    How does Andrade match up against the likes of Chong Pal Park, Lindell Holmes, In Chuel Baek, Obelmejias, or even a Vinnie Curto? With his style I'm sure he would burn out fast like we saw him do in his own time, but what does he accomplish before he's done, if anything?

    A reminder that guys like Park and Curto were only 5 foot 7... Andrade was a full six foot two with a 78 inch reach and re-hydrated to just a few rounds shy of 180.

    No fans of the concrete headed Andrade?

    Who does he beat to get the belt and who wrests it from him?

    Massive size advantage for the Super Middleweights of the 2000's over the 80's guys. In the 80's 168 was seen somewhat of a wasteland just like the Cruiserweight division was back then as well. Now those divisions are pretty loaded with talent and have been for the last 20 years.
