Comments Thread For: Demetrius Andrade's Promoter Details Many Options at 160

[Sledgeweather17]

These sanctioning bodies always mess things up.
Andrade and Lara were both available right after the Culcay fight.
What did they do? They let Lara vs Gausha happen without imposing penalties.
Now they want Andrade back to 154.
Of course, Andrade would say no, what do they expect?
So effing frustrating.

Andrade already knew when the WBA would announce the negotiation period. This is old news, if I knew long before Andrade moved up then he obviously knew way before then. An article about that came out BEFORE Andrade moved up to middleweight, and he 'coincidentally' timed his move up before the announcement, and now we're supposed to blame the sanctioning bodies for Andrade's cowardice?

Remember that even before he became the regular WBA, he was Jermell Charlo's mandatory, yes, MANDATORY!

Lubin only became the mandatory because Andrade ran with his tail between his legs to towards the WBA route when the WBC had already declared him to be Charlo's mandatory after Charles Hatley (A wbc champion who won a vacant title gets two straight mandatories).

So he ran from that towards the WBA, and now he running from a mandatory challenge to Lara in order to what....fight some Foxy dude from...who knows where?

But somehow you Andrade fans expect us to believe that Andrade is the one being ducked? GTFOH with that shieet! And I say that as a former Andrade fan.

Wake up and smell the bull shieet!

Are you an idiot or what?
Why are you chanting the same crap that happened millennia ago?
Pac vs May happened after five years.
Meaning, what is past becomes irrelevant.
The period that was at issue was from Culcay vs Andrade to September this year. Anything earlier is completely irrelevant.
Andrade was ready to negotiate in September, which Lara totally ignored. Andrade got nowhere else to go but to fight Lara.
Now it's gone, gone, gone.

It's amazing how many boxers are suddenly making power moves to try to fight GGG ever since he looked like **** against Kell Brook. Before then they stayed quiet and sometimes even deliberately stayed away. Now they are all hopping networks on purpose just to get in the queue for GGG. This is what is wrong with boxing.

Lara offered him the fight twice Andrade turned it down... Why negotiate when it’s going to be a nightmare. So why not wait for the purse bid.... also never compare this too May Pac again. Homeboy is right Andrade is ducking 3 times and has the public fooled.

[ShoulderRoll]

I guarantee that he won't fight Lara. It's my stone cold lock of the week.

[JakeTheBoxer]

GGG will fight Canelo again and if he wins he will maybe rematch Jacobs and fight Jermall and then retire.

I don`t think that any of these 154 guys has a chance to get a GGG fight.

[Bossman15]

Wasn't Andrade scheduled to fight Charlo in Nov 15 because he needs to move and face Jermall to get the winner of Canelo vs Golovkin if no Lara Hurd or Jermell Charlo fight he needs better promotion

[icha]

just fight another nobody , i dont expect nothing anymore... waste of talent.... but it is what it is..

Later tonight from the Turning Stone Resort and Casino in Verona, New York, former world champion Demetrius Andrade (24-0, 16 KOs) faces Alantez Fox as part of the HBO 'Boxing After Dark' telecast. The bout is a middleweight contest. So is Andrade - who still currently holds a version of the WBA 154-pound title - now a full-fledged middleweight?

"I can't even answer that 100 percent, I'm not sure," admitted Artie Pelullo, the head of Banner Promotions, which co-promotes Andrade with Star Boxing. "Right now, he's facing a very good fighter at middleweight, Fox, the WBA has now ordered (Erislandy) Lara that he has to face Demetrius who is the 'regular' champion and has to make a deal with him in 90 days. So we're not sure."

Look at these corrupt people running WBA.
It's only now that they ordered Lara to face Andrade.
No explanation why they didn't do it earlier.

Dude there's a 90 day period for negotiations, aint no problem with Lara taking a fight as long as it doesn't overlap that period. Andrade could have easily taken a tune up at 154 and then he would be negotiating with Lara now.

Instead he ran to 160 to fight a nobody.

And wtf are YOU the idiot? Old news? What the ****! Charlo just fought Lubin last week, that would have been Andrade fighting Charlo last ****ing week if he hadn't ran away! That is not old news!

Bra are you the type of guy that pretends their girl isn't getting ****ed by your best friend coz you too scared to face the truth? Coz that's kinda like how this is. It's like you've encircled yourself with this wall of denial.

Fact is, NO ONE, I mean LITERALLY NO ONE has ducked Andrade ever! He's the one that has been duck and diving throughout. This aint even hard to see, it's clear as day light.

There's a difference between being a fan and a fanboy bra. Geez! Wtf did I just read!
