Librado Andrade vs Arthur Abraham

Andrade has trouble with movers. Abraham is not a mover. They're both very tough. Andrade has an iron chin but Abraham would land flush and hurt Andrade. Would Abraham hurt Andrade sufficiently to stop him given that he himself would be hurt and tired out by Andrade's constant pressure on the inside? If anyone can stop Andrade, it's Abraham. But if anyone can take Abraham's hard punches, it's Andrade. It's certainly a fight I'd like to see. I cannot call a favourite.

 

Hmm.. you should write this in my poll on what style can beat AA?

Yea.. A Boxer with SUBERB chin and who cant get tired, just keep coming forward.. Maybe andrade..

 

Ya, this definitely has the making of a war. I would love to see this fight happen.

 

There's no chin Arthur Abraham can't crack. Other than his own...

 

Abraham UD.

He is a level above Andrade.

Arthur would get Andrades respect with his power and also Abraham is a very good boxer.

 

The classic irresistible force versus the immovable object.

Andrade is so rugged and tough and Abraham is not the stick and move type that gives Andrade fits. Anrdade would have a shot in the fight and I don't think Abraham could knock him out. Andrade toughest guy in the game right now.

 

He doesn't clinch and he wouldn't try it against Andrade either, in my view. Andrade would be kept honest by the threat that at any one time, Abraham could hurt him, with one punch. The fight to look to for clues here is Andrade v. Mack, I think. Mack hurt Andrade and Andrade admitted after the fight that had Mack continued to box instead of fighting in the mid-rounds, he'd have beaten Andrade. Andrade doesn't hit that hard and Abraham closes up shop pretty tightly. You can't get to his chin/head easily but Andrade's uppercuts would find their way in. On the other hand, Abraham can box well enough to deal with Andrade. It is possible that he would hurt Andrade early and then box for the rest of the fight to win a decision. I agree that Andrade could knock Abraham out, though. I can't pick a favourite.

 

Very well said.

Whilst Abraham may not be able to stop Andrade he will or would gain his respect.

I think the fight would be similar to Tszyu vs Tackie. One guy hits like hell, the other guy is indestructible but the guy who can hit cn subdue the chin due to him hitting hard enough to actually get his attention.

 

Abraham by UD! i can see him score a couple knockdowns too..

 

Abraham would beat the **** outta Andrade. Librado is too easy a target, and AA hits too hard.

 

On the other hand, Abraham would find it hard to deal with someone who gets in your face and keeps punching from all angles continuously - he's never met anyone like that before. It would sap him of his strength and power somewhat and he wouldn't be able to set up his punches as easily as he usually does. This is not the same Andrade that fought Kessler either and Abraham, whilst he has a good jab and a hell of a one-two, wouldn't be as effective in keeping Andrade away with his one-two as Kessler was, in my view.

I wouldn't want to call the odds on this one, but I would love to see it.

 

Andrade has only average Chin :[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N00IuUbJGkM[/ame]

Andrade is plodding, slow and clumsy punching bag with no defence,

Andrade would not land a glove on AA,
He would get murdered ithere with AA, a Mismatch.

How the **** that plodding zombie would tire out guy who he could not land a glove?

Andrade is horrible and can only win gusy with suspect chins and staminas like Lucian Bute.

 

It would be a much tougher fight for Arthur than you think.
