That fight was booooring. I can't even imagine how boring would've been Andrade-BJS fight. lol

Next for Andrade? Canelo/GGG- I don't even care.

Both Canelo and Ggg have my blessing to avoid this fighter. He’d be a nightmare to fight but maybe calling it a fight is too much praise - correction, he’d be a nightmare to catch.

Andrade vs Lara-the best cure for insomnia. lol

Jacobs vs Andrade it would be interesting if Jacobs could make 160 lbs.

It'll be great, if Andrade fights someone top, in order for us to have a more exciting champion to watch. However, there won't be a lot of proper names. Canelo, GGG or Jacobs, that's it.

Yup.

What about Saunders or Eubank Jr?

Saunders moved up. But I would favor him over Andrade as well. While Eubank would lose.

I think Andrade takes Eubank with ease. I’d watch him vs Canelo too, to see how the styles mix.

With yet another snoozefest, Andrade effectively discouraged good draws from fighting him. They work for show business, while Andrade only remembers the business part.

That's his style. It works for him.

Hard to criticize someone who uses a style that leads him to a world championship.

You want him to abandon it, become a brawler, and then begin losing just so fans can be more entertained?

It is a business. The money won't come Andrade's way once he begins losing fights.

Mayweather always stayed true to his style, despite criticism that he was dull. And it earned him a fortune.

Why should Andrade waver?

Don't compare h to Mayweather who was landing his shots. He didn't run from Canelo Also, Floyd didn't have much choice, as he was smaller than most of his opponents.

I think Canelo is trying to go for the bigger fishes and cement his legacy like Smith, GGG III and Kovalev. Gvozdyk and Bivol would be top fights too for Canelo.

True. Floyd was an action packed fighter compared to the likes of Andrade, Lara or BJS. Floyd was a dog inside the ring when the situation demanded it.

Andrade's not a particularly big middle. Spent most of his career at 154.

But again, how can you condemn someone whose style has led him to a world championship and an unbeaten record?

Andrade's using his God given boxing gifts and not trying to be what he's not.

Have you never seen andrade fight before. I remember you used to tout his resume before I helped you out. He's a dull fighter, I rarely watch him. But he's too good for a sulecki fight. He and charlo wasting time with fringe guys I stead of each other us why boxing sucks.

Andrade's a huge MW, that he fought at SWW doesn't matter, he's big and he was bigger and stronger than Sulęcki, he is significantly bigger than Canelo and GGG, i guess he weights at least 80kg in the ring.

he doesnt really look all that big to me. sure hes long-ish but his frame seems lean and not like a huge meaty guy boiling down

Yeah, a small dude.

i have seen somewhere his reach listed at 201cm! of course he doesn't have 201cm reach but his reach is very long for MW anyway, 187-190 sounds about right.

whats with this game of acting like everyone at mw is a giant except ggg

Once again many posters confusing tall with big. FFS how many times do we go through this?

Sulęcki is tall. Andrade is big.

True. It's a pity.

Lol at some guys. Andrade is a big guy, frame wise.



Look at his arms, shoulders and his back. He's bigger than Jacobs. Andrade must weigh around 185 lbs in the night fight.

He got the title gifted to him. When he had an opportunity to actually fight for a title against somebody with a pulse (Korobov), he chickened out.

His unbeaten record is a fruit of careful cherry picking.
