    BORING.

    My lord, the announcers must have been told to hype the guy. Sulecki looked awful and, OK, you can say that was due to Andrade's skills but, geez, was that a boring fight. Who wants to watch a guy like Andrade? I sure don't.

    I hope GGG and Canelo continue to "duck" him. He doesn't deserve a shot.

    Your a t
    your a turd if you think that was a boring fight.
    There is a reason why haymon never matched him up with the charlos! GGG or canelo need to step up.

    Anyone who finds Andrade interesting either doesn't understand that boxing is a sport intended to entertain or they're from Providence.

    So it is a consensus. Makes me not want to youtube it, unless anyone can say it was better than PBF vs Baldomir, that was the most boring fight I've ever seen in decades of watching the sport.
    -edit- RJJ vs Bhop II was the worst, 2nd PBF vs Baldomir. We should've been paid to view both waltz fest.

    The reason promoters don't match their fighter against Andrade is because he is a cutie. He is not in there to entertain, he is in there to try and steal a victory. He doesn't want to fight. He is the kind of fighter who tries to do the minimum by flicking a jab and running away. He wants to outquick his opponents and not get into exchanges. That works for almost no one, including fighters like Canelo and GGG, who want to mix it up. Andrade can continue to wait and wait and wait to get a shot at one of the top guys. There is no incentive for them to fight him. No Big Drama Show with Andrade in the ring.

    Either way, who cares? Who wants to watch a guy run around the ring for 12 rounds and flick a jab? I sure the hell don't.

    Dude, please stop. Even you don't believe that. Fine I get it, you don't like Golovkin, but that doesn't mean you have to go all out and make an ass out of yourself anytime someone is mentioned as an opponent for him. Canelo and Golovkin are kind of seven or eight levels above Sulecki, this match proved nothing, and changed nothing about the more than obvious outcomes of those matches.

    You may not like him for whatever reason but he is very skilled. Any sport is intended to be a competition, not entertainment. If it's entertaining or not is in the eye of the beholder. I personally think soccer/football is probably the single most boring sport ever. It's a physical competition, though, not a Michael Bay film. The physical competition doesn't interest me either, so I don't watch. The physical competition of a boxing match interests me, therefore I watch.

    Nobody makes you watch; just don't next time. Giving him ratings will increase the odds of him facing a top notch fighter which apparently you don't want to see.

    Not even to be an ass, but honestly with everything you have said you probably should not watch any live fights. Just watch highlights of the "entertaining" ones you hear about.
