Comments Thread For: Andrade Back Training with Father, Vanes Deal Close

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Junior middleweight contender Demetrius Andrade hopes that his handlers can strike a deal with Vanes Martirosyan for a WBO 154-pound title bout in the near future. The fight is reportedly in play for the Nov. 23 Manny Pacquiao-Brandon Rios card in Macau, China.

“I’m just ready to fight. I’ve been waiting for my chance and my opportunity to fight for the WBO, and it seems like it’s taking forever,” Andrade (19-0, 13 KOs) told BoxingScene.com/CSNBayArea.com. “They’re trying to make a deal with Bob Arum and figure out where the fight’s going to be.”

Andrade was originally scheduled to fight then-holder Zaurbek Baysangurov (28-1, 20 KOs) on July 6 for the crown, but when the Russian pulled out due to injury, the WBO stripped him and installed Martirosyan (33-0-1, 21 KOs), from Glendale, Calif., as the next available contender. Andrade, a former amateur world champion, is confident of victory no matter who emerges in the opposite corner. [Click Here To Read More]

Andrade said that like he beat Lara when they met. Has anyone seen footage of that fight? Lefty vs. lefty matchups are always intriguing to me. I can't wait for Andrade to take this step up in competition. I think he's going to develop into a really good fighter.

Hopefully Andrade rids us of Vanes Martirosyan.

This is what I was guessing from his comment. Wish I could see that fight. I guess I'll have to do some research.
