    He used to have an olympic/ more technical style. Now he looks like he is trying to be more aggressive and his footwork is sloppy and awful, he misses wildly far too often and he looks like a clown. He is winging punches like he is a Youtube star or something. On top of that, he has a terrible resume and acts like he is beating HOF'ers and his interviews are cringe-worthy to boot.

    BJS will outclass him. Charlo beats him too if Andrade continues to fight this hacker style and doesn't go back to disciplined boxing.

    Your use of the word "sloppy" is pretty accurate in describing his last performance.

    He really has.
    &’it’s his level of comp.
    It only natural for him to regress if he keeps competing against less talented fighters that are levels below him.

    I used to be intrested in a Canelo-Andrade fight at 154 thought his height and style would lead to a good bout but seeing how both guys careers have played out at this point Andeade is just an embarrassment all bark no bite dont know how you support fighters like this

    He really has regressed, I'm thinking back to the Matriosyan performance. Someone technical like Danny Jacobs would piece him up with counters if he comes forward with that winging punch offense.

    Came here to write this comment. Used to tell people that he’d beat Canelo and give Floyd all he could handle at 154.

    How can you be in 29 fights into a career. In a division where there is Canelo, GGG and Charlo. A big name yourself on a big contract. Yet you havent faced a single one of them or one single big name.

    Like WTF is going on with this dudes career? In his 29th fight he faces Luke Keeler, a fighter no one has ever heard of. Other than when he was beaten twice by British level Tom Duran twice.

    I debated adding him but the fact that he kind of Badou Jacked both fights is why I left him off.. Part of being on the A, B+ level is being able to close out and win close fights.. I think we’ll have an idea where Charlo/Andrade is at of either face him soon which the WBC is gonna call for that mandatory soon

    Think about this even at 154 he didn’t face good comp.. No Lara, Trout, K9 Bundrage, Charlo etc.. He really mishandled his career big time. After the Walter K fight the IBF called for Andrade vs Derevyanchenko but he turned it down..

    Sometimes promoters cause fights to not happen. I can't say he's regressed. Dude went out and decided to bang- we call him sloppy. If he takes his time & picks his shots. He'll be called boring. Many of those he hasn't faced, were derided in other threads as not too good. Damn if he does, damn if he doesn't.
