Anyone else disappointed that Demetrius Andrade wasn't on HBO prospects?

    His last fight surely was better than the first two we saw last night. Sure, he doesn't have 10 or 20 pro fights yet, like the others, but at least they could've shown highlights or something. I guess it's all politics.

    I think it's way too friggin early to put him through the HBO spin.

    Even as a prospect, he's a baby prospect with only a few fights under his belt so it's too early to even consider him as the future... He's decent but not extraordinary.. There are far better prospects out there.

    A big fat NO... Look at all these people thinking that Andrade and Deontay wilder are some hot ****.. lol Ive been watching boxing long enough to recognize a special fighter when i see one and Andrade/Wilder aren't special... They arent the future... They just ok..

    Are you joking? I can't tell if there's sarcasm laced within the post.

    But if you weren't joking, Andrade only has 3 professional fights and those 3 conquered opponents were tomato cans. He has no business being recognized by HBO.
