    Ok I like Mack. He has got some power and speed. Barrios ripped him, but he did look good on his last comeback fight on ESPN. What do you guys think of Mack, a threat to Calzaghe? Can he beat Andrade? (I think he can) Should he rematch Barrios after he fights Bute no matter if Barrios wins or loses? (I think he needs to rematch Barrios no matter what) thoughts please...

    Andrade is going to walk Mack down and KO him.

    Mack doesn't have great anything really, and I'm guessing he has stamina problems since he usually does just enough to get by in winning rounds. We already know he doesn't have a great chin. I haven't seen enough of Andrade outside of the Kessler fight to give a prediction on this specific fight, but I will say that I don't think Mack is anything special.

    i wouldn't be surprised if Mack beats Andrade, neither can beat Calzaghe, Kessler, or even Berrio...and Berrio going to STARCH Lucian Bute, so remember where you heard it first...

    I've only seen Mack fight Berrio so I don't know him much but why do you guys say Mack doesnt have a chin? Because he got knocked out by the biggest puncher in the division? :huh

    Al would probably KO Mack and in all likelyhood outbox Andrade.

    No way he stops Andrade though, Green would be on the bike as soon as he landed flush and nothing happened.

    Andrade is a mutant. Nobody can take a beating like he did and still be human. I predict him knocking out Mack in the 5th.

    Andrade has been hyped up by a few people but he will most likely get outboxed by Yusaf Mack.

    The odds that bookmakers set for this fight were insane when they first put them up. Andrade to win was almost at even and under 9.5 rounds is still in the + range. Mack has stamina problems and isn't hard to hit. He will have HUGE problems with someone like Andrade, who is a machine-like fighter who has no exceptional technical skills, but has good power, a titanium chin, and he simply doesn't stop punching. I will be shocked if Mack doesn't get stopped before 10. Mack's "boxing skills" won't matter in this matchup. This isn't the typical case of a pretty good boxer vs a rough puncher. Andrade isn't great but he has some qualities that make him very dangerous to any b level fighters or below.

    Against chin, stamina and determination, technique alone won't make any kind of imprint.

    last time i saw mack, he got ktfo after a kiss of death from berrio on FNF. he was gun shy after the second round, gave up his reach advantage and fought the rest of the fight in the inside against a harder puncher. judging by that performance, andrade will be pressurng him the entire night and knock him out. though i would'nt count mack out, being the better schooled guy he could probably take a SD.
