      Good fight, I'm not sure if Andrade is a middleweight though, we will have to wait and see. If he beats Korobov, he makes a compelling case for a GGG opponent.

      Most of Andrade's fights have been at Middleweight.

      He only fought at 154 to snatch a belt. He was draining himself to do it though.

      Expect Andrade to vacate his 154 belt after he wins this one.

        lol at the WBO trolling Saunders. But they fail to realise they are mocking themselves by rating him so highly when he has not faced anyone from their rankings.

          Great news! It's awesome to see him get the opportunity. Should be a pretty even fight.

            The WBO pulled one on billy joe. Even though I dont think hes ready for a title shot hes number 2. 1 vs 2 should be how its done. Not the champ from a lower weight.

                These alphabet organizations look really bad. Khan became #1 contender @ 147 after beating Collazo, even after being dropped by Diaz @ 147. Floyd is defending his belt @ 154, while fighting at 147. Manny is fighting at 144, defending his 147 belt. Danny Garcia does not defend his title, but fights Salka. Cotto gets the MW title from Martinez while fighting @ 159. This is just too much.

                  Great point. They're hypocrites.

                    Good for Andrade if he can pull that off it would be a good feather in his cap and hopefully some better guys will start looking his way. Even at 160 I think guys will not want to see a lefty with his sort of athleticism, range and jab by choice.

                      I think he's quite good, has been in scraps, and recovered well. He throws great combos and is always exciting, hopefully he wins, great addition to MW.
