Comments Thread For: Hearn Pleads For Andrade Opportunity Against GGG, Charlo, Munguia: 'That's The Problem With Boxing'

[famicommander]

Its his job to secure him a fight with alteast GGG

Maybe he should fight someone good before he gets a GGG fight.

Because he literally has never fought anyone good. Ever. He's 34 years old, 31 fights into his career, and has 0 quality opponents.

Murata's resume is trash too but at least he fought N'Dam twice. That's more than Andrade's whole career.

But I'm referring to what Hearn said not BooBoo... He complaining when both guys are signed by the same promoter.

What do you expect? He's a boxing promoter. He's a slimy, carny, sleazy piece of living human garbage. Everything he says is a lie or an excuse, and that goes for all fight promoters.

For the Idiots commenting that Andrade should fight someone good to earn a fight with GGG or Charlo, dip****! Obviously the fighters see something more than the fans do in Andrade that worries them because it is really crazy how Andrade can’t get a fight. GGG will fight Murata and then fight mungia. Charlo is the only fight that makes sense. Jermall really should be called out for not stepping to Andrade or Benevidez.

Only a total clown would refer to an actual top tier boxer like Andre Ward in the way you just did.

I was never disparaging of Ward, he’s the second greatest 168 lb fighting of all time behind JC superstar.

But he literally had very few fans due to his horrendous fights at times.

Again referring to a top tier fighter as”lil G” is as pathetic as you can get, it’s on par with teen girls who hang on the words of teeny bop boy bands.

No Hearn, Demetrius Andrade is what is wrong with boxing. Fighters like Andrade want big paydays without being able to cover their payday, let alone to make a profit for the networks and promoters. They also want big money fights while having a thin resume and not fighting the high risk, low reward fighters like Lara and Charlo.

At 27 years old, the diva that is Andrade pulled out of a Charlo fight 1 month before fight night, over money. Andrade was going to get a career-high payday at the time, $300k, and fight the best opponent he could fight at the time, while still being relatively unknown.

Andrade pulled out because Roc Nation promised to buy out Andrade’s contract for $2mill, pay him $550k to cancel the Charlo fight, and offered Andrade $750k for his next fight under the Roc Nation banner. None of that happened, Roc Nation pulled out, Andrade’s greedy ass got played, and Jermell went on to make his resume better.

Another one: Lara, the WBA Super champion at 154, called out Andrade. Andrade had this to say about Lara.

“Lara a Last Resort, I’d Fight Jack Culcay”

Andrade: “I’m trying to get a title shot”

(Lara, the WBA Super champ, called out Andrade, offering him a title shot).



Andrade rejected Lara to fight the WBA Regular champ, and way less risky Jack Culcay.

I don’t know how much worse you can duck someone, than how Andrade ducked Lara. Maybe Bradley ducking Khan is worse. He really went after the WBA’s 154 secondary “champion”, over The Ring/WBA Super 154lb #1 fighter Erislandy Lara, who called him out. A legit champion of your weight class, the #1 guy of your weight class called YOU out. And you ducked him to fight a guy who was not ranked top 10 by The Ring at 154.

Canelo fighting Lara, despite knowing Lara has a difficult and boring style to look good against, just goes to show what a real fighter is. Andrade ducking Lara goes to show what is wrong with boxing. Guys like Andrade want belts and money while taking low risks. He wants belts and big paychecks, big money fights handed to him.

Andrade: “He won’t engage or try and make the fight entertaining, especially if it’s coming into my favor,” Andrade explained. “He’s just going to survive, try to run, try to do the little pitty-pat counter punches. I’m not about that right now.”



He said this about Lara, while being boring himself, and being turned down by big names because he is boring and doesn’t want to earn big fights by putting in the work, climbing up the ladder. He got a taste of his own medicine when Canelo and GGG ignored him and called him boring and terrible.

Andrade sabotaged his own career.

That is a comprehensive post that shows Andrade is full of crap and had opportunities and he let them pass by. When he pulled out of the Charlo fight, that spoke volumes about how he is not grounded in proper decision-making.

Yea, Hearn complains about promoter issues but he is the promoter for Andrade and GGG!! Hearn self-owned in his own statements.

So now you're saying Andre Ward is pathetic and on par with teen girls?

If he saw fit to dub him Lil G then he must have had his reasons. Likely revolving around Golovkin not willing to fight him unless it was at 164 lbs.

The problem with Hearn is that even when he says something that I like, essentially talking about making good fights, I smell business in everything. Business does not necessarily equate with we want as fans because money gets in the way!!
