    Was really hoping the stars would align and Liam would pull the upset. Missed the fight but thanks for the updates. Andrade very skilled but has been withering on the vine over the last few years complaining about the big fights he's not getting. His mandatory is a decently improved Munguia, worth a watch and the pop to catch him off.

    Golovkin is apparently planning on fighting Murata in Japan's new year eve stuff according to Edward Hearn.... Can't see either of them taking on andrade in the meantime I'm sure that event will pay a lot, and golovkin is old now so I say on you go you old git take your money....

    Hopefully andrade gets Charlo that would be a nice fight for both of them.

    Hopefully it comes off. Promotions may say something else. That's the thing that frustrates ya, Charlo is set to defend in June v the guy who Kirkland looked at as an easy mark to come back against but got sparked. Obviously Charlo/Andrade are running same schedule and know it'll be big. Both not getting any younger. You just wish we'd cut out these middle man almost keep busy fights and get on with an actual fan friendly competitive match. Still think Andrade regrets pulling out of his defense v the other Charlo years ago because he wanted more money too.

    Eddie sounded pretty determined to land the Charlo fight, he said they'd fight in fox whatever that means, maybe Charlo is contracted to them... If eddiiie is being honest and the Charlo andrade fight doesn't happen I think we can't blame andrade...

    I'm expecting a silly tittle defence fromm both next...

    Demetrius Andrade floors and outpoints Liam Williams to defend WBO middleweight title

    Liam Williams unable to become Britain's latest world champion despite gutsy challenge of Demetrius Andrade; he climbed off the canvas and later rocked the American but it wasn't enough

    Liam Williams was denied a world title after being dropped and frustrated by Demetrius Andrade on Saturday night in Florida.

    Andrade remained undefeated and won by unanimous decision to cling onto his WBO middleweight championship despite a spirited effort from Williams.

    The Brit was regarded as the champion's sternest test but got off to a catastrophic start.


    Andrade hurt him in the opening round then, in the second, knocked him down with a right-left combination.

    Williams gamely battled back and forced Andrade into a brawl at times, which the American regularly spoiled by holding.


    The ninth round was Williams' best - a right hand rocked Andrade but he couldn't follow up with another blow and the moment slipped away.

    The fight was scored 118-109, 118-109 and 116-111 in Andrade's favour.

    Joe Calzaghe, who Williams was aiming to emulate as a world champion from Wales, said: "Brave effort by Williams tonight. Hurt early but came back and showed he belongs at world level hurting Andrade in the ninth.

    "Bad ref, frustrating and allowed way too much holding!"

    Williams, after two losses to Liam Smith in 2017, had reinvented himself and was on a superb seven-fight win streak which earned him this mandatory opportunity.

    Instead, the night belonged to the southpaw Andrade who delivered a reminder that he is a tricky customer in his fourth world title defence.

    Unbeaten in 30, he will be looking towards the middleweight division's other champions - Gennadiy Golovkin, Ryota Murata and Jermall Charlo.

    Considering the bad start he did well to get back into the fight and won the middle rounds. He did take a lot of uppercuts and could not really get his own combinations going. He did himself proud and put up a very good effort.
