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

[kushking]

Why does the Wbo order 3 mandos almost back to back when it's Andrade but doesn't do the same for anyone else? Makes me think Andrade wants mandos because he knows their easy work(even though Williams was a cherrypick almost gone wrong)

That said Alim is much better than the likes of Quigley

[Citizen Koba]

That's not a bad fight at all actually... Janibek is pretty damn good and physically he's close to prime though a little more seasoning wouldn't hurt him. I'd favour him over Williams too FWIW but I think Boo Boo's style ain't good for him. Got Andrade by closeish decison I reckon although I think Janibek manges to inflict some puishment on the way.

That's an interesting theory but I'd say Williams and Alimkhanuly getting WBO mandatory shots has more to do with Warren and Arum than anything else.

I know it's not the high profile fight he was looking for, but no doubt, he will be probably the best opponent Andrade has had at Middleweight. I don't have the list of his opponents in front of me, and if anyone can think of someone who's better, let me know, regardless this would be a solid opponent for Andrade.

Unbelievable. If you can't see the powers that be do not want Andrade to win, something is wrong with your interpretation skills.

Andrade wasn't about to be in a better fight

At this point Boo Boo needs to petition to the WBO for a mandatory shot at the 168 WBO strap. Or Petition to fight the 175 WBO champ

[famicommander]

Time for Andrade to vacate this belt, move up to 168, call out Canelo, and then fight Sam Eggington.

This is BS. If Andrade can secure a fight with GGG who fight now seems in danger with Murata or Charlo then I say drop the belts and secure that fight.

[SUBZER0ED]

If a promoter can petition the WBO to make its 11-fight boxer a mandatory challenger for Andrade's title, why can't Boo Boo's people petition for a mandatory unification fight against other champions in the division like Charlo? All this calling people out during the post-fight interview is just lip service and accomplishes nothing.
