Got to give machado props, he got a chin on him, eating them shots, reminds me of a prime Provodnikov with how he is hungry to eat power shots.

How can you say Machado isn't a puncher though, he hasn't landed. We won't know if he is a puncher or not until he lands

When they try and jump on the bandwagon later down the line:wow:

I feel you breh. I can't hate on the man. Just giving harsh constructive criticism.

Canelo doesn't fight well against boxers, we saw this vs Trout, Lara, and Floyd.
GGG doesn't fight well against boxers with pop, who can get his respect, we saw that against Canelo (even though I thought he won) and we saw that against Jacobs (a fight I thought he lost)

Off pure ability Andrade has the tools to beat both, especially with his height and length and his counter punching ability and pop.

On top of that you have the Charlo fights, Lemeiux, and Jacobs, fights I think he can win due to his superior boxing abilty

I don't see how Canelo beats Andrade with his lazy fighting style and the height and reach advantage Andrade has, he would have to fight the complete opposite of how he has fought his whole career.

On the other end GGG has a better chance that Canelo, but the same issue he had with Jacobs, the reach advantage and the movement that Andrade can provide it gives him problems, especially with his age and his slowing down.

Just my .02


I agree with you, but Andrade doesn't put his punches together well and he's very inaccurate with his punching. He had a punching bag in there and he couldn't hurt him.

When he fights a hunter that can take a punch and sting back, he will be in deep trouble. Hell, we saw how Culcay had him faded.

He needs to tune up his combo and accuracy. His defense also needs tuning. His chin stays too exposed. He relies too much on reflex. Reflex should be second and basics, first. Hey what do I know though ? :manny:

I agree he needs to tweak and tighten up his defense.
I don't put much into the Culcay fight because of the layoff before it, but I agree.
