From a skill point of view, is Andrade on the same level as Crawford, Spence, Ennis, and Canelo

    Absolutely. They don't want that smoke for no reason. Clen been ducking Boo Boo hard since Nam. He shamelessly ducked him at 154 and then ducked unifying against him up at 160. Clen said unifying is probably his greatest achievement but the opportunity to do so against Andrade was there on a silver platter for him but he avoided it like the plague.


    Apparently, Andrade is a ''horrible fighter'' who ''hasn't fought anyone'' but the far less talented Plant whose best win by far is Uzecat isn't :facepalm:


    Clen couldn't wait to get bum Plant in a ring but his ducking of Boo Boo has spanned two divisions and goes back to 2013-2014

    His avoided for a reason. Charlo doesnt want it. Mungia doesn't want it.

    Strikes me like the kind of guy that “if” he gets put in a big fight will fight at a career best level, and the kind of guy who fights someone below his level drops down to the level of his opponent. Reminds me a bit of Calzaghe in that regard.

    No wonder he wanted to finish the fight quickly

    He is quite skillful and can be a sharp puncher.

    He looks to me to be a level below these guys, but let's see him step up in competition and then we'll know. Like Charlo and GGG he seems to feel entitled to a shot at Canelo, but how about trying to unify first? All three of those guys seem to want nothing of each other.

    Everyone’s avoiding each other, I’m pretty sure Andrade wants no part of them either

    Golovkin Andrade should be easily made, unless Golovkin doesn't want to. Boo Boo seems the old man is beatable now.
    I don't know if Golovkin will fight beyond 2022.

    Charlo has plainly stated that he won't fight Andrade, who ducked out before.

    im with you on most of it except,
    the “tremendous finisher” part.

    last night vs quigley is the 1st time in a looooong time that he has finished a fight tremendously.
    ( which is what an A Level should do to a C level guy …. Blast him out in under 3-4 rounds)

    if he had just Put the emphasis on finishing guys once he gets them into trouble earlier in his career.

    He would have been had the Big fights as the public outcry & demand would exist.
