Andrade did what he had to do…started off strong, immediately establishing that he was the better athlete and boxer and even dropped Sulecki about a minute into fight. Andrade controlled the action when he wanted, showed good defense and counter punching. Slowed down around the 6th or 7th and coasted the rest of the fight, All 3 judges scored it 120-107, but I had it 117-110…Gave Sulecki the 6th, 7th and the 9th…and possibly the 11th,,,otherwise, it was a complete wash. Boring fight,,gave it 2 stars.
That KD was a phantom punch that did not land. Anyhow…Andrade has talent. But a very unpolished style. Some might say unortho. But I say more on the sloppy/reckless side. I was very much surprised at how loosey goosey he was in this match. I’ve seen better pedigree from him. Also, the fact that he did not display another gear to completely outclass & take this guy’s soul is troubling. Hearing him & Charlo constantly call out the two top gun’s names annoys me….feels like a money grab. Neither dude has fought anyone of note & just want the big payday. They haven’t even fought each other. Look at Canelo’s resy in comparison. Why bother w/ either of them…Hell, even look at Jacob’s resy in comparison…both pale. No way this fight should’ve gone twelve. or been so no-descript. …wack juice.
