The best man at 154 is Demetrius Andrade, and that's why the other top dogs want no part of him. He is the best boxer and is also clearly the smartest in the division by far. This content is protected
Does he talk about how he dropped out of a fight versus Jermell Charlo in 2014? Said the money wasn't right, but it was reported at 250-300K, his highest purse to date.
I think the story he told about it went something like this. He was being courted at the time by Roc Nation and they wanted to sign him and he told them he would but he had a fight signed. He said they told him to back out of it and theyd pay him for it so he didnt miss out on the money. Then apparenty they backed out of their deal with him and he was left holding his dick. He said the network was very pissed and didnt want to deal with him. I wonder why a fighter like him is still dealing with such a small time operation like Banner.
He needs to be active. As of right now, hes putting himself in the Rigo position of being an extremely talented fighter, but bringing nothing to the table. Hes got no title, he doesn't bring in big money, AND hes very good. The perfect recipr for never getting a good fight. Only way he gets these fights is if he gets active, gets some good performances and builds some hype
