    I think GGG wins.

    Andrade hasn't fought anyone & vs two of his 3 'good' wins (Vanes and Culcay) he hardly looked great. Upto now he is the biggest hypejob in boxing. He gets the benefit of the doubt in every fight despite never being tested or fighting anyone that can remotely punch.
    All this hands down, lateral movement looks good and works at a certain level but very few fighters can make it work at the top and tbh he doesn't have amazing reflexes and I am not totally sold on his chin.

    I suspect he will look good early then GGG will realise he can't punch and bludgeon him.

    As slippery, as slick and awkward as he maybe the guy is hopelessly featherfisted. Its not all about power but I just don't feel he has the spite needed to keep GGG honest not to mention all the other areas he is unproven in.

      If Hearn is as invested as he claims he is in regards to his fighters he will get them fights.

      Andrade is still fighting far sub par opponents and people like YOU are making excuses for him.

      If he fought Williams next, a fight I think he loses, at least it will be a big step in the right direction.

        You’re not alone. I don’t get the hype either. He’s awkward but that’s about it.

          Think it should happen, doubtful it does though.

            Of course he’s ATG at 160, HOF no doubt overall in the grand scheme of things.

              who cares what Eddie Hearn wants

              the only question is... will Golovkin take that fight ?

              nothing else is relevant when it comes to Golovkin v Andrade

                  I don't agree with it, but it's what it is.



                  props for your honesty

                  NOTE: you are NOT a ggg-guy... you are clearly a boxing guy

                  BIG difference

                  G has already walked away from that fight on multiple occasions

                    I wouldn't mind seeing it. I think GGG still has enough in the tank and wins this one.

                    Canelo is the fight Golovkin will want but he's tied up for a while with with Yildirim and BJS it looks like.

                    The DAZN link is there so it does seem a good option.

                      ggg will find a way out if that is true plus eddie is full of crap anyway. He stated that he wants to make ggg/canelo 3 for dazn, and now he switches his tune. He is all smoke and mirrors.
