    Demetrius Andrade was not all that impressive in his opener.

    To be fair to him though, he was fighting a very awkward customer, whose game plan seemed to be jump on top of Andrade and spoil his work. Nobody was going to look good under those circumstances and the important thing was that he won.

    We'll see how Andrade looks when he's up against some of the better boxer, who will leave him a bit more space when they are trying to get their own work done.
