I saw that. Mad stuff. 5 weight world champ

Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy · November 18, 2021, 12:52pm

Can join The Hitman, Sugar Ray, The Golden Boy, Pretty Boy Floyd and Pacman as a 5 weight world champion.

Fine company there.

Of course, and I know you’re well aware of this, there are lots of boxers from the early days who would have been 5 weight champions only there weren’t as many weights and as many belts back then. Henry Armstrong would have been an undisputed champion for 5 different weight classes. Sugar Ray Robinson would have been undisputed champion for at least 4 weight classes and probably would have picked up some kind of belt at light heavy weight if there had been more than one. Also, the fact that the divisions are closer together makes it easier to progress upwards because fighters can take baby steps with their weight instead of huge jumps.

It’s almost like he is able to pack on an unnatural amount of muscle

glasagusban · November 18, 2021, 1:39pm

Yeah. He’s such a class and stylish fighter that it’s a real pity you can’t believe he’s clean.

Batigol · November 18, 2021, 1:41pm

It is. He’s been incredible, but the amount of dodgy decisions and questionable drug results he’s gotten just make it impossible for me to shout for him.

Which crowd are showing Andrade-Quigley this weekend?

ironmoth · November 18, 2021, 1:49pm

DAZN, I’d imagine.

flattythehurdler · November 18, 2021, 3:49pm

I doubt many of the top fighters are clean.

FlakeAway · November 20, 2021, 4:08am

Bloody hell. Quigley was horrendous.

Batigol · November 20, 2021, 7:08am

Couldn’t make head nor tail of Andrade

It was like every punch Andrade threw it hurt Quigley. Way too strong & fast for him.

Has to be one of the most one sided fights I’ve seen. Kinda reminded me of Rocky Fielding against Canelo but last night was worse.

glasagusban · November 20, 2021, 10:19am

I’m glad I didn’t get up for it now, that’s very disappointing.

Alan-partridge · November 20, 2021, 10:21am

He looked completely out of his depth, possibly overwhelmed by the occasion. As for one sided fights….don’t forget Willie Casey v Guillermo rigondeaux

Batigol · November 20, 2021, 10:48am

I thought he boxed ok but just couldn’t seem to get Andrade’s timing at all. And yeah, every punch seemed to land flush

neilld · November 21, 2021, 10:41am

Crawford stops Porter, first to ever do it, latter gave it absolutely everything. What a fight.

Raylan · November 21, 2021, 10:35pm

Quigley had his jaw broken, maybe explains the non-performance

Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy · November 22, 2021, 7:15am

Will Crawford and ESJ ever happen?

ironmoth · November 22, 2021, 7:37am

Quigley is well-able to take a punch, so that says a lot. There’s a reason the big boys avoid Andrade. Serious operator.
