Only a few weeks away! Hopefully both guys are already deep in camp.

Hope Liam smashes him.

Really hoping Williams can win this - he is looking a lot more solid physically, and technically, since joining with Ingle.

I am more unsure what to make about Andrade the more I watch his last few fights. I`m hoping Williams strength will be enough to dominate Andrade, and dissuade those winging shots of Andrade`s reeking havoc.

Andrade like to 'coast' during rounds and only fight for maybe 90 seconds each stanza.

Liam needs to be on him like a rash from the first bell.

Massive task for Williams this. Andrade is good. Love to see him do it though as I’ve always liked him

Excited for this....Williams way over due a world title fight....I dont believe either Smith fight were for the full bauble?

Williams been looking beastly lately, but this has been against limited opposition he can hit cleanly and he lost both times he stepped above british level.....Andrade prob has too much for him

I am hoping the switch to Ingle, and better level of sparring, will bridge the gap between the skill gap he has against Andrade.

The Smith losses were put down to lack of motivation; and motivation is what he will need most to stay on top of Andrade, and use his strength to break him down as he did against Fox.

Concerns I have is that Williams practically runs after an opponent at times; against Fox he totally forgot to box at times .. and Andrade swings those shots spitefully.

Hopefully Ingle can polish the rough edges off a bit more.

It’s a really good fight but my concern with Williams is that his level of opposition has been really poor. Fox is the only opponent of note in the last 3 years and fighting Andrew Robinson who, with respect, is probably area level isn’t going to prepare him well for Andrade.

FW used to be a master at it but he got it wrong with Dubois and Yarde and you can argue both of those didn’t have the fights they needed to prepare them for their step ups.

Andrade has hardly been fighting murder’s row but he’s got a style that will be tough to beat and one that I don’t think Williams will seen before.

Looking forward to the fight though.
