"He came to La Habra looking for sparring partners. In L.A. at the time, there weren't a lot of super middleweights. When I sparred with him for three rounds, I had just had a fight and had taken two weeks off from training. He had a real good jab, but it was nothing like they are trying to make it out to be, this laser-like jab. And he wasn't as powerful as they were saying. I am not taking anything away from him, he is a good boxer and a champion, but he was nothing like they were describing him," Andrade said.

McCullough, who has the tape of that session in his gym and has watched it several times, is a little less generous to Kessler. "Librado and Enrique both sparred with him. They were out of shape, but Kessler was only two weeks away from his fight. They both handled him with no problem. And while sparring is not a fight, I believe Librado is better in a real fight than he is in the gym. I really like the way he controlled Kessler," McCullough said.

I just tell you never listen to McCullough once again. I never saw a guy like Andrade taking as much punishment as Andrade that night.
