Comments Thread For: Demetrius Andrade Vacates WBA Belt - Focused on Murata, GGG

[j.razor]

Not one of them gave him any offer. It's probably ****** to stay in a division full of people fond of fighting truck drivers.

He's B side to Lara, Charlo and others, so he's not in the driver's seat. Quite ****** to assume he can just make fights with all these people not wanting him. I don't know exactly what they want him to do.

Just so you know one of the Charlo's tried to get him like 2 years ago & Andrade declined.....now he is asking for Charlo....he should play it safe & go for lil g.

Andrade is too loosey goosey with his technique.

He is a sucker puncher....too busy trying to be cute instead of setting up his KO shots.

That's why he couldn't stop Culcay and that **** he was in the ring with last night.

Fox is a club fighter...

If Murata avoids those sucker punchers while landing his own...he could get Andrade.

Andrade is there to be had..and that is coming from a long time fan.
He should keep Golovkin's name out of his mouth.

I have to disagree homie. Andrade fought a dude at 6' 5" & he didn't come to club fight, he tried to box on the outside but Boo Boo was too skilled for him. I think it would be a good fight with lil g cuz Boo Boo got the skills to out box him & lil g got pop & we saw Boo Boo get rocked before....

Andrade beats anyone at 154 and always has. 160 is different with his size advantage gone vut he just seems better skilled and meore equipped then the top togs at 160. Andrade is the mast undderated fighter in boxing

Jermell Charlo....Lions Only!

Andrade is a great addition to the middleweight division, I think he beats Morata and I favour him against the Charlo's as well. 160 went from being a weak division to being one of the strongest. Curious if the people who wanted GGG to 'move up and test himself' still feel the same way?

Fox is a light punching dude with weak resume.

What's your excuse for the Culcay fight??

I knew he wasn't going to fight Lara. God forbid that we actually see two of the top 154 pounders fight each other.

Sounds like you actually held out hope that he would fight Lara. That was naïve of you.

This guy was WBO champ and showtime offered him a three fight deal where he would get his largest payday to fight Lara in the third fight. Guess what, he pulled out of the deal.

Then they offered him another contract where he would have to fight Jermall Charlo, guess what, he pulled out of the deal and got stripped of his WBO title for inactivity.

Then he came back after a long lay off, and the WBC put him in the WBC tournament since Mayweather vacated the title. Charlo won the vacant title, and according to the rules for winning vacant titles, he had to do two straight mandatories.

Charlo's mandatories were determined to be Charles Hatley and Demetrius Andrade in that order. However, Poo Poo Andrade pulled out from his mandatory spot and went the WBA route to fight Culcay for the regular title.

Okay fine right, as WBA regular champ, he'll be mandatory to Erislandi Lara. Oh but why are the interviews of him saying he will fight Lara only as a last resort? Why are there other interviews of him saying he doesn't care about Lara anymore because Lara is too old? Could it be that he was planning to once again pull out of a tough fight?

Yes because a few months later he decides to move up to 160lbs, conveniently just before he is ordered to start negotiations with Lara.

Hmmm....maybe he'll still fight Lara, he is still the regular champ after all...oh wait! Did he just vacate his WBA regular title at 154lbs? Damn I can't believe it, he pulled out of yet another tough fight.

Story of Demetrius Poo Poo Andrade.

Don't be surprised if he pulls out of a big fight/mandatory shot at 160lbs too. It's his MO

He ducked Jermell twice. Two years ago like you said, and this year again.

Andrade originally was Charlo's mandatory after Hatley, not Lubin. Lubin only became the second mandatory because Demetrius Poo Poo Andrade vacated his mandatory spot and went to fight Culcay for the regular WBA title.

His idiotic fans defended that move because they said he was chasing Lara 'the true boss' of the division, but he pulled out of that mandatory shot too and went to fight Foxxy at 160lbs just before the beginning of the 90 day mandatory negotiation period.

Oh and by the way this is the second time he ducking Lara too, Showtime didn't only offer him the Charlo fight , that was actually the second offer, the first one was Lara.

So he ducked both Lara and Jermell Charlo twice.

No they don't, but I bet you the ones who DIDN'T want him to move up and test himself want him to move up now.

You would be surprised how many people still call 160 a weak division. In my eyes Andrade is the future at 160 after GGG retires or moves up and would beat Canelo, and both Charlo's, but Jacobs would be 50/50 but they would never fight unless its a big money retiring fight, Andrade said so himself, calls Jacobs his "brother".
