When all is said and done, Andrade will have a better pro career than Amir Khan. It will help him that he's not going to get overhyped, and I hope he doesn't get overprotected. I'm not predicting he's going to end up P4P, but I doubt he'll end up a 1 round KO victim against the first decent matchup of his career.

It is the Olympic team and the way they run the camp that seems to be the problem.....Not the fighters themselves...They need to allow these guys to have their regular trainers with them..

Wasn't that a big problem for Calvin Brock? He wanted to use his regular training regimen, but the olympic coaches use a one-size-fits-all approach?

I feel that this past olympics has a very strong pro roster coming out of it in just Andrade, Warren, and Russell Jr. They independently possess the most potential I have seen come out of the amateurs since Floyd Mayweather, and that doesn't even take into considering the rest of the Gary RUssell boys coming up.

Yes it was a prob for Brock...For a lot of guys it has been...also they seem to refuse to be willing to attempt any change in their system.....

I don't understand it
