    What did the USA commentators make of all the holding and referee, out of interest?

    close rounds. Could go either way whether you like volume or clean power shots. Andrade nicks it for me

    Andrade puts everything into his power shots. He has some power, but he's not that heavy handed. Williams is tough, but basic as hell. That was boring. Williams had nothing but grit.

    118-109 to 116-111 if being super generous to Williams

    Andrade was still in a figh and Williams did himswlf proud, it was a really impressive performance from him

    You can't fault Williams heart, determination and effort, tough man, took some big shots.

    Andrade is just awkward and unorthodox and will cause certain fighters problems, but he is so frustrating to watch.

    Andrade won well enough for me, Williams made it competitive but just didn't do enough.

    Yep.. Should have been DQ.. Think Andrade a bit chinny having need to clinch every 5 seconds

    Andrade barely knicks it for me, but he should have had point deductions galore same as he always does. If I'm Charlo I'm calling Al Haymon and demanding the Andrade fight.

    Imagine GGG vs Andrade... if Williams was able to pressure him like that, imagine what GGG would do

    Williams negated the body also in rounds 5-8 I noticed.

    Good scrap, think he was too fired up at the beginning, once he stopped single jabs he had more success but he smothered a lot of his work.

    7-5 for Andrade.

    Horrible to watch, gets beaten off GGG, Canelo, it wouldn’t even be close.

    Great effort by Williams and he’s got time to come again, Andrade is as bad as Ward to watch.
