    Your comment actually made me forgot I included the tweet, I was gonna add that in my comment too. 😂 You didn't read the tweet Andrade sent to Jermall? I believe that tweet more now than I did then because he literally did the same thing for GGG. You see who GGG fought in June & now GGG allegedly isn't fighting Canelo but Munguia in September. WhI checked leads me to think Andrade is telling the truth. He didn't fight Jermell because of the Roc Nation ordeal/bad business. They both say they would fight each other when asked but deep down I don't think Jermall wants to fight Andrade. He'll fight him if he has too but don't really want too. Andrade now, is talking Canelo & GGG cause they're on Dazn. But I can find evidence of him calling out anybody with a name whether they're a big draw or not. I've only seen Jermall do that for Canelo & GGG. Basically he never goes out of his way to mention Andrade. Andrade said something about mentioning him after that fight he had against Centeno. Jermall didn’t say anything.

    Again after this fight he never said anything about Andrade but he mentioned Canelo. When Andrade & the Charlo's got into in the hallway they telling him "stay broke." I could even say more things but long story short the energy is different for Andrade & that's for all these fighters in & around his weight.

    The Lubin win they discredit as well. Lubin just got caught, it could happen to anybody. Sometimes that's what happens in boxing.

    They not gonna appreciate Andrade until he does it to Canelo & GGG. I think GGG is gonna make Andrade look very good but I want that fight sooner rather than later because I don't want excuses about how GGG is old. Especially since a lot of people still feel GGG can beat Andrade. But GGG don't want it. I honestly don't know who's next. Too hard to find names that want him. I just don't want Andrade to get flack for it, people not blaming the other guys enough.

    His resume is better than its given credit for.
    No actually it’s not

    It’s far worse then it’s made out to be

    Again 30+ / 30+ Fights with 1 I repeat 1 past /Current / Future Champ who was a C+class German . It’d be hard to be a fighter as highly regarded as Andrade a 2-time Champ with that poor of a resume.

    There’s no other MW in the top 10 whos facedfewer Champs. There’s no other Fijter in the sport considered as Talented as Andrade who have fought as few.

    when you compare his resume to anyone else it comes up short . Probably now start to change because he’s with Matchroom and aging but right now he clearly has the worst resume among any 30+ year old strap holder from 126-HW and might be in the running for if not the at least one worst strap holder resume currently in the sport

    I’m sure under Matchroom it’ll start to improve but right now the CV of Boo-Boo = Doo-Doo

      For someone who's been a pro for 11 years his resume is extremely underwhelming.

        That goes to show you how avoided he is. You got lesser fighters who've faced more champs then him. We know what this is tho, "guys who were brought in to lose."

        KAMIL SZEREMETA is in the top 10 at 160 & hasn't faced any champs....

        Let me just throw this out there as well: being a champion doesn't make you a great fighter. Skills & talent make a fighter who he is, not an award (belt) or lack thereof.

        Don't disrespect my man's like that. You know he got a better resume than: Beterbiev, Russell Jr, Herring, Gvozdyk, & Commey.

        R_Walken We can nitpick & do age, side by side comparisons all day. If you take that in to account then yes his resume is even worse. I'm just saying based off everything I listed the guys he beat are better than given credit for.

          Not trying to be disrespectful to Andrade, I’m a fan And hope now that he’s with Matchroom he can finally get the big fights l, I’ve always said he’s a elite talent but he needs to fight better competition

          I’ll agree a large part of his sh.it resume is that he’s avoided and also when he was with a 3rd Tier Promo / Management team and his lack of buzz in the sport he was easy for the established Guys who are backed by the Powerbrokers of the sport to avoid

          You’re right with some of the names you listed , I bring up Past /Present /Future Champs while not definite I feel it’s a decent barometer to determine the depth of a fighters resume. A World Champ can usually be considered at least a B level fighter and even if not currently holding a Strap or their shot to pieces a easy way to tell a fighters Competition Level. Obviously exceptions can be made and it’s a very general statement and not 100% accurate but I think Andrade having only fighting 1 ( A low level Champ at that ) so far and a handful of actual deserving contenders doesn’t make a case for a decent resume and I don’t know how much credit you can give him for who he’s fought so far.
