Comments Thread For: Demetrius Andrade vs. Janibek Alimkhanuly: Purse Bid Set For January 14

[Jab jab boom]

Nobody wants to see this shet. Pathetic how there are only a few good mw’s and none can figure out a way to fight each other.

The fight with Williams was entertaining, this sounds like a good fight on paper. Janibek isn't spectacular but looks solid. Maybe he goes to 168 but most guys there are with PBC. BJS might not fight again, Callum moved up. So not that many simple options.

Andrade should've accepted the Charlo fight, but that was how many years ago now? Making one bad fight decision shouldn't curse a guy for a decade afterwards. Charlo should've fought him this year, but the business divide being what it is I don't 100% blame him. I like Golovkin but he did literally nothing all year and should've fought Andrade. There wasn't a single obstacle to making that fight happen.

boo boo gonna lose to a nobody, quick eddie swerve this one

[QballLobo]

Will Andrade ever fight another world champion?
Boo Boo thought crashing a press conference would get him a big payday but he got sonned instead.
Maybe earn a big fight in the ring instead of crying about it.

[Jsmooth9876]

He's had no issues fighting other eurobums so he should be fine with this fight
This guy doesn't seem half bad but if Andrade is all people wanna make him out to be, he should dominate this dude

[Terr225]

Janibek is not some scrub at all. I'm definitely watching this fight. If Andrade can dispatch this guy he's ready for anybody. Janibek hasn't lost a fight go watch his highlights the dude is a beast

[Kannabis Kid]

I know who he is dude. That’s not the point.

None of those guys you mentioned mean anything on his resume. Past prime N’Dam and then Brant.

You just reenforced the entire point of my post.

Dudes who wouldn’t be champion in a 1 belt era, becoming champion today. Or winning some version of one of the 4 titles per weight class.

It’s like that is the go-to accomplishment to show someone is good. “He’s a former champion”, “he beat that other champion”. It doesn’t matter when there’s 24 different belts you can win per weight class. Champion means nothing. The only meaningful champion is The Ring or Lineal champion.

Man, Brant won that ****** “World” version of the WBA, by beating Murata. Then Murata beat him. Like who are these dudes? (This is a rhetorical question). Did they beat Canelo, GGG, Jacobs for their title?

How the heck are you a champion at MW without even beating any of the top 3 guys there? Brant and Murata would both get completely destroyed by GGG, or MW Canelo. Only 3 real worthy champions at 160 in the last 5 years…Canelo, GGG, Jacobs.

Boxing fans need to stop pretending like these dudes winning these cheap titles means anything. It means nothing. These titleholders have beaten no one to prove they are champion.

That is the entire point. I don’t care about that Kazakh dude’s win over Brant or past it N’dam. He is getting a title shot over a guy who won a vacant title. This will be billed as a championship fight on paper. A fake championship fight. Stop this man. Speak up against it. Don’t condone such tragedy. Fans have a voice, we just don’t use it. Too many fans sit back and condone all this crap. None of these dudes deserve to be called champions. Right now at MW, only GGG, that’s it. He’s the only champion I see there. And he will destroy that fake ass champ Murata.

Imagine in the 1930s, Tony Galento going around parading himself as one of 4 HW “champions”? That is what we see today in boxing. Dudes who would never, ever be a champion in a 1 belt era, being champion today. And fans just go along with it. All these fake champions. It’s ridiculous. Maybe I am alone in thinking this way and everyone else loves all this fake champion BS.

Wah Wah Wah bunch of crying you do realize GGG is fighting Murata next right? Do you remember how GGG got his belt? I'm sorry I guess winning an interim belt against Milton Nunez and then getting upgraded to full champion against the killer Nilson Tapia is worthy enough for you lmao. So now it's ok for GGG to fight him but when Brant does and wins he's a nobody. If you go back and actually check GGG's resume you will see it's weak as hell I've been watching him since he started in the pros when he was struggling against a shot 154 lb Kassim Ouma in Panama.

You basically just summed it up yourself and are making yourself out to be a shallow fan of fighting. How do you include Jacobs in that list when he won his belt fighting Jarrod Fletcher? At least Murata was a champ when Brant fought him and he was an Olympian something you know nothing about obviously because you only watch marquee fighters I watch them from the start that's the difference. You are not a fan of boxing just the big names like a groupie everyone you listed resides on the western hemisphere but it's called world champion for a reason just because you aren't fans of those fighters doesn't mean they aren't or can't eventually be high level.

I'm not saying Murata is better than GGG or Canelo of course not he's honestly nothing special but he is a title holder and he is going to be involved in a unification fight with apparently one of your top rated fighters so if it's ok for GGG to fight him it's ok for Andrade to take care of his mandatory against Janibek regardless if you think he's worthy or not. Obviously he fought his way to the mandatory spot just like plenty of other fighters who have come in and upset the favorites.

Danny Jacobs won a vacant belt with win over the amazing Jarrod Fletcher who had already been knocked out in 2 by Billy Joe Saunders.

GGG won an interim belt against the fearsome Milton Nunez and was upgraded to full champion without ever even facing a former champion. But I guess when he was double digit fights in his career it was ok for him to make title defenses against Lajuan Simon and Makoto Fuchigami but if another random Kazakh like you say get's a shot in less fight's against a world champion he's not worthy? Don't forget that Andrade became a world champion by beating someone GGG eventually went onto to fight years later just one of the many 154 lb fighters he made go up in weight but never did so himself.

And what do you know? Canelo fought the almighty Welterweight Matthew Hatton for a VACANT title at 154 when Hatton had been campaigning at 147. If you want to get real about boxing let me know.

This is how ****** boxing fans are. I don’t even like GGG.

If you defend your title vs the best, you are good. If you won it in a sh/t way, but then defend it, you redeem yourself.

You started your post with an immature “wah wah wah”, so honestly I did not the entire post because you are clearly a kid, with child-like rebuttals. But no. I actually don’t like GGG, at all. Not even close. But I am a fan of the sport and I call a spade a spade.

[JakeTheBoxer]

How about Andrade dropping that belt to the garbage and fight somebody relevant? For example Benavidez at 168?

So you didn't read my post but clearly you did since you still brought up GGG got it. You didn't reply because you have no answer everything I laid out is factual and counters everything you said. You were the one who wrote me a novel first remember that I just had to make sure you learned something.

So now it's not about vacant titles it's about how you defend them lmao got it like I said hopefully Lajuan and Makoto get inducted into the hall of fame next year.
