    surprised I've only heard about this now, didn't see any articles/press releases about it.

    Never seen his oppponent, but andrew is very talented so expect him to win.

    Definitely a world class talent but at 30 he needs to get a move on. I just hope he doesn't get stitched up on the cards in Mexico!

    KOd in round five. Can't help but feel his career has been seriously mismanaged.

    It's such a shame, he's one of the most talented fighters I have seen. Hope he can comeback from this, he was boxing great until the liver shot.

    Yeah he was streets ahead of Charlie Edwards and Kal Yafai in the amateurs but they both have become world champions and he's just been under the radar and mismanaged like you said. He really should have gone with Eddie Hearn, or at least Frank Warren.

    What happened with him and Cyclone? I thought he was doing fine with them on C5 then all of a sudden they split? I know he had problems in his personal life but I wish he had proper backing. He needed guidance through his tough times, really should have kicked on after the Rosales win.

    Unlucky really. He was boxing brilliantly but sometimes body shots like that happen.

    It's not like a devastating beating or KO, he can come back no problem.

    I think he looked a special fighter. Going to Mexico everything is different. Selby and his team have made a massive mistake here. Selby had an aura about him. I think mentally he wasn't there. Always seemed a strange interview after. He might not box again. He never enjoyed it when winning so a defeat won't make him feel any better about boxing.
