    He's a good fighter but still a work in process. I got to see last nights fight. I missed the card.

    Glad to see he won.

      His footwork wasn't that good. It amazes me how dudes at this level don't have perfect everything after fighting for so long.

        He's a good fighter but he can easily be countered by Lara and Mayweather. Lara will KO him and Floyd will take him to school

          After every shot he was falling into it. Maybe because his dad taught him he didn't teach him the fundementals

            Lara is probably the better counter puncher but Deandre looked much better against Vanes than Lara did. Lara would never stand right in front of Vanes like Deandre did. He's a counter puncher.

              Vanes was much more motivated against Lara - they hated each other, remember? Vanes came out possessed and took the early rounds but Lara had the fight completely taken over before it was stopped. Vanes didn't look motivated at all for Andrade and still managed to knock him down early.

                besides the sometimes sloppy slappy punches he throws and his lack of balance....he's alright!!!....nothing major but he's got room to grow...once the kid sharpen his sword and upgrade his toolbox, he'll be a force imo

                I'm still sleeping on him though...like I said, the young boy is nothing special....not yet anyways!!

                  The Rose Vs Maciel fight last month was apparently a WBO title eliminator, so Rose could well be Andrade's next opponent.

                  Andrade wins that fight easily enough IMO, but i don't see him beating any of the 'names' in the division at present.

                    Yeah, that's why he gave Floyd one of his toughest fight. Ever.

                    Get lost Jamal.

                      I gotta say the kid has the works. Good defense, stamina, chin, footwork, power and the skills to get far in the sport. I became a big fan tonight. Canela, Angulo, Molina and everyone outside of May and Lara should watch out for this kid. He's coming to take over.

                      I'm emailing Floyd and TMT right now and i'm asking them to sign him. He belongs with the best.

                      Who do you want to see him fight next?
                      I've been a fan, he would shut Lara down and prove that all the hot air wasted on him was for nothing. You saw Andrade using Vanes' head like a speed bag last night....Lara doesn't want any of that.
