Will Andrade deliver tonight?

He put up today no two ways about it, Benavidez is clearly a light heavyweight who is weight bullying, there will come a time he's drained at super middle and get knocked out quite heavily if he's not smart enough to move up before that happens. Haven't ever really held Andrade in much regard throughout his career personally but on tonight he's gained a lot of respect, ended pretty much the way i expected seen it all before (Brook vs Golovkin a recent example) where the good smaller man shouldn't be there with the good much bigger man but they showed heart and grit to stay in. There is no such thing as a weight bully. Both guys took the fight under the same conditions and both guys made weight. This is nothing like the Kell Brook fight. Brook moved up two weights to fight GGG in his first fight in the division. Andrade won a belt at 154, then moved up and won a belt at 160, then moved up to 168 and won a fight, then challenged Benavidez. Both guys were super middleweights before this fight and both guys weighed in under 168. It was fair. Again, stop making excuses.

No. No excuses. Andrade is 35 years old, an alleged two division world champion, and over 30 fights into his career. This was his second fight in the division. He lost this fight because he's trash. The reason he went his entire career up to this point without fighting a single other fighter who had won a legit world title (get out of here with your WBA interim/regular BS) is because he's trash. He ducked and talked his entire career and today was the day to put up or shut up. And he quit on his stool. He's a clown. Now, then, forever after.

He was fighting someone who is really 2 weight classes apart from him he did quite well considering the obvious size difference No. No excuses.

Told you. First quality opponent of his career and he gets destroyed and quits on his stool. He was fighting someone who is really 2 weight classes apart from him he did quite well considering the obvious size difference

Pillow fisted Andrade who fights scared isn’t going to bring sht lol.

I think he's too old and he's too small at 168 but I am happy he's getting his shot at a big fight

Feasted on cupcakes for too long I think. Still excited to see him I'm a big fight though.

Andrade is a slick fighter, so I think he can do it.

I feel the opposite I've yet to see an african American slickster lose a competitive fight on the cards.. judges have been coming in automatically favoring them so Benavidez needs to stop or dominate Andrade to get the W imo. Watch. Trey Shaw, every single post you make on this website is made with racist motives. No exceptions. Admit it, you are the alt of the banned poster Trey Shaw and you’ve been banned here many times for making racist posts.

He has not competed at the highest level and has never been pushed. Either he rises to the occasion or he will flop at the end of the fight.

No, he's not a good fighter and that's why he's waited this long to face a decent opponent.

If Close it’ll go to Bena he’s younger and they want to put him in position for Alvarez fight between two Mexican stars sell I feel the opposite I've yet to see an african American slickster lose a competitive fight on the cards.. judges have been coming in automatically favoring them so Benavidez needs to stop or dominate Andrade to get the W imo. Watch.

If he were a few years younger I would definately pick him for the upset. But i'm playing it safe and saying Benavidez edges him in a close fight.

Don’t overly rate either. Expect a close fight more than likely.

He looks like he has done the work and he is a spoiler boxer thats very slick, I expect his best fight the moment has been a long time coming for him. I think his lack of activity is his biggest handicap. It think it might take around round 5 before he really gets in the zone. He'll have to withstand the pressure until then, but if he can do that, I expect to see Andrade start to give Benavidez a lot of problems the back half.

For years he’s cried to the heavens about being avoided, not being given opportunities etc. Well he finally has one tonight. Can he walk the walk? He looks like he has done the work and he is a spoiler boxer thats very slick, I expect his best fight the moment has been a long time coming for him.

ive been impressed with his attitude in the run up, i hope he backs it up, i think he could do actually

For years he’s cried to the heavens about being avoided, not being given opportunities etc. Well he finally has one tonight. Can he walk the walk? I think he can. Absolutely. Tricky southpaw who actually has filled out for the weight nicely ... he has probably a good chance of winning this fight.
