Nelson is no joke. He's much improved and has had ample time to prepare for Andrade. Meanwhile Andrade has had a 8 month layoff following a 16 month layoff.

I actually think it'll be jrock vs andrade to determine who the best is at 154. Depends if they fight or not

Originally posted by New England View Posti know demtrius' family a bit. met them when maceo crowder, his half brotherIIRC, was debuting. crowder was a SMW / LHW, and andrade was actully bigger than he was. nice family. maceo is a very funny guy.
ate lunch wiht them, and sat next to demetrius at a fight. no joke, i thought he was a LHW.
andrade is one of the biggest 154 lbers ive ever seen. kid was asbolutely enormous for the weight. big hands. big neck. just a much sturdier build than i was used to at 154. looked like a world class athlete compared to the guys who were fighting on the small shows i was covering.
i think they should move andrade quickly to try and get him big fights or a shot at lara at 154. he's not going to have the same advantages in reach and natural size at 160, and he won't be making 154 for much longer, especially with long layoffs. as it stands, i have no idea how these monstrous guys make these smaller weight classes. gotta be drugs. i really can't see it any other way. it has to be done with IV drugs and saline.
15-20 lbs of food and water in 30 hours? sure.
He is a big kid and if his career goes well he will probably be up at 168-175 before it is all said and done. I'll say this though. His size is'nt what is going to carry him in higher weight classes. The guy has talent, a ridiculous amount imo. I only see one real flaw in him, his wildness, and I only have one big question about him, his chin. If he learns to settle down a bit in the ring and if he has a chin, look the **** out because he is going to be a big problem for anyone.

Impressive win vs Nelson would really get Andrade back into the mix at 154 because right now it does feel like he is on the outside looking with with his Layoff. Nelson is tough and very underrated, if Andrade has any rust, Nelson will give him serious problems
