    Every matchuup you look at, you do an eye test on the skillsets of the two fighters. HISTORY PROVED triangles don't work. if he is so easy to beat, then fight him. this is how sports work if you ever played other than an EA Sports Game. Skill recognize skill. 147s know who crawford is, just like 154-160s know who Andrade is. We can play this millennial game of "who he fought?" He's an undefeated olympian and in the words of many analysts and retired boxers the real deal, so take his head Highlander style. Add Crawford to this list with his undipusted, 2 lineals, 2 ring.

      Andrade should call out Charlo - Derevyanchenko winner.

      Popularity? "Popular" are only guys that are known between casuals. I am not even sure Jermall Charlo is popular.

        I’m an open minded guy and often go out of my way to like someone. He hasn’t captured my imagination once. I feel like I know exactly what is going to happen every time he fights. I feel that everyone knows.

Hes basically a high functioning mayweather in terms of trash talking and fighting style he even tries to knockout his opponents recently risking his defence and chin etc. Why does noone talk about this guy? Hes such a great fighter. I think he beats canelo charlo and ggg and ive always thought this. Its clear hes being ducked and frozen out

          OK, U an Androgynous boy and most ain't. Create a new androgynous belt for For the rest of U Lady Laras to moan about and problem solved.

          Simples!

            Knock down his unknown opponent in round one, coast to lopsided UD.

              Andrade reminds of Winky Wright, good fighter but nothing flashy, no big KO power and low key personality means he sits in the shadows, he needs that big fight and then he needs to win big.

                theres a big difference in being ducked and being content where you're at.

                Its documentated that Andrade did duck the Charlos and if you look at what he's doing in the meantime he isnt even keeping himself busy with top talent.

                Yeah GGG could fight Andrande but its not like Andrade is calling for that fight either. And no, saying someone's name isn't the same as calling them out.

                I haven't heard anything from Andrade in a while yet I know he's been fighting guys who are litetally bums.

                Compare to GGG in the same situation yeara ago. Dude at least fought top 10 guys while waiting for better opportunities and looked good doing it.

                Andrade? Not so much.

                      He has an ugly style and he can't KO top fighters. He has been a cherry picker as well and has never fought a really good middleweight who is dangerous.
