    I personally dont care about this fight. I wish Canelo had fought him instead of avoiding trying to become undisputed at 160 but I would have rather seen Canelo fight Charlo or a GGG trillogy

    Demetrius Andrade - 31 - 0
    Billy Joe Saunders - 30 - 0 (before facing Canelo)

    Demetrius Andrade - slick southpaw
    Billy Joe Saunders - slick southpaw

    Demetrius Andrade - fought nobody
    Billy Joe Saunders - arguably has a couple decent wins

    Demetrius Andrade - not known for his power
    Billy Joe Saunders - not known for his power

    These guys are pretty similar, so what happened to Saunders you ask ? LOL

    This is a foregone conclusion, Canelo would stop him

    You should start a different thread for that.

    He brought just as much as Caleb Plant.

    Its really quite simple. Too much risk with little reward. Andrade could've helped his case by forcing attention on himself by getting a name on his resume but he didn't. Boxing is buisness 1st and Canelo could make the same money fighting a Yildirim as he would fighting Andrade.

    True. Canelo had signed a $30mil(ish) per fight deal at DAZN. Andrade has no real fanbase and that matters business wise.

    Really? I think Plant had built a far higher profile.

    Plant's profile did not matter, his belt did.
