Comments Thread For: Andrade: My Hat Goes Off To Canelo; Went To That Weak Division, Got Those Guys To Fight Him And Make History

[bullydean]

Yep and everyone his promoter puts in front of him gets beat. Say what you want about Andrade but he still keeps winning. It's a shame boxing skills aren't appreciated any more. If he was so easy to beat, then why are the 160 champs unwilling to fight him. And when you say I'm wrong about that and say it's him avoiding the other champs....don't worry I'll gladly correct your @ss with strait facts. Facts are he beat a lot of these very same current champions during the amateur days and they don't want that smoke anymore.

"Say what you want about Andrade but he still keeps winning".
That contradicts not only your words but Andrade's as well. All the champs at 168 "still kept winning" until Canelo so they must have been good strong fighters right?

Watch your ****** mouth you cretin

If that's your response then you probably shouldn't even give an opinion at all. Boxing is a logical sport and if you're this emotional about a fighter then you're obviously a fanboy and not being a objective boxing fan.

andrade is good at beating average fighters but has yet to fight a legit top middleweight. Nothing weak about the 168 weight class. They are 8 pounds bigger than middleweights so they are a bit stronger and hit a bit harder,. Canelo has done so much more than Andrade.. Until Andrade fights and beats better fighters Canelo has no reason to fight him and many better and more deserving boxers to fight.

Temporarily fighting in a weak division > having fought nobody

Ah yes, Andrade. The crusher of nobodies.

But still, the facts are facts, 168lb division is without a doubt the weakest division in all of boxing.

Canelo can avoid Andrade for as long as he likes but it's really a duck, there is just no arguing that.

Canelo can avoid Andrade for as long as he likes but it's really a duck, there is just no arguing that.

Andrade has ducked literally every fighter with a pulse for 31 consecutive fights.

He has the weakest resume of any champion in boxing. All his best wins are against fringe contenders and he won his belts in vacant title fights.

Even Murata and Charlo, who both have paper thin resumes at 160, have at least been in the ring with legitimate champions (N'Dam twice for Murata, GGG next; Bundradge and Williams for Charlo).

I think Andrade was passed over by some fighter due to his style more than him being a threat. With that being said, I have a feeling he will lose to a lesser fighter before getting his "shot". Just a feeling and he's not getting any younger.

Canelo will continue to cherry pick and wait for Andrade to loose a step

World champions Andrade has faced:
zero
record in those fights: 0-0-0-0

What a clown.

Agreed, after all, Andrade can't force Canelo to fight him. Canelo can cherry pick whomever he wants. Waiting for Andrade to get a little older and slower is the right move. Good for you Canelo
