    Mainly because he's never fought anybody.

      Getting a shot at the number one pound for pound fighter for three middleweight belts in a no lose situation is different than fighting Demetris Andrade.

      You coming up with excuses to protect the DAZN Duckers

        For less money than he'd get paid to fight Andrade now. That HBO card was slated for $2 mil total. That's why GGG wouldn't fight Dervychenko and how stripped. He would've made the same Vanes got paid. Now he'll make more fighting Andrade. Stop with the excuses for the DAZN Duckers

          Because nobody will fight him. You see the cycle?

            No he doesn't. If he takes that fight he's choosing to fight it early. That fight is not mandated

              They wouldn't shell out the money for Butler. Murata paid him more that's why he's fighting him instead of Andrade.

              They don't believe in Andrade being valuable

                You understand that boxing purses have changed dramatically in that time, right?

                For example, you brought up that the fight had a total purse of $2 million dollars and it involved GGG.

                GGG just made $16 million to fight SD.

                So is it fair to say that Jaime Munguia would make more money for fighting anyone else than he would have made for fighting GGG in 2018?

                Yup.

                  GGG is looking to fight an early mandatory instead of unifying with Andrade. Murata's name as a possible opponent is brought up for GGG more than Andrade's.

                  Jamie Mungia is vacating his WBO 154 belt up move up to fight Jesse Vargas at middleweight instead of fighting Andrade for the 160 WBO belt.

                  Canelo is fighting Kovalev but when Andrade was mentioned as a possible opponent should he win Canelo said Andrade is boring and brushed off the idea of fighting him.

                  BJS is fighting on the YouTube kids undercard and a potential fight with Callum Smith is next after their fights. His name is also still brought up in the conversation with GGG & Canelo.

                  Callum Smith is also mentioned as a possible opponent for GGG & Canelo as well as BJS but not Andrade.

                  Stephen Butler was supposed to fight Andrade as his mandatory but Hearn/DAZN wouldn't match Murata's offer so now he's fighting in Japan.

                  There are too many options on DAZN for Andrade to be fighting the level of competition he's fighting.
                  To be fair Dervenchenko was iced out also until Danny fought him because of mandatory status.

                  Tell Andrade to become a mandatory...doors will open. Period

                      Mikey chose to jump up and fight Spence, he sought him out. When has Spence jumped up two weight divisions? How the heck do you duck someone not even in your weight class when no interest has been expressed to jump up in weight? Spence didn't call out Garcia, Garcia called him out. Dude, you are reaching
