Wut?!?!
Dude couldn't stop a dude who was wide open. BJS wouldn't have been fighting like that. He'd been as slick or slicker than Andrade.
I think it would've been a uglier fight for sure. Andrade was kinda making it a boring fight when he realized he couldn't get this guy out of there. And I didn't see anything in this fight that suggests Andrade's ring IQ has improved at all. He was in shape & he was able to do some things that worked over n over that made him look better.
Nothing I saw last night makes me thinks he for sure beats BJS & personally I think BJS has more angles & more importantly a better ring IQ. Hell man I thought Walter K was doing some sh^t that suggests his ring IQ is as good or better than Andrade's he just didn't have the athleticism or experience to fully implement a successful offense against a guy with clear weaknesses & a passive counter punching fighting style thats gonna lose him most close rounds his in.
And fair play on Andrade being a passive counter puncher, but if you are a counter puncher you need that really good ring IQ like Floyd, like BJS, like Danny Garcia & like so many others. While I think you could easily argue Andrade is a more athletic fighter than all the guys I just mentioned his in the ring strategy/IQ isn't half of what those guys I just mentioned are & thats gonna hurt him massively in fights vs the best guys out there like Canelo, like BJS, like Jacobs, like GGG. He might be able to beat GGG since GGG is on the downside at his age, but I'd for sure pick Canelo, BJS & Jacobs to beat him.
