If Andrade wins vs Nicholson, who could be his next opponent on PBC?
My guess is Anthony Dirrell but Truax , Ronald Ellis, Kyrone Davis, Alexis Angulo or even the loser of Plant-Benavidez fight may be viable options for Andrade

Anything less than the Plant/Benavidez fight, or Charlo will be a major disappointment. But hey, we're getting used to that with Andrade.apollo creed wrote: ↑06 Jan 2023, 16:14 My guess is Anthony Dirrell but Truax , Ronald Ellis, Kyrone Davis, Alexis Angulo or even the loser of Plant-Benavidez fight may be viable options for Andrade![]()

Gawd Dirrell was done years ago.
Honestly, I've given up on him. It's all hot air and posturing on social media, and I have had a guts full of that nonsense.

I really doubt that Plant-Bena winner or Charlo would want to fight Andrade. Maybe the loser of Plant-Bena fight would be matched vs Andrade.Bandog wrote: ↑06 Jan 2023, 19:58Anything less than the Plant/Benavidez fight, or Charlo will be a major disappointment.

Bena-Plant winner is gonna want to fight Canelo or at least Mall Charlo. Payday baby!

Re: If Andrade wins vs Nicholson, who could be his next opponent on PBC?
Yeah, but he's the PBC's "plan B,C&D" at 168. I could see a fight between Andrade and Dirrell. José Uzcátegui is another one too.
Re: If Andrade wins vs Nicholson, who could be his next opponent on PBC?
Uzcategui is a good shout, that sounds realistic. Possibly Plant-Benavidez loser if that fight is competitive but not enough for a rematch. Maybe Bazinyan in a WBO eliminator (2 and 3 atm) if Plant beats Benavidez and becomes WBC mando?

uzcategui just got beat pretty handily by shishkin, needs to do better than that
Re: If Andrade wins vs Nicholson, who could be his next opponent on PBC?
That completely slipped my mind. Probably not him then. Isn't Jesse Hart still kicking around? He's ranked top 5/6 by a governing body I'm pretty sure.margaret thatcher wrote: ↑07 Jan 2023, 15:44 uzcategui just got beat pretty handily by shishkin, needs to do better than that

Re: If Andrade wins vs Nicholson, who could be his next opponent on PBC?
At best it would be Plant-Bena loser. Dirrell, Shishkin and Uzcategui are up there too. Charlo and Bena-Plant winner are looking forward for bigger paydays. Andrade doesn't bring nothing to the table for them.
It would be a step up in competition for Andrade to fight these PBC guys after he fought on DAZN opponents like Keeler, Liam W. and Quigley.

It's been ages since Hart was a SMW. I dare say there is very little there to trouble Andrade. It would be another snoozer.margaret thatcher wrote: ↑07 Jan 2023, 18:56 ya hart would be a solid opponent if he can still make 168

I just checked, Hart last made the weight 2018. Probably a big ask.
He peaked losing to Zurdo the first time
I went and made a snack two rounds into Andrade's fight yesterday, so I'm no expert.
But I did make some really nice grilled cheese, onion and tomato sandwiches, which by all accounts was better than watching the whole fight

David Morrell would be a good choice for PBC to be next for Andrade

Isn't Morrell the mandatory challenger for Canelo's WBA title like Lara is for GGG? I mean Morrell most probably would want to fight for the big WBA 168 title?
Atm Morrell is 24 y/o, so in the good ol' fashion of nowadays modern boxing, most probably he'd like to stay away from the high risk-low reward fights and chase only the big money fights.
