Man, hopefully the wrong is righted and Andrade officially wins a title he deserved from a guy that was bought one.
Pascal-Hopkins Undercard: Braehmer-Andrade, according to Schaefer.

Super-middleweight Enrique Ornelas is presently in Montreal training for his first shot at a world title as he faces WBO champion Robert Stieglitz set for October 15. The Russian born champion Stieglitz was stopped by Ornelas brother, Librado Andrade in 2008 and will be making the third defense of the WBO crown he won one year ago in August. Ornelas recently jumped into the number ten spot in the WBO rankings is best known for fighting Bernard Hopkins last December, losing a twelve round decision.Comment

They're going against the weakest titleholders in each division (Braehmer might be better than Shumenov though), so they have a good shot at pulling off the upsets. Will be rooting for them. Heard that they are 2 of the nicest people in boxing.Comment

That's good, I wanted to see Andrade get a Stieglitz rematch, too bad Stieglitz and his management didn't.

I ran into him at the MGM Grand before the Hatton-Maliggnaggi fight. He was just wandering around by himself, taking pictures with the Hatton Band and just acting like he was a normal boxing fan.
I almost didn't talk to him just because I was taken aback by the fact that he was all by himself and drawing no attention. There were probably 10-15 other fighters there and they all had entourages filled with jackasses and wannabes and flossed so much ***elry you thought it was a Lil Wayne video.
Andrade of course was sporting a grey sweater, no ***elry, no watch, no attitude. He seemed genuinely surprised that someone recognized him, and he happily bull****ted with me for about 10 minutes.
I was happy I had the chance to meet him because I got the chance to tell him what a breath of fresh air it is to see a guy who fights his heart out every time and never makes any excuses.Comment
