Bika turns down Andrade fight.
Contender champ Sakio Bika has said in Australia that he will not be taking the proposed fight v Librado Andrade. His reason is that since the Contender final he has not been training, and wouldnt be in shape by the time of the fight.
He said he would try to get a shot against WBA interim champ Anthony Mundine.
This is disappointing a Bika v Andrade fight would have been insane.

Re: Bika turns down Andrade fight.
I think Bika came to the conclusion that he wasn't going to win

Re: Bika turns down Andrade fight.
I heard the offer was very low also.

You know what VD, I'm there also.Alot is made of Mack's flooring Andrade but two different breeds of punches there .Whipping speed and unseen Vs.deliberate and telegraphed
Although It's a given fact Andrade will absorb some shot's I think His workrate could cause Miranda concerns.
This could be a war but unlikely to happen ,I'd pay top Dollar though!!

Miranda will outwork Andrade. Miranda has little skill but a high workrate and loads of power.
Andrade has practically zero skill, is slow with decent power and a great chin.
He's not aggressive or powerful enough to stop Miranda and he's not good enough to outbox him.
Miranda UD 12

Re: Bika turns down Andrade fight.
I think this is a smart move by bika. He should use his Contender fame to make some cash against less dangerous opponents than Andrade.

I think Andrade would out methodical Miranda,No way this go's 12 and I think Miranda would gas out late.For as simple as Andrade presents It,He gets pretty strong as he goes and I think hewould outlast and out endure Miranda over time.
Both get insulted If you dont hit them in the face and I dont think either one could outbox a heavybag strapped to a treadmill honestly but I really think Pantera would be much to reliant on pure power knowing Andrades face first style.

Doubt that one will happen.

I can see it happening actually Wack. It would make some decent cash here in australia cos Bika got some good publicity with the contender. Our casual fans really want Mundine to lose because of his arrogance and anytime another aussie fighter is promoted as having a chance against him (green, soliman) the PPV does really well.
In reality it'd be an easy win for Mundine.

Re: Bika turns down Andrade fight.
Really disappointed here at Bika here.
I mean if it was a money issue that would make much more sense to say then saying I wont be ready as far as preparation.
Either way I can also understand what hes trying to do which is get a title shot so I can't blame him.....
Hopefully Andrade can land another prominent name.

I think in the end fighting Andrade was just too much risk too little reward.

Cant really blame Bika tho, i mean his popularity is as high as it will ever be, should try cash in on it with a title shot if possible. No need throwing it all away in a career damaging fight v Andrade.

Yeah...right. Miranda would get him, he's tuff but not tuff enuff to go 12 rounds with Miranda.
And this sucks Bika pulled out. Bet that fucker has been partyin since his contender win. His fat wife has probably run up quite a tab at the local pizza places and fast food joints.

Re: Bika turns down Andrade fight.
Reguardless of his contender win and all IMO Bika does not have much left...1 maybe 2 good fights....even at 29 or 30 whatever he is....he had some tough fights early on and his team did not fix things that should have been addressed early in his career..it took a lot away from him...though Bika has given some good showings and has never been KO'd...his power is not enough to give him the "Punchers chance" in fights...especially against Andrade...
Bika and his team are no idiots they figure to hold out on a bigger name fight for more money even if it is just an an opponent

Re: Bika turns down Andrade fight.
I think Andrade would beat Bika with little drama involved.
Andrade-Miranda however is a toss up. Andrade has an iron chin, but he aint no superman. Taking bombs from Miranda for 12 rounds might cause some problems further down the road.. Though I can't seeing Andrade being knocked out, by anyone.
I think Miranda is going to be a more powerful beast at 168 then at 160 where he admitted he was greatly weakened trying to make weight. He and Andrade would make a war, but I wouldn't wish the abuse they would create on either one of them!

Re: Bika turns down Andrade fight.
Better to make excuses before the fight than after. If you arent 100% ready or focused for whatever reason, don't fight.

It may be the biggest understatement of the new century :laugh: That cow is probably getting fatter as Sakio's wallet is getting thinner. What a beast. Livestock at its finest.....moooooooooo ;D
Has she called Jenny ???
Toobad about this fight not happening. I like both guys; but Andrade is one of my faves. Wouldn't be a pretty fight; that's for sure :-\

Re: Bika turns down Andrade fight.
i think and Andrade is very muh overrated. People seem to think this guy can box, and he can't, they seem to think this guy has a cast iron chin, he doesn't... kessler landed some good shos on him, but kesslers punches look like unreal shots, but they are not... the muthfucka hits hard, but not as hard as it seems...
bikia would beat Andrade, he will amount to nothing. Unless Bika gets a trainer who can controll him, make him work the jab and throw thr overhand right he too will be a waste of talent

You can just hear the slurping sounds. Your markass ain't fooling nobody. You trying to say Bika beats Andrade to make Bika seem like he's a better fighter than he really is. That way you can pump up Calzaghe win over him. LOL. Your groupie lust knows no bounds.

Haha, CC for that ;D I got the same thing when I called Petey Manfraudo a bum and homeboy got all upset about it. For probably the same reason you just mentioned. I don't think anyone said Andrade is the reincarnation of Floyd as far as ability, but he sure does have an iron chin. I don't care if Kessler doesn't smack as hard as people think; he still hit Andrade with a boatload of bombs and ole dude kept coming like it was flies pestering him. I almost{not quite, though}hope Hopkins floors Calsaggy. Bye bye Birdy :lickish:

I hear you. I been figured Slob Lewis out long time ago. All he posts about is his lust for Calzaghe and Enzo. That's about it. He knows nothing about boxing. He's without a doubt the lamest poster on the forum. I find it funny that he claims to be a site writer but he's pound 4 pound the worst speller here. And that's with the spell check button available. LOL

Re: Bika turns down Andrade fight.
Dissappointed that we are not going to see this fight. I wonder if Lacy can make it happen! AND I've not seen ANYONE say Andrade can box or anything like that so no idea where you get that from Rob....We say what he is,a tough tough guy who can punch,is totally sloppy and has never heard of the word defence.He's never going to be a world beater BUT he can damage anyone he fights.Even Kess showed him some respect by not standing directly in front of him,using angles.

Re: Bika turns down Andrade fight.
Andrade is the one name that Miranda said he would like to fight next (other than the champs). The problem is, there is no money for this fight so I doubt they will be able to make a deal with him. Pantera is better of making top dollar and kicking the hyped Pascal in his home town.
If the fight did come off, I dont see why Miranda wouldnt be able to stop Andrade. He is soooo easy to hit and was put on his ass in his last fight.
Miranda KO 9
