apparently ggg would get a soft fight first, not sure they are looking to match him with andrade. why have him either get beat and no canelo, or have him beat another dazn guy that couldve also been used for canelo?
With that kind of deep investment they can't afford to leave anything to chance. So only a teasing build up fight for GGG first makes sense.
Good grief, at these kind of stratospheric levels who wouldn't be tempted to pull all the strings they could?

GGG's hard work is paying off. I think he wants the best offer for him.

I'm not big on andrade but he's better than the likes of Monroe. He'd school lemieux.

Yeah he would school him by 'Lemieux could not make the weight'. lol
Andrade is not better than Monroe-pre GGG fight.

He was dropped by Vanes. Lemieux would stop him.

LEMIEUX says he is fighting @ 168 from now on.

We know. Even at 168 Andrade would get stopped by Lemmy.

Andrade is better than any version of Monroe.

r.e Andrade. I honestly think GGG would make an absolute mug out of him. It would be watching though your fingers stuff.
Andrade is easily amongst the worst fighters to watch at the moment, BJS would also tear him to shreds.

Andrade is nowhere close to in shape BJS. Lemieux just needs one punch to land, and Andrade is not good enough to avoid that for 12 rounds.

Lemieux knocks out guys well beneath him with one punch. He can't do it to top 10 guys. He couldn't even hit GGG clean. Andrade would clown him.

I'd say Andrade is on a par with Monroe Jr that GGG beat at that time.
It's the truth, son.
A lot of American boxing insiders and media pundits
are really big on Demetrius Andrade, but I’m not entirely sure why, because he’s hardly set the sport of boxing on fire with his accomplishments and form in the pro ranks. He seems to have a decent reputation though.
Perhaps there’s a hidden side to ‘Boo Boo’ that he’s yet to unveil inside the ring.
I would understand if it was Jacobs, but Andrade, wtf ?
IMHO Derevyanchenko, Lemieux, Brant and Sulecki would beat Andrade clearly.
Derevo would beat him for sure. Andrade does have a belt, so it is a good warmup fight for GGG.
