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

[maguirre]

why in the **** did he move up before fighting anyone @154? the charlo and hurd fights were huge...?

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.

[aboutfkntime]

After that last fight, he has 0 chance of making it past 4 against GGG. Dude got hit, went the distance and looked horrible against a guy not even known in the division. He has no power for the division. Go back down to 54' little man.

oh, the irony

[Mammoth]

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.

Is Murata as good as GGG though?

[KING5TWENTY]

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

He is bigger,and he does a lot of things better.

He is one of the few modern fighters that uses the right hook...he doesn't have to step-out to land it.

Today's fighters are not used to that.

He also has a sweeping left hook to the body that is troublesome.

The way he sets up his body shots is another reason not to sleep on him.

The variety of his right hand is amazing....they range from straight lasers to Maidana-like right hooks.

We rarely agree, but the accuracy in this post must be acknowledged. Don't get used to it lol

I do think Murata is the right path to take for Andrade before Pursing a GGG, Canelo, Jacobs or Charlo fight. Andrade vs Murata is a EXCELLENT FIGHT!

It makes sense but I don't see it happening unless the sanctioning body forces the issue. If they don't I see Murata fighting fringe contenders/gatekeepers like at the Gabe Rosado/Curtis Stevens level to bid time until its his turn for whomever holds the belt between Canelo and GGG.

[yankees7448]

So long as Trip G get's the win over Canelo, I see him unifying with the Lemieux/Sanders winner first. That unification is what Golovkin has set as a personal goal since early on in his career.

Yup. I guarantee that whomever wins between GGG and Canelo will fight the winner of Saunders/Lemieux next if a rubber match isn't made.

Then Jacobs, and I would actually favor Jacobs in the rematch as that may be 2019 and Golovkin can't possibly hold serve forever.

That would be nice but if GGG comes out on top of both fights he'll probably face a mandatory just so he can get a breather. Jacobs, 2 fights with Canelo and then the winner of Lemieux/Saunders is quite the run. He'll probably pick one of the easier mandatories like Sergei D or Murata.

After that I hope GGG gives up the excess belts so he can focus on fighting the best and biggest possible fights rather than keep up with the mandatories. Except for Charlo. I hope that fight happens.

Middle weight division becomes more interesting.

SMH....Face it dude, the only hype here is lil g....after Brook everyone wants to beat up lil g.

Andrade fought a dude that was 6' 5" & shut him out. You need to learn something in boxing cuz I can tell you have NEVER been in a ring let alone put on the wraps.
