Comments Thread For: Demetrius Andrade May Head To 168 For Bigger Fights, Says Hearn

[STREET CLEANER]

If he goes to 68 he should be Nelo’s mando….right?

As per WBO rules but will Canelo honor it? Plus how long before they have to enforce the fight, it might not be right away.

[Boxing fan1981]

Now we will get Andrade vs Benavidez. Both want that fight

Yea ***ing right they do. Different promoters and both Beavis and Butthead are going to sit and beg for a Canelo fight.

Charlo hasn't agreed to fight him since the incident at 154, and Mungia has repeatedly turned down the opportunity even though it's for a belt and he was mandatory, he has no other options really at 160, so the movie to 168 makes sense because at least there's a few names.

The incident at 154 involved the smaller Charlo, not the 160 Charlo.

Also, Andrade actually DID have another chance to fight the smaller Charlo.

He was a mandatory challenger for Charlo's WBC title at 154 but chose to go and fight that small German dude for the WBA Regular title.

Not only did he duck his mandatory shot at Jermell but in an interview before the fight with the German dude (forgot his name), they asked him why he was fighting the regular champ instead of Erislandy Lara (the super champ), and he said that Lara is too boring and he would ony fight Lara as a last resort.

Yes, he literally said that, kettle calling the pot black and all.

Later, after he became regular champ, the WBA announced that they would be uniting the two belts and therefore would call for negotiations to begin within 31 days between Lara and Andrade.

Guess what Andrade did?

two weeks after the WBA announcement, he announced that he was moving up to 160lbs and vacating his regular title.

Can't make this ish up.

Guy is either extremely ******, like super low IQ stuff or he is just a plain scaredy cat.

168 is a dead division so this makes perfect sense.

After schmanelo beat a bunch of zombies

” . . WBO bylaws indicate that he’d be billed as a “super champion” and become a mandatory challenger for the belt . . "

So why hasn't he done this before now?

[Bronx2245]

You're probably wanting me to say Hearn, but Andrade has had problems before him so I'm inclined to think Andrade miiight be an issue too.

If it walks like a duck, and sounds like a duck, and looks like a duck, it's probably a duck! It's not that complicated.

We all saw this coming the moment Zhanibek became mandatory. Andrade isn’t interested in tough fights, he just wants to cash out.

I remember when you all said Sulecki would finally test him. Then Williams. He’s fought enough Zhanibeks. He tried to unify with Benevidez 2 weeks ago. Tried to Unify with Charlo a month ago and neither would fight him. He’s done everything he possibly can. Might as well move up and Canelo Can stay at 175 and avoid him again.

Because he was waiting for Charlo GGG and Munguia to step up and fight him at 160 first !

You don’t have a clue !!!

he never Turned down Charlo twice. In face he never signed the contract to fight him the first time because of the Jay Z thing that the entire world knows. Then 3 weeks after the Initial offer Andrade Did sign the contract to fight Jermell Charlo and it was Al Haymon that stopped it and CHARLO REFUSED!!!

He never had a second chance to fight Charlo ever. Then Showtime promised him a fight with Erislandy Lara and he Waited for 8 months for Showtime to do the fight !!! Finally Showtime told him Haymon would t let Lara fight him and he should go to Germany and fight Culcay and THATS WHEN ANDRADE SAID THE HELL WITH LARA AND TOOK THE FIGHT !!!

Recently he’s tried to unify with Charlo and force the mandatory. Haymon again stopped it. Then he even went to The WBO and WBC and asked them to Make Benevidez mandatory and they both agreed but ONLY IF Benevidez side would agree to take it. Which they refused. What should he do next ??? He’s literally done everything he could possibly do since 2014 to force a fight with somebody big and still you guys crucify him

I certainly never said Sulecki would test him.

Just stop with the excuses… Andrade beat Vanes over EIGHT YEARS ago, that’s still his best win. At some point he has to take accountability of his non-existent resume. Never fought anyone and never will unless it’s a cash out fight. The last 8 years of his career strongly support that.
