    LOL Andrade can't even draw 1,000 to this fight...and Hearn wonders why other boxers avoid him: they won't make any money
    fighting him.

    Meh, he could have done the warrior thing and go out on his shield, but as a spectator, Im glad the fight ended when it did.

    Pearson wasn't in it from the first second.

    I think Williams has what it takes to take out anyone at 160 if he catches them right and if he can land with any regularity against Andrade I think he can take him out too. He really is a vicious puncher and he possesses the skills, accuracy and speed to catch you with sneaky shots to do the damage. However, Andrade has such a horrible awkward nightmare style to fight against that Williams just might not be able to close the gap and whilst Andrade isn't a KO artist he can punch and catch you with a quick sneaky shot too and Williams said in an interview the other day that he doesn't rate his power which concerned me a little.

    Stuck watching this on my phone, had big plans to hype up my fellow New Englander so you can consider yourselves lucky I can't.

    A man of taste and decency.

    Eye injuries that puff suddenly like that are a bad sign. He didn't show a lot of heart (for a belt contender, I would have handed Gongorra my lunch money straight away) throughout the fight but once the eye suddenly changes like that I support staying down.

    Otherwise how is he going to read the tweets badmouthing his performance?

    Does he think that promoting fighters in the US is the same as promoting fighters in the UK lol. All you have to do in the UK is chuck a football shirt of your favourite team on and they'll love you.

    Not hearing Eddie is actually quite entertaining. DAZN, can you give the same mic to Adam Smith please?

    The PPV Loot Code makes one hobble to the ring and take whatever happens in there on the chin

    Andrade is a Top 3 of the most boring champions right now.

    "Charlo is out there fighting Montiel, which is one of the most disgraceful defenses I've seen" -- Eddie Hearn

    I laughed out loud with that.
