So Andrade is fighting the dude that got knocked out by Brandon Cook?

Jeez. Steven Butler, the dude who got koed at 154 by Brandon Cook, the dude who got koed by Munguia in 3 rds?

Steven Butlers only notable win is Carson Jones, yes the former welterweight with 15 losses.

How does Andrade plan to ever lure an elite fighter to fight him if he faces these kind of opponents?

Is Andrade just happy taking no risks fighting nobodies and making decent cash? Seems like it.

Isnt this his mandatory opponent?

[Idunnoshet]

I think Andrade thinks he'll eventually get the Canelo paycheck and is content with fighting sub-par competitive until then.

I heard 0 complaints from you when GGG was fighting all his bum mando's....give Andrade the same excuse you gave GGG, Hell I didnt see GGG jumping to fight him

[lolpz]

Butler decided to fight Ryoto Murata instead. Doesn't want that Andrade smoke at all.

Yep. Andrade will have to fight somebody else.....

Isnt this his mandatory opponent?

I think he is. He is ranked 1st by the WBO. The WBO always has such weak contenders and often weak champions.

[Rip Chudd]

It's a mandatory defense. Don't remember this energy when GGG was fighting his mandos

[GhostofDempsey]

Blame the sanctioning bodies who rank fighters and dictate mandatories.

I do. Just from a different crowd of folks here is all.
