    Andrade backing out of Charlo fight?



    LOL, says Charlo hasn't earned a shot and needs to come fight him on HBO. He never signed any contract yet. This guy doesn't know what he wants to do. Now he's saying it's too dangerous to go fight a Haymon guy on Showtime after he's been on HBO and now Canelo's on HBO, they're forcing a rematch clause on him, and he's mad he's not the main event! Afterall that, then goes and says he wants Bundrage!

    He really believes he's going to win the Canelo lottery. Like he's done anything to make himself into a marketable ppv opponent for Alvarez....

        He has a point. Why would he switch networks to get screwed by Uncle Al on crappy undercard fights while at HBO he can headline and possibly get a ppv fight.

        Smart move if you ask me.

          lol why the hell would the tv channel matter for them. Haymon on showtime or hbo won't matter. Judges will be the same

              How would the network prevent haymon from robbing him.

                    HBO's not in the JMW business because Haymon's nailed down every US JMW outside of Kirkland, Tapia, Nelson, Andrade, and Alvarez. Who does Andrade think he's going to fight in a main event on HBO? Kirkland & Alvarez won't fight him, he's high risk low reward for those guys.

                    If Andrade wants to be an HBO fighter, they'll expect him to move up to MW. He already passed up an instant title fight to be there and he doesn't seem to understand Alvarez is moving up to MW (gradually). Demetrius has big frame and looks to be a natural MW, I'd love to see him move up, 2-3 fights and test Golovkin. But trying to get this guy to take a chance in a big fight seems impossible. To think Showtime's already released their presser with him on it...
