Comments Thread For: Demetrius Andrade Not Impressed: Canelo is Not Pound-For-Pound Best!

[factsarenice]

true but the real can see that his shot calling is low standard level. He needs to stop ducking Charlo, andrade and Benavidez

Canelo is smart and that's why it's unlikely that he'll fight them. If he does it will likely be a drained down Benavidez because he's young and style wise, David is the better match-up of the 3.

For the record, yes, GGG beat up Kovalev and when asked Sergey never denied it. Considering that Siergy Kovalev was still prime that's saying something. There is a reason that Canelo waitted for GGG to age out.

As for Andrade, nobody wants to fight Andrade because he is that good. Demetrius is a bigger, stronger, younger Lara style but better and he'll give Canelo fits.

For the record, Lara beat Andrade in the amateurs.

Now forget about that bigger, stronger, younger argument:
- Lara was 31 when he fought a 23 Alvarez. Alvarez was 155 back then
- Andrade is 33 in a week and Alvarez is 30 and is fighting at 168 right now.

Now ask urself this question and be honest.

If Canelo vs Andrade was made today for next May ¿Who would be the favorite on the betting lines?

Andrade is a great "EYE TEST" fighter, but here is a FACT, and by FACT i mean, not an opinion but a thing that has happened in the past:
To this day, Andrade hasn't beat a champion nor a former champion on his whole career, he hasn't proved anything to suggest he would beat Alvarez.

Now, that's not to say that he wouldn't be able to beat Alvarez, my point is that he wouldn't be the favorite at all, yes he would be seen as a legit challenge but nothing to suggest he is the so called boogeyman a lot of people make him to be.

Charlo and Benavidez would have better odds because at least those guys have fought better opposition.

Now, Plant's win over Uzcategui is better than Andrade's win over Martirosyan which happen to be 7 years ago.

Why did GGG didn't go up to 175 to fight Kovalev is he is so damn good?

Ridiculous to think a sparing session is the same as a fight. Anyone making that argument is delusional...

GGG didn't just best of Kovalev he beat him up badly. Even Kovalev trainers said GGG hit him with body shots that put him down and made him quit.

I'm sorry but just because you decide it doesn't mean anything doesn't make it true.

I've never seen or heard anyone say this but you. How is that possible when most people think Canelo won't even fight him. Last time I checked Andrade started in the same division as Canelo & has been an undefeated champion in the two different divisions they've been in together. This would only be true if Andrade showed major vulnerability then Canelo wanted to fight him. I.e. Callum, BJS.

I've seen and heard plenty of people comment on how Andrade would get spanked by Canelo.

As for showing "major vulnerability"...have you even seen him fight? Lol he's like an over enthusiastic poor version of Billy Joe. Two weight world champion? Without checking Wikipedia or BoxRec, remind me, who did he win those titles off and who has he defended them against?

[Squared.Circle]

yea and its a fight the clenelo can definitely lose. styles make fights

And people, for some strange reason, severely over exaggerate Andrade's style. Those that compare him to Lara or Trout need to get slapped with the latter in the face. He's like a poor man's version of those two.

Again. Anyone comparing a sparing session with a real fight but is delusional

The same people who say that have no explanation as to why Canelo hasn't fought him since 154. & why he refused to fight him for the last belt at 160. You think there's nobody who think Andrade can beat Canelo? There's always a collection of people who have opposite opinions. From professionals to fans, I can name those with opposite picks for both.

Poor version of BJS lmaooooo yeah right. Tell me all the rounds Andrade lost during this "major vulnerability" & the controversial decisions he got. You must think this is Callum & BJS lol. Fighters like Andrade are literally the reason BJS boxes the way he does. Literally.

Lol you must not know who you talking to, 154, Vanes in 2013 next fight Brian Rose. 160, Walter in 2018 because "the better version of Andrade" took PEDs for the biggest fight of his career, ducked the re-mandated fight, said his belt got "robbed off" him & proceeded to do not a damn thing to get it back! Lmaooo, Then Andrade defended the belt against Akavov the same Akavov who BJS won a controversial decision against. God strike me down right now if I went to Andrade's boxrec or wikipedia to get any information I forgot!

[xEcto1x]

Andrade is 33? Christ he doesn't have much to show for it.

[Alf Stewart]

Andrade claiming Canelo hasn’t fought anyone LMFAO meanwhile his best win was a SD over Culcay....

Andrade is getting stopped off Williams and then his bull**** hype can end.
