And even after this Mannix goes on to say what a huge fight Charlo-Andrade is.

I’m no Andrade fan and generally think he’s full of sh** but he is right. It’s clear to me that Hearn/DAZN isn’t/aren’t really interested in matching their champions/top contenders as they’d rather feed them one by one to Canelo. That’s why we’re not getting GGG-Andrade, that’s why we didn’t get Bivol-Zurdo, that’s why we didn’t get Smith vs Saunders. The list goes on.
Chris Mannix is a weasel too. -
I feel like this was always why they mentioned Charlo vs Andrade. Keep everybody looking one way when they should be looking the other way. Not one notable fight made between Andrade and Matchroom/Golden Boy fighters but Charlo was somehow the one who made it so Andrade couldn't get a good fight.Comment

So Hearn tried to offer Canelo the Andrade fight. Canelo rejected the fight saying Andrade is a horrible fighter. Why blame Hearn and not Canelo? Okay I blame Hearn if you want that. The biggest question is what don't you want about the Andrade vs Charlo fight when there's nothing going on for both fighters? This is clear diversionary tactic. It's a huge joke. Is Charlo blameless? Doesn't make any sense for people calling themselves fans when they're not pushing for the Charlo/Andrade fight.Comment

I don't believe Andrade wants to fight anyone good in his heart of hearts anyway, and I won't until he actually steps into the ring to do it.
He can say he wants any number of fights. I don't believe him. He's 34, he's only fought 2 guys ranked in the top 10 in his entire career, and he's never faced another fighter that has won a legitimate title in any division at any point in their career.
He tried to fight Saunders, I'll give him that. Not his fault BJS popped for PEDs. But that's still one fight out of 31. 31 fights, 2 ranked opponents, nobody top 5.
Blame the promoters, blame the networks, blame the governing bodies, blame the other fighters? How about Andrade takes some responsibility for his garbage ass career?Comment

Andrade is down to fight the big names for the big money, but his problem is he’s not willing to fight the dangerous names for little money.
He wants GGG, Canelo, Munguia, but no one else. That’s the feeling I have. Yea you’re a lion pushing for the big fights, but unless it’s an obscure and non threatening mandatory, he don’t want anything else.
Just leave to a different promoter already then.Comment

It’s actually quite sad if the premise is to agree with Andrade. Lol. Are we acknowledging his ego?
What does the Broadcast team owe to Andrade? They can call fights for GBP and Matchroom, not exclusively the Matchroom USA show.
Mannix can be biased to GGG and Munguia equally.
it’s pathetic that Andrade isn’t man enough to make his own shots. he’s just like the rest of fighters BEGGING for a Canelo fight.
BJS too is a 2 Division Champ, so it isn’t about “well Andrade is a Champion.” Hearn has to even speak up for Andrade about moving to 168. For 3 years Andrade said he was going to pester BJS by going to 168. This Rhode Island dummy still sitting like GGG at 160.
Has anyone ever heard Andrade call out a 168 Champion besides BJS for 3 years? If Andrade and his fans think he can outbox anyone then why doesn’t move up for his own sales benefit? When Nestor Gibbs asked Andrade and his dad, “would you fight Benavidez” he didn’t say Jack shet.Comment
