Comments Thread For: Andrade Not Chasing The Charlos, Says Erislandy Lara is Old Man!

[rickJen]

The one he wants are almost impossible to make.
He's basically saying he won't be fighting any time soon.
That could take years.

Boxing is so weird because hes not in the spotlight its easy to forget and the fight doesnt get made. But hes there at the same pressers as these guys he wants to fight and is always in the mix with there teams right next to each other and everyone wanting to watch yet the fight doesnt get made.

It takes two to tango. Andrade is the reason these fights aint getting made make no mistake about it.

When Floyd retired, the wbc belt became vacant. The wbc organised a mini tournament in order to sort out the a legitimate new champ. They put Andrade in their rankings in order to make him part of the tournament.

The first fight was between #1 and #2, which was Charlo (Jermell) and Johnson. Charlo beat Johnson and became the wbc champ, while Andrade beat Nelson in order to retain his position.

Then the wbc ordered Charlo to make two MANDATORY defenses (wbc rule when a fighter wins a vacant title), they ordered that he first fight Hartley and then ANDRADE!

What did Andrade do? He said **** that I'm outta here and went the WBA route. But then that interview came out where he blatantly stated his intention to duck Lara (WBA super champ). Claiming that Lara is boring and that he aint about fighting a boring guy and in that same interview stated that he is looking forward to fighting Jack Culcay for the REGULAR WBA belt. At the time he claimed it was because he wanted to have a belt to bring into the mandated Charlo fight, to make it a unification (this are all his own words). Yet how the **** that works in his mind boggles me coz what would it matter if he aint the real WBA champ coz clearly Lara is the real champ. Why he go after the regular belt, which makes him mandatory for Lara, and then claim Lara is boring and he aint wana fight Lara?

Also, why he now claiming he done chasing the Charlo bros when he actually is supposed to have a mandatory shot at Charlo's belt? Why did he claim he wanted to bring the WBA belt into that bout but now all of a sudden he aint about the Charlos?

This clown is in position to get mandatory shots at both Lara and Jermell Charlo, but he oh so conveniently wants to move up to 160 now? Defaq is this shieeet?

We supposed to believe he the one being ducked? I aint seen Charlo and Lara vacating their belts, coz that's the only way they could duck him. He the freakin mandatory to both.

So who's ducking here really?

Indeed, he got into it once agains with the Charlos last week at the Barclay Center.

I always forget about Andrade, it's easy to do since he rarely fights.

Yeah I sometimes forget about him too....lol....he do need to put in work.

the problem with boxing now is MONEY and you can thank mayweather for that boxers now dont want to risk them not making the big bucks by fighting just anybody so alot of fighters can't get any big names to fight them because they don't bring in the money if they fight pretty effed up if you ask me if you have confidence in your skills you shouldn't have to worry about the risk

So your telling me risking injury or your life should be for chump change??

Idiot this is the hurt business, if these boxers don't want to fight for reasonable amount of money then they need to find another profession. It's like telling a new bee keeper you are never gonna get stung. Boxers know the risk involved when they made their job boxing

[Bronx2245]

Says he would face David Lemieux @ 160. Somehow, I doubt it! I can't wait to hear Lara's response! In the meantime, SALUTE TO NATHANIEL GALLIMORE!

These NEW breeds are ALL JOKES!!!

Beat a RETIRED Rabbi or a WALKING GIMP doesn't make you special.

why wouldn't Andrade actually fight a tough opponent and try to make some decent money? Why waste the prime years of your career doing nothing?? No brains probably. Mismanaged horribly.
