Some people here seem to believe he is a continental level fighter. (C level) Others think he's borderline world-class. (B-) I personally always thought he was a solid world class fighter, for sure, if not a little bit better! Please vote.:good A = elite B = world class C = continental level D = domestic level
Tough as nails, hits fairly hard, and can put good pressure on opponents. Lacks speed and technique. B- or B
B,he isn't elite,just the next lower level,around that,if he didn't have that chin he would probably be far worse
C To me he seems sluggish. In my personal belief you need to have better defence to be world class. Don´t get me wrong, I like his style but let´s be honest. Nothing we have seen from him yet justifies that he should be world class. I´m looking very much forward to the Bute fight, because I hope that he has improved since the Kessler fight, which clearly showed that he did not belong in that league. Very much depend on that fight, win or loose.
Wow, a C level fighter gave Kessler his second hardest fight ever...I guess that makes Kessler C+ or B-.... Kessler...borderline world class...hmm... atsch
People tend to make a big difference between elite and borderline elite BUT.....Andrade will never be elite,he ain't got the skills
Please. Sum up all of Andrades great Attributes! I´m a huge fan of Kessler and as I see it, Kessler is in a whole different sphere. (A better one in cause you are doubting)
Mundine was Kessler's toughest fight just behind the Calzaghe fight. Andrade didnt even win a round, but the fight was still hard because Andrade kept coming forward. Andrade is the third toughest fight of Kesslers career, to be precise.
And Andrade is a b level fighter imo. He hits hard, is as tough as they come, a rock solid chin and a Margo type pressure fighter - all attributes are world class. His technique level is limited as is his defense :!: but as the typical mexican type fighter he is as good as they get - almost. b level or b-.
