Excellent card bottom to top for 5 and 1/2 hours. Very good fights. Good early career prospects. Wars, good boxing, skills, bravado.

Good job DAZN!!

[brilo33]

yea it was a good show

[ironbeard]

It is time for Andrade to get his shot. He wants any of them. Who wants to step up? Charlo has talked for his entire career. It is time.

[KiwiRider]

Do I need to watch the main event?

quigley never even really looked that hurt at any point, just out of his depth . probably will feel totally fine right now and happy to be going home with some $$

True. None of the KDs were devastating, just pinpoint balance destroyers.

[brilo33]

[Perseus]

Good job to DAZN for yet another excellent show!

Great job to Andrade for delivering on his promise!

What was the thing in the ridiculous hat in the Andrade corner?
Only bad thing on the show. The camera people should have kept it off the broadcast.

[Ruthless-RKO]

[peter barlow]

Quigley was completely outclassed did he land a punch? Andrade has to have a top 5 opponent at 160 or 168 next. No more mismatches.

Demetrius Andrade finishes Jason Quigley in Round 2 to retain middleweight title

Demetrius Andrade can't seem to entice a marquee opponent -- or anyone remotely close to that level -- into the ring with him. And when he does fight these fringe contenders, the bouts often last the distance despite the obvious disparity in talent.

That has been the case in several of Andrade's recent fights despite early knockdowns. But on Friday night in Manchester, New Hampshire, Andrade didn't just drop Jason Quigley in the opening round; this time, he finished his opponent in fashion befitting the gap in skill level.

Andrade (31-0, 19 KOs) scored one knockdown in Round 1 and two more in the following round en route to a second-round stoppage to retain his middleweight title. After the third knockdown of the fight, mostly the result of looping overhand rights, referee Arthur Mercante Jr. waved the bout off without a count.

With another massive underdog out of the way, Andrade, 33, will once again call for the best fights and hope that someone -- anyone -- near his level will accept the challenge.

"I did what I said I would do; I looked good and felt good," said Andrade, ESPN's No. 3 middleweight. "I delivered a message tonight -- what's next and who's next?

"Every time I get in the ring, I do something different, and I can do it all, and whatever I need. ... You asked for KOs and I give you KOs, so let's go."

Quigley (19-2, 14 KOs) landed just nine punches in the bout and was clearly out of his depth. A 30-year-old from Ireland, Quigley struggled to defeat Shane Mosley Jr. in his last outing, and when Andrade failed to land a meaningful bout, Quigley got the call.

Andrade, a southpaw, can box and move with the best of them, but the aggressiveness he showed against his overmatched foe Friday night can only help in his quest to land an elusive marquee fight.

The most obvious fights for him are unifications with Jermall Charlo or Gennady Golovkin. So far, neither boxer has shown any interest in boxing Andrade.

"I'm 31-0, Olympian and world champion, so what more do I need to do?" Andrade asked.

The answer isn't clear.

Martinez-Arroyo bout ends in no-contest

Julio Cesar Martinez, ESPN's No. 1 flyweight, traded first-round knockdowns with McWilliams Arroyo in one of 2021's most thrilling rounds, but the bout didn't deliver a winner.

A cut over Arroyo's left eye was deemed the result of a clash of heads, and before Round 3 could begin, the fight was stopped and called a no-contest.

Martinez (18-1, 14 KOs) also dropped Arroyo in Round 2, and Arroyo was in trouble before he told the ringside doctor he couldn't see.

Martinez, a 26-year-old Mexican, retained his 112-pound title.

Akhmadaliev dominates to retain 122-pound titles

Murodjon Akhmadaliev, ESPN's No. 1 boxer at 122 pounds, retained his unified championship with a unanimous-decision victory over Jose Velasquez.

All three judges scored the bout 119-109.

Akhmadaliev, a 27-year-old from Uzbekistan, was slated to meet Ronny Rios before the contender contracted COVID-19. Velasquez (29-7-2, 19KOs), a 32-year-old Chilean, accepted the fight on short notice and pushed the action, but he wasn't on the champion's level.

Next weekend, Stephen Fulton and Brandon Figueroa will unify 122-pound titles in a Showtime main event. A fight between the winner and Akhmadaliev (10-0, 7 KOs) would crown an undisputed junior featherweight champion.

Reis edges Camara, adds second title

Kali Reis, ESPN's No. 2 female boxer at 140 pounds, picked up a second title with a split-decision win over Jessica Camara in an action-packed bout.

One judge scored the fight 96-94 for Camara, but the two other judges had it 97-93 in favor of Reis.

Reis (19-7-1, 5 KOs) has won six consecutive fights since a title-bout loss to Cecilia Braekhus in 2018.

Camara (8-3, 0 KOs) has lost two of her past three bouts.

[maverick23]

Reis/Camara - I enjoyed it. A well matched fight with an exciting finish. I thought Camara snuck it but I’m looking forward to Cameron/Reis now. Reis looks a lot bigger than Cameron but I think Cameron is more polished.

Akhmadaliev/Velasquez - after the first 30 seconds I thought this could be a complete blowout. Velasquez was a lot tougher than I thought he’d be. Whilst I thought Ak was in second gear throughout, Velasquez gave it his all and made it competitive at times.

Martinez/Arroyo - this really pissed me off. Class first round, good second round and Arroyo quit. His corner team stayed in and then I think he quit when the doctor asked how many fingers he was holding up. I don’t like saying it but I think it was fairly clear. Hopefully a rematch isn’t ordered as I don’t think he’s deserves another go and I’d like to see Martinez unify.

Andrade/Quigley - just the kind of performance Andrade needed. Quigley is an easy fighter to hit but Andrade couldn’t have showcased himself any better. Andrade needs a big fight next.

[margaret thatcher]

yep arroyo was an obvious quit job

[maverick23]

Just watched the prelims.

Coe seemed to get buzzed in the first round which the ref didn’t call a knockdown. Didn’t seem to recover after that at all and was lucky to get the draw.

O’Toole - big time KO. Pleased for the lad.

The Perez/Rios fight was a good fire fight. Perez looks exciting.

McKean/Hainsworth - seeing Hainsworth made me feel better about my own body. McKean wasn’t up against much but I think he’ll be in some good fights. He seems to throw arm punches and not have much natural power but he’s got a good work rate.

Excellent card bottom to top for 5 and 1/2 hours. Very good fights. Good early career prospects. Wars, good boxing, skills, bravado.

second!!!

Definitely worth my $99.99 for the year.

[gregregegg]

Dont quite see why that was waved off without a count, only 1 or 2 punches in the final sequence landed, not long left in the round, world title fight, and i dont think he was particularly hurt. Count and then see surey..

Also, Andrade fighting silly like that is going to get himself DQ'd, swining wildly at a downed opponent, Did it on the knockdown and then on the stoppage If that last shot landed that would surely of been a DQ loss for andrade, and he struggles to get fights enough with a 0 and a world title...

[Bandog]

If the winner of GGG vs Murata doesn't unify with Andrade next, hopefully he moves up to fight Benevidez or Plant next.

Andrade is big enough, no bs catchweights needed.
