Vanes nearly knocked him out.

In boxing talent goes unnoticed if not promoted properly. This shìt is truly sad. When I 1st got put on to this guy my eyes popped outta my head, I couldn't believe the people that were being promoted & put over him as if they were better.

If Andrade doesn't do something quick he's gonna be one of those fighters who only gets his just due & loved AFTER his career.


It comes to my mind often that a bunch of people who don't know shìt or discredited him are gonna be talking about damn he really was the best when his career is pretty much over smh.


If he was sweet they woulda took that sweet "0" long time ago. We know his difficulty making fights of what's been made public. But I can just imagine the hell it is behind the scenes.. this dude is the most avoided fighter in boxing & it ain't even close.

Man Canelo wanted to fight him but DAZN told Canelo he would have to take $5,000,000 less if he did.

I don't get it people criticise Golovkin's opponents even though he's fought the biggest names in the division, but then speak of Andrade like he's the boogie man even though Vanes nearly knocked him out. Double standards much?

Imagine any other sport where teams or players have a high risk low reward option. Pro teams have leagues and playoffs, tennis players and golfers have tournaments.
There's no option to avoid playing because you might lose. It would be a joke if the NBA Warriors had refused to play the Raptors because they might lose.
It happens in boxing because there's no unified system,
no sensible rankings and no penalty for avoiding fighting other top fighters.
As fans, we know it's a ***ed up situation that's not going to change and we're just happy to see the occasional fight where top guys face each other.

He remains the odd man out because he is a stylistic nightmare for everybody & is still a high-risk low reward guy. Dude has a title & they still act like he doesn't exist. Sulecki was a quality guy that gave Jacobs a solid scrap even though he got dropped and lost a UD. Andrade dominated him & had him completely lost in there the whole night. Stay active & keep getting Ws & eventually the pressure for the other guys to fight him will grow.

Andrade is terrible to watch. His best win is a split decision against vanes. A top 5 middleweight destroys him.

On top of that, him throwing up the devil horns makes me completely despise him.

Too high risk, low reward.

GGG is running after a 3rd Canelo fight. Canelo is trying to fight Kovalev first, and then will possibly fight Golovkin for a 3rd time. That leaves Andrade without a dance partner for another year.

There is BJS...

It's a shame. It's good that he is busier than before but he is still not getting those big fights. All he can do is keep fighting and keep winning.

Boo Boo is avoided for his style. He would be awkward for the other belt holders. I would pick him over any MW right now. Yep!

[djb914]

I honestly dont get it, he's a very talented boxer but never seems to get the quality of opponent he needs to progress. It cant simply be that everyone is avoiding him, there's got to be more to this...

Korobov Has Called out Andrade MANY TIMES, They talked trash at each other on Twitter, Andrade is the one that seems to not want the fight.
