    Weighed in at 155, didn't look gaunt! I've long thought he should try 154 although he's very tall, he's never been a big middleweight. He's lean sure but he's always carried some water weight during the weigh ins at middleweight!

    He's got a good nutritionist and S&C coach as well as trainer in Adam Booth, it will be interesting to see how he does in the fight. If he is comfortable at the weight and can rehydrate to 165+ then I think he could do very well against anyone not named Canelo!

      Hmm, you realise the hardest thing a fighter does is make weight!? If he was looking for an easy ride then he'd have tried his luck at 168! And what do you consider exciting!? As Andy's biggest downfall is trying to slug with guys instead of maintaining his reach advantage!

        That's the matchup I thought of when I heard he was going to 154. It would be a terrible fight, IMO.

        Supposedly Mundine was supposed to fight Andrade/Rose winner, but we all know how that turned out.

        I think I'm about the only person who actually is into Andrade. Of course I got to see him dominate at the '07 AMs. They need to set him up with some top comp after Rose. I guess I'd settle for Lee should Andrade find himself having trouble getting a good fight.

          We could see Andrade/Clottey.

          both with Star promotions, Clottey still a name.....could happen

            Have to say he did look good in that pic murph.Still would prefer to see him vs Macklin as much too get some buzz amongst the general sports fan.It's incredible how much it has died down once again since London
