    This would certainly be a good fight, andrade hasn't done himself any favours; not building Up a decent fanbase or taken on meaningful opposition, then he says in the interview he has to take on a soft touch to knock off some ring rust, well he seems to be his own worse enemy.

    Anyways good luck to him, fingers crossed we get to see him and plant fight

      Nossir, plant the better fighter. However, that fight never happened due to the culture of doping witn matchroom fighters

          Well it's a fight I'd be very interested in seeing. Even if there is more chance they both get struck by lighting on the same day.

                What pisses me off is that he's had a year now to "tune up". What have you been doing?!!! Out of work for a year?? And it's normal. Can these guys please bother to check in to work one time in a year? I mean, I just read about a prospect fighting another hopeless bum. Can you please at least do that??? Boxing today just sucks.

                Imagine if this were the norm for atheletes in other sports; This December, for the first time since 2021, the Dallas Cowboys will be in action as they get set to face the Seattle Seahawks, in a tune up for a potential 2023 matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs. The matchup is still in negotiations, but Jerry Jones thinks the game can get made. The Eagles are refusing to step down to allow it to happen however. And the Buffalo Bills are threatening the AFC West with lawsuits claiming they've been passed up as the mandatory since 2017.

                  He should keep begging for Benavidez, much better fight IMO and exposes Benavidez/his team is as not really being ready to take on anyone as they suggest.

                    If Andrade was behind on a mortgage, owed back taxes, or something of that nature, he would have fought 2-3 times this year. Fighters these days at the higher levels make so much money that they can coast for 6 months to a year. Then sometimes an opponent comes along who comes from a place of no money and is hungry and determined and upsets the elite fighter. Andrade does not have the hunger for boxing or he would have been itching to get into the ring. Now it is near a "What could have been" scenario with his career. When I saw him in his early pro fights, he looked great and the expectations were high. Really anticlimactic career.
