    Andrade is gonna win a UD12. Mark my words here.

    And it's gonna end up turning into an extremely ugly fight and he's gonna get no credit for making it so ugly but he's gonna tie up Benavidez. Benavidez will not be able to hit him in combination, no way. I know no one likes Andrade but his ability to spoil is quite legendary TBH.

    Well Benavidez has to take this fight as Canelo is avoiding him like an ex- wife

    The more I think about this fight the more I think Andrade can play spoiler. This is a damn good fight and a chance for Andrade to show that he's the real deal. But, PPV? cmon mang.

    Andrade is very good & this will be his chance to showcase it, if he is able to ride or avoid too many big shot combinations of Benavidez than he has a real good chance of winning & being that he also has good enough punching power,

    Benavidez moved slow & sluggish last time in with Plant but that could have been due to him having food poisoning but even then he needs to get more active with his foot work & be smart by setting up traps in order to lure in Andrade, if he can't keep up & cut the ring off then Andrade will have more success as he's very skilled just boxing, this is a good match hope it is a done deal.

    Yea Jermall sorry. Jose's last fight was at middleweight. I'm not saying it's true but that's what David was saying

    I can't wait. Both these guys deserve a big fight, more so Andrade from a sports perspective.

    While I'm not picking Andrade to win, his ability to neutralize an opponent's offense, as you astutely observed, cannot be discounted.

    Benavidez will almost certainly miss more and find it more difficult to land cleanly on Andrade than any previous opponent. Let's not forget that Plant won 4 of the first 6 rounds against Benavidez. Andrade is better defensively than Plant, and I think he hits harder as well.

    The only caveat is this: will Andrade be busy enough to get a points win? Because Benavidez will be active, and judges have been known to be partial to even inefficient volume/aggression if a fighter is continually pressing the action and "making the fight."

    I hate Andrade. Waste of career. Hope he gets obliterated.

    It’s a “fire sale” over there at Shotime
    Going out of business but no actual sale in sight.

    it would suck if Andrade upsets the Nelo vs Benevidez super fight.
    Then I guess we could get the hilarious lead up to boo boo vs Nelo “Cinna-Sh!t “PeyDey”

    It’s about time we see Andrade fight someone worth a damn. I think he’ll give Benavidez a much harder fight than Plant. Not sure who’ll win, I just want to see a good fight and not a negative spoiler type of match up.

    Benavidez by KO.

    You guys are overselling Andrade. He barely got by Vanes Martirosyan. The same Martirosyan who got annihilated by GGG in 2 rounds.

    Benavidez is going to keep Andrade on the defensive at the start of the bell and use him for target practice.

    This is really sad to be honest. At 35 years old and after 15 years as a pro, David Benavidez will be Andrade’s first opponent that has ever held a title. He’s made his money with that DAZN deal but what a waste.

    Benavidez not getting a pass either I’m noticing that he’s been carefully matched to stay away from fighters with a punch since getting dropped by Gavril. Beating a bloated faded Lemieux doesn’t count. I can’t forget how he said verbatim that Morrell was in his contract and when Morrell called him out he played the “What has he done” card.

    So true on the things you mentioned regarding both guys,

    Andrade did get money but at what cost, seemed not to bothered about not getting the big fights though in his case he did call out guys & then most likely just said whatever,

    The Morrell fight not happening was a weird one & i believe it be a calculated move by Davids handlers just in case things go left making him unable to get the Canelo fight which has always been is one true goal.
