  • Parker should fight some1 else and move on, Andrade never wanted the fight to start with and will prob go looking for fights back down at Middle now with GGG gone.

  • Andrade has had some trouble making 60! He’s getting older and the only way to cash in would be @68! Fights against Plant and Benavidez are higher purses

  • Mr irreverent, always whining about not getting fights, and then this. Probably couldn’t be helped but ain’t got time for inactivity

    • He’s relevant enough for Canelo to dodge him. Even if he wasn’t injured Canelo still doesn’t want that smoke. He doesn’t fight undefeated black men anymore. The last time he did he remembers what happened. He set Valdez up to do what he doesn’t do lol.

  • Andrade is one of the most talented and skilled boxers in the game. Its nearly impossible for him to get a top name in the ring and would get no credit for beating Zach Parker. Andrade is the only boxer Canelo accused of being a horrible fighter and just wanting a payday. Translation: Andrade is a great fighter.

  • For Andrade, the door is nearly shut (if not closed) for the boxing community/fans. I always wonder how Andrade would perform against the top guns at 160. Maybe Andrade can open some doors at 168.

    In this line of work, I hope Andrade understands that ‘Father Time’ is fully capable of quickly catching him.
