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

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.

Not happening and especially not in the next 20 days

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.

A mandatory unification ain't happening lol

So first they order Crawford to fight #2 Porter instead of #1 Vergil Ortiz Jr., and now they order Andrade to fight #2 Alimkhanuly instead of #1 Munguia! I wonder if they talked to Oscar first? Both #1 ranked fighters are his fighters!

Janibek petitioned to be mandatory because he was sitting at #2 for the last 3 fights, and the person at #1 refuses to budge (Munguia)

And there won't be a mandatory unification lmfao. How do you even enforce that?

This will be the 3rd time I’m his 13 year career that Andrade will fight someone in the Top 10.

Considering how terrible his resume is this is a step up, I suppose.

I have been expecting him to duck it, drop the belt, move up to 168, call out Canelo, and fight another no-hoper instead.

Great news!

Yawn, why are they avoiding making the #1 Mandatory. I'll watch and Andrade should win this easily.

I'm pretty sure Oscar didn't want those fights at all or you'd here him complain. Too bad. I'm Olay with waiting for the Ortiz step up but Munguia is like Ryan, all talk then a step down instead of up

If Oscar does not want those fights, why does the WBO leave the fighters ranked #1?
