ANDRADE VS. CULCAY WILL TAKE PLACE NOV. 5 IN GERMANY

Former U.S. Olympian Demetrius Andrade and Jack Culcay have agreed to terms to fight on Nov. 5 in Potsdam, Germany for Culcay’s secondary junior middleweight title, though it won’t be on Showtime because the network doesn’t want to go up against Manny Pacquiao’s return on the same day, Andrade co-promoter Artie Pelullo told RingTV.com on Thursday.
The contracts are being finalized and Pelullo expects them to be signed in the next couple of days. “The fight is 100% a go,” Pelullo said in a phone interview. “The fight is 100% a go. The deal is done.”
Culcay’s promoter, Sauerland Event won a purse bid in August at the WBA’s Panama offices with an offer of $425,144 compared to Banner Promotions bid of $201,000. The minimum offer was $150,000 with 75 percent going to the titleholder and 25 percent to the opponent.
Showtime, which has strong interest in Andrade’s future on the network, will not broadcast the fight because it’s on the same day as Pacquiao’s return against Jessie Vargas, Pelullo said. “Showtime doesn’t want to do a fight on that day because it’s Pacquiao,” said Pelullo, who added the goal for the fight is to be shown on another U.S. network, which hasn’t been identified yet. “I know Sauerland wants to put it on some kind of American medium,” said Pelullo, president of Banner Promotions, who promotes Andrade with Joe DeGuardia’s Star Boxing. “I know it’s going to happen.”
Andrade (23-0, 16 knockouts) already handily beat Culcay (22-1, 11 KOs) in the amateurs in the quarterfinals of the 2007 World Championships. Pelullo hopes a second win against Culcay is a springboard for bigger fights to come for the talented Andrade. Pelullo hopes to see the 28-year-old southpaw back on Showtime in the first quarter of 2017.
“After the fight he comes back to the United States and it gives him a bigger position at 154 and 160,” Pelullo said. “He’s now a two-time junior middleweight world champion and he’ll bring something to the table when there’s a Canelo or Golovkin fight. And there will be fights like that. Or one of the Charlo brothers. It will be a meaningful fight for him because now he’s a champion again.”

Made sure to leave a current Cuban name out his mouth though
He beats Culcay, he has a mandatory & guranteed fight vs Lara. It's the least money available of his targets however, so attempting to face Canelo/Cotto/Charlos first makes sense.

LOL its ducking.. lets just call it what it s
Read the last week of this thread, and you have your answer. Ain't nobody got time to be rehashing the same convos over & over
Anyways:
at trying to get a split like that when you aren't that close to GGG's draw.Take your 25%, take your L, & bounce back Jacobs...quit stalling the fight.

I thought we already established Lara was the Cash Cow at 154 not named (Canelo)
Charlos fight on Laras undercard
Lara makes 700k his Opp Vanes 400k
Charlo makes 500k Trout 300k
Lara does the views on Showtime
He's got the biggest purses, best ratings AND the real Belt

Kermit Cintron?
What the fukk?
They scrambling for an Opp N at the same time dont wanna pay for one
Same shyt as Ward/Brand
Swift vs One Time HAS to happen next or these idiots goin look bad like worst then Salka bad
Swift vs Hank Lundy or Karim Mayfield should happen then...at least that would be a grudge match, a cheaper opponent with a name within the Boxing community, & has a back story to sell viewers on
