Comments Thread For: Demetrius Andrade Might Fight Jason Quigley On Nov. 20, Eddie Hearn Says

[Boxing-1013]

"PS. Charlo and Andrade had **** careers."

That better? Middleweights aren't exactly testing themselves.

GGG has had a great career. Murata in Japan is not exactly an easy fight either, and GGG is 39. Best financial fight for GGG at 160 right now is vs Murata, but he's a better boxer than Charlo and more proven than both of those guys. Andrade and Charlo have had good careers, but are at the risk of seeing theirs slip by and not having any real legacy.

GGG was very fortunate he had Canelo there as his legacy/money fight. But he also was lucky that he was a better fighter than Andrade and Charlo, so he accomplished more in the sport before he got his Canelo fights.

GGG pre-Jacobs had done more than Charlo and Andrade so far, maybe combined. Then he fought Jacobs, Derevy, and 2 Canelo fights. Their resumes/quality of fights in their careers are not even close at this point. Some of that is understandable as GGG is 7 or so years older, and also those 2 guys should be just now hitting their stride as far as getting into bigger and bigger fights.

But if you look at their last 5 or so fights each, it's obvious they are treading water or even going backwards.

Come on dude you know why.

If you’re Andrade and you are being denied an in house unification fight for big money ro watch ggg get an easy Murata fight.

Come on dude you’d be pissed off .

Dunn, if Andrade wanted a fight vs a big name, he would find someone to dance with him. You know this. He may fight Canelo for 10 million, maybe, but otherwise he would rather take 2 million a fight to fight Quigley and Hogan and avoid a tougher opponent for only a slightly higher payday.

He didn’t look happy at the canelo presser.

I disagree. He wouldn’t be happy because if he beat ggg he’d be getting fights that lay him more than that.

If you were Andrade and see ggg doing nothing but waiting for canelo or Murata and available to fight and you’re getting this dude, would you be happy?

Well he went to the Canelo presser to try and get attention and maybe get the Canelo fight. I don't buy that he wants to face GGG, that fight wouldn't really pay him much more than he gets for Quigley and it's a much tougher fight.

To be honest I don't know what the gameplan is for a lot of these guys, as Canelo is fighting really strong right now and is probably having some of them scared to actually meet him the ring. But there can't be 10 different boogeyman out there.

If Andrade wanted to really test himself he could find himself a fight. He has had some bad luck but he's also not been the easiest guy to do a deal with either.

He signed with DAZN for ggg and canelo and he got neither. Then hearn makes media noise about charlo yet this is the type of opponent he gives him.

he can’t be happy.

andrades ****ty career is not about canelo or ggg, there are many b level fights he could try, but instead he does nothing but c level fights...
at some point he needs to do something, he never dared....

This assessment is unfair . DAZN hasn’t given him fights worthy of a champion. Guys will not fight him.

You misunderstood me...I 100% agree with you, just saying, this is no different from before signing with DAZN, but at least now he's getting a decent payday and that wasn't the case before.

Hearn gotta have buyers remorse on Andrade and Farmer. Heard farmer was making over $2mil minimum per fight. Andrade has to be the same or close to it. Neither of them moves the needle for DAZN

[Wacked_Out]

Id like booboo to fight Jacobs.

So they have to get creative with match making. Somebody in a weight class close to Andrade would take the fight even if it's a high risk low reward. That Janibek Aleemkanola guy would be good. Move up and fight Ryder. Something. ALL these guys at 160 are wasting everybody's time...
