's saying it's too dangerous to go fight a Haymon guy on Showtime after he's been on HBO and now Canelo's on HBO, they're forcing a rematch clause on him, and he's mad he's not the main event! Afterall that, then goes and says he wants Bundrage!
He really believes he's going to win the Canelo lottery. Like he's done anything to make himself into a marketable ppv opponent for Alvarez....
I can see his reluctance in jumping over to showtime. I understand that part. That is too risky. He has the belt so the challengers should come to his stomping ground. To turn down that $200,000 to fight Korabov though bugs me.
Andrade is disappointing. He is just getting rolling, but already looking for the big money fights.
It takes baby steps. He could have won a middleweight strap, and got in on other sweepstakes.
Six months ago I was on here stating that Andrade is bold and seems to be willing to fight anyone. Now he does not even seem to want to fight period.
That ghetto Rhode Island accent doe. :lol1: "Don't feel like he'd do anything foh me as fah as othah than give me a little mohe respect..."
Andrade needs to realize he isn't anyone, and he will have to prove himself against the Charlos and Korobov's of the world until bigger names have a reason to fight him. That's how boxing works, man, you don't get big fights without earning them unless you have someone important behind you.
The real reason.... Andrade was offered the fight at less than 1/4 of his minimum purse guaranty! Why the hell would he fight an undefeated up and coming fighter for that! On top of that Thurman is fighting a 39 year old man for a million dollars on the same card!!
AND the reason he pulled out of the Korobov match was that Quillen pulled out for 1.4 million! Andrade was offered $200,000 !!! Andrade would have fought him in a minute for less than a 1/4 of Quillens purse!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT IS THE REAL TRUTH
This seems credible to me. So who do you blame for most of the problem? Golden Boy? Showtime? Al Haymon?

Sounds like he needs to join the haymon team lol

Either Charlo brother gets in that ass.
I think he would beat both of them tbh. Too many dudes get robbed fighting Hymen boxers and he would be an HBO boxer fighting on a network that is dominated by Hymen boxers. I think it speaks more to the stellar rep that Hymen has. Sure Andrade is over selling his worth a bit but he has a valid point, boxing is corrupt enough, Hymen takes it to another level though.
All the top names at 154 are with Showtime besides Canelo and Canelos last few have been above 154. Kirkland also.
Mayweather
Lara
Trout
Vanes
Smith
and the guys not tied down to a network K9, Clottey.
Like it or not the Charlo's or at least Jermell are top guys at 154.
Unless wants to make a move to 160 than all the guys are over at HBO besides Quillen and Jacobs.
I'm sorry but andrade hasint done shlt.He needs to keep busy
and build his name.It seems like hes wants a big payday but he
hasint done shlt.Hes not getting a million dollar payday unless hes
with arum,gbp,haymon basically the big dogs in charge.
Am I the only one who thinks Andrade would beat Canelo?
EASILY! It would take yet another controversial decision IMO for Canelo to beat Andrade
I don't care about him not fight Charlo...Andrade still the most talented fighter at 154 IMO. He is going backwards trying to chase the Charlo Brothers instead of going forward and trying to fight Canelo and some of the other fighters at 154 who are considered THE BEST.
I am fully aboard the Andrade bandwagon but this is looking shaky. To me he thinks Charlo is a bit too risky for what he MAY get. Which is another belt or a bigger name.
Seems like there's a problem with him and his promoter if he's saying he hasn't seen a contract or that his promoter is throwing stuff out there without having actually secured fights
Canelo vs Lara, Loma vs Russell, Molina vs Soto
That is not true. Most of the corruption we see I don't even think is due to the "promoters". It is due to the gambling states protecting the gambling houses. It is not promoters lining the pockets, it is the Casino's doing it.
That is where the real big money is, and as with most things follow the money and you will find your answers. Look at some of the fights where just one card is whacked out, doesn't change the outcome in most cases but how many people are picking majority decision over unanimous. I can't recall once personally I ever bet on a majority decision to occur.
You could also equate what I said as "home turf" to be "monetary interests" or what fighter does it pay to have win.
He has a point. Why would he switch networks to get screwed by Uncle Al on crappy undercard fights while at HBO he can headline and possibly get a ppv fight.
Smart move if you ask me.
exactly, look at what happened to vasquez. that being said, andrade would school any charlo
