    Even the events at the Royale in downtown Boston have ceased. Those were largely around Murphy's Boxing prospects Niall Kennedy and Greg Vendetti. Both have reached their respective ceilings.

    The pandemic doesn't help, obviously, but it's difficult seeing Southern NE making a boxing comeback - outside of those CT casinos, of course.

    Yeah, actually I meant to include that caveat in my post - that, in fairness, we have a full year of lockdown in the mix there, but still. Bupkiss in all of 2019 outside that one ill-fated Murphy's event.

    Yeah, it's a repost, but my opinion hasn't shifted in the least in the last two months.

    Yes, absolutely Williams will win and it will be by destruction. Williams 2.0 is all wrong for Boo Boo. He's cutting off the ring far better, his pressure is frantic and suffocating, his jab is heavy, thudding, persistent and pulverizing. He's a hell of a lot better on the inside, and works his opponents over effectively in the clinch, and his straight rights are a lot less predictable, due to the angles he's throwing them from and the fact that he's now doubling and tripling up on the jab. His vastly improved upper body and head movement along with his high guard defense is on point, and his speed is equal to Andrade's, and his ability to find openings is seamless and fluid. People will be shocked at how easily Williams dispatches him, and will have nothing to do with catching the profoundly overrated Andrade at the right time. He's always been there for the taking for a guy with the proper tools for the job, and Liam has two toolboxes full.

    I hope you're right haha as I'd love to see Williams v Munguia at some stage.

    My head is going with Andrade to do his usual but am hoping Williams gets up and cuts off Andrade's excessive movement.

    I think, Williams will be better, but Andrade escapes with a DRAW.

    See this is why Liam needs to go in with a "KO is the only way" mindset.

    Hoping for a Williams win. However Andrade is slick and tricky. Williams Will have to wear him down. But can he land enough to do so?

    I'm sure I can guess but what does the state commission do when there's no boxing? Sanction bar fights? Campaign for whoever appointed them?

    They also handle MMA. UFC and Bellator come around every now and then.

    I just want Williams to put it on Andrade to see how he reacts.

    Hopefully we don't go to a fight and end up at a boxing match.

    Let's see if Booboo can fight. We know he can box.

    I think Booboo is super talented but also very boring in and out of the ring.

    Andrade wins going away with a few precarious moments when his mind wanders (like it does in every fight). None of the guys he's fought, (and yes I've watched the recent ones) tells me he beats an Andrade. I clearly don't see what you guys that are picking Williams are seeing.

    Feel free to point out to me what I'm not seeing in Williams.
