Comments Thread For: Andrade-Alimkhanuly: WBO Formally Orders Mandatory Middleweight Title Fight

[John Locke]

This is a super good fight. Hopefully gets made.

Well, he keeps saying that no one wants to fight him. If he goes to the sanctioning body and asks for approval for a unification bout, he can use that as ammo to pressure the champs he claims are ducking him. Otherwise, Boo Boo looks like he's full of Poo Poo.

The problem with Andrade is he says he petitioned the WBC,but only mentioned it once his next fight was already lined up.

[Mammoth]

This is the equivalent of watching Ray Allen hitting 2 free throws to win the game & somebody saying well "it's Ray Allen" it's not like he was going to miss anyway.

It's a top ten guy and a better fight was nowhere near being made. It's much better than his voluntary against Quigley that just happened I can't just make a better fight appear out of thin air for the guy.

That won't achieve anything

Maybe not. What I'm getting at is, who's holding up these fights? Is it Andrade, the other fighters or the sanctioning bodies?

Andrade reporting on himself in a tweet is not a reliable news source.

Hearn said the same but yes, there is no actual proof and they could be lying.
