Andrade boasts an outstanding amateur pedigree having been on the 2008 Olympic team. Unlike Canelo, Andrade is not a boxing star. He mentioned that Andrade hasn’t fought anybody noteworthy, and instead, Canelo has aspirations to face bigger stars and clean out the super middleweight division by facing Caleb Plant in a unification bout for all four belts. Despite the insults, Canelo has other plans than facing Andrade. Canelo told Andrade, “get the f- out of here” and “you’re a horrible fighter.”Īfter the verbal sparring at the press conference, Andrade has since labeled Canelo a coward. Security immediately smothered Andrade, telling him he needed to leave. He called out Canelo Alvarez (56-1-2, 38KOs) on May 8 following his KO win over Billy Joe Saunders, and Canelo did not budge. Once again, Andrade decided to crash a press conference to generate buzz. Supposedly, Eddie Hearn offered Jermall a $7 million offer, but negotiations did not continue further.
Well before Andrade signed with DAZN, he called out the Charlo twins and even crashed the press conference for Jermall Charlo following his KO victory over Julian Williams, but nonetheless, he never received an opportunity to face either Jermell or Jermall Charlo.
So far, nothing has panned out, and his prospects for getting a notable match remain bleak. Andrade’s hope with signing to DAZN was that the platform had all the big names around his weight division and eventually he could land a major fight. For about the last decade, Demetrius “Boo Boo” Andrade (30-0, 18KOs) has continuously pushed for major fights without any luck.
