    He is a couple higher yeah but regardless that is still pretty impressive.

    But it's early days and like so many people say, it's only sparring.

    he prob weighed 165 to gatos 155...what a clinic though...i am telling anyone who will listen andrade is the real deal....it was a riot...gato started talking **** then andrade called his 3 year old daughter to take the tenth rd for him...he reminded me alot of dirrell...slick and strong...no flaws
