Comments Thread For: Demetrius Andrade: I'm Ready For Charlo Brothers, I Want Them!

i doubt that. he looked several inches shorter than trout and the same size as baldomir. 5'7 seems generous and factoring in that most people lie/wear lifts when they dress up i wouldn't be surprised if he was 5'6 in reality but 5'7 is fair.

he's 5'9
the baldomir fight was when he was 19 lol.

Lara and Smith are not Americans. The 154 division has plenty of talent, and if Cotto and Canelo join the division, it will be one of the deepest divisions in boxing. I don't think it will be long before Brook and Spence Jr. come up too!

Whats the point of having a "deep" division with Spence and Brook coming up if they arent fighting eachother , we had enough of this bull**** in WW , 154 is going the same route it seems , sad sad days.
I honestly thought that after Floyd and Pac leave WW everyone will be game to fight eachother as they arent waiting for that 1 big payday , boy was i wrong , **** matchmaking in WW at least we get 1 good fight in WW , but we shouldve seen more action there.... much more.

yea smith isn't american but he's also not talented so no point in including him.

That's funny! What's not so funny is that he just might be the one to get a fight with Canelo. I would much rather see Canelo vs. Andrade!

well trout's 5'9 and they dont seem to be the same height. maybe he wasn't fully grown yet in the trout fight?

We just saw 3 SWW title fights on one card! I can understand your doubts, that things will stay that way, but let's wait and see. Oddly, we might see Brook vs. Spence @ 147 next year, if Brook doesn't lose to Vargas or move up. I hope boxing can take of advantage of this moment. When you think about it, 126 to 200+ have plenty of good fights to be made! I think the networks need to play a bigger role (even bigger than promoters).

It seems like the closer we get to crowning undisputed champs, the more difficult it actually becomes because that's usually when politics rear its ugly head and messes everything up. Fuck the Lara/Charlo triumvirate, it needs to be destroyed.

Charlos and Andrade are though. And now because of them, the division is stacked? Lmao. Gonna take more than a few prospects to make a division stacked, I dont care what belts they hold. The point still stands, because people are familiar with their names, they overrate the division.

It's not just because of the Charlo Bros. and Andrade (who most still don't know), it's because of the boxing abilities of Lara, Andrade, J-Rock, etc. It's also because we can see Brook and Spence Jr. growing out of 147. I also like Tony Harrison and Erickson Lubin on the come up. Now, like I said, if you add Canelo and Cotto to the mix, you have a really solid division with plenty of 60/40 or 50/50 fights.

I want unficiations i want 50/50 fights i dont care about title fights there are way too many of those.
Lets see Brook vs Spence , you bet your arse that Brook moves up to fight the softest guy on 154 the second he gets mandated to fight Spence , want to bet on it?

No I don't. I'm just hopeful that boxing will be forced to change, and the networks will be forced to change too. Fans have to do their part too! We have to stop buying BS PPVs and only support the fights we want to see.
