    You don't know what you're watching if you seriously think Boo Boo's got something new for Canelo. Canelo's right, the dude is boring, but if they did fight it wouldn't go 6 rounds. Andrade's got so many holes in his game. He's the most overrated boogeyman in a very long time.

      Boo Boo is trash and he fights trash. He’s not worth the sweat on Canelos Jock Strap so Boo Boo needs to go and fight some people
      Worth a damn and make the fight happen.

      Paper champs have this whole new sense of entitlement these days. It’s disgusting and they shouldn’t be champs in the first place. Andrade is one of the worst MW champs in history. Put that in your pipe and smoke it, then blast yourself if you defend Andrade.

        First of all, it was his highest purse at the time. Secondly, my beef is not ONLY that he didn't fight Jermell. He never fought Jermall, Angulo, Kirkland, Trout, nor Lara either! Now he's under new management, but somehow he can't get Canelo, Jacobs, Saunders, nor GGG??? Fool me once, shame on him! Fool me twice...

          Andrade was a Champion before any of the Charlo’s. If I recall, all Andrade ever wanted was a lucrative purse as a Champion. Wasn’t it eventually going to a purse bid? This wouldn’t have secured the purse he wanted
          Again, if he ONLY had a problem with Jermell...OK! However, he missed Jermall, Angulo, Kirkland, Trout and Lara too! C'mon fam!

          Now under new management, he has not fought Canelo, Jacobs, Saunders, and GGG! Do you see a pattern here? I hope he's happy with that WBO Belt! His career is worse than Crawford's!

            Is Canelo even going back down to 160? After fighting at 175 I would assume he would struggle and go to 168 if anything. Andrade would have great fights with Charlo and GGG if those guys were willing to take the fights. Andrade needs big names while he's young.

              Andrade with his weak resume previously dismissed the more proven Lara ironically with the claim that he found his style boring. In addition, he pulled out of a fight with Charlo because he'd rather beef with him on twitter and said he and Jacobs had an agreement to steer clear of each other because his priority was on remaining bffs instead of his legacy (even though the two aren't mutually exclusive).

              So Andrade has avoided opportunities to separate himself from the pack but he's acting like he should be entitled to be next in line? In his entire career at age 32 he's faced one elevated interim champ but he's questioning the resume of Canelo who's coming off of defeating 4 straight title holders in multiple divisions?

                Good question...If it's acceptable for Canelo I'm guessing fans would love to have Lomachenko skip Lopez because he doesn't like his style, he hits hard, and fight Corolla a few more times instead because he really likes that style.
                Man, Bernard Hopkins laid that "boring" **** out nice back in the day.

                "The great Sugar Ray Leonard, right now, if he was boxing, the way that they want you to fight, the people that pull the strings of the puppet, he would be boring today. Ray Robinson – the great Robinson – would be boring today…Because the feeders of the people that buy entertainment. They're being fed that if they duck, don't buy it. If they're slick, and they beat [their opponent] nine out of the 12 rounds, and the guy just can't hit him because they were slick and smart enough to hit and not get hit, 'He's not crowd-pleasing, he don't sell tickets.' Because they done fed the followers and they done fed [that] to the customers. The customers will drink anything that you give them if it's promoted right…But when you take away the skill and you take away the slick, and you take away the boxing ability and say that's not entertaining, or that's not entertainment, then, to me, it's like trying to erase a culture that you know has dominated the sport way back then where you were slick. And I'm talking about black fighters. Yes, I said it"

                  Then you’ve got nothing to be afraid of do you ? The fact is Canelo will not touch Andrade and his team knows it. Just like Able Sanchez once said “Andrade will make him look ******”. But what does he know and apparently Canelo’s handlers know that you don’t.

                    Andrade has skills Canelo has never seen and his team knows it. Ask ANYONE that’s actually been in the ring with him. He literally makes every top fighter give up and retreat. The difference is Canelo won’t back off and he will get hit like he’s never been hit. Andrade beats him easily and they know it. Canelo will never get in the ring with Andrade ! Remember what Canelo said at the beginning of the year. His number one goal was to unify before the end of the year. Andrade was right there and agreed to fight Canelo on Sept 14th and Canelo refused. Even after being offered well over $30M for the fight they turned it down and eventually he was given the gift of the WBC franchise and STILL had the IBF and refused to fight him after telling everyone that he wanted it more than anything. But not enough to step in the ring with Andrade after Andrade completely shutout Sulecki after Canelo saw Jacobs struggle with Sulecki he passed. And THAT is a fact
