Demetrius Andrade Destroys Jason Quigley to Retain the WBO Middleweight Title

Demetrius Andrade backed up his pre-fight predictions. The unbeaten WBO middleweight champion took on the Irishman Jason Quigley and defended his title for the fifth time. Andrade has held the belt for the past three years and does not intend on giving it up anytime soon.

The fight started off pretty slow, with both fighters sizing each other up. Neither of them looked to take the charge early on as they kept pawing at each other for a solid minute. Andrade then let off a flurry of punches that Quigley evaded pretty easily and countered with a straight right hand to the body. Quigley clipped Andrade again with another straight right hand.

This punch seemed to wake Andrade up as he connected with his own right, landing flush on Quigley’s temple, sending him tumbling to the canvas. With just a minute left to go in the round, Quigley beat the count and got back up. Quigley weathered the storm and made it out of the first round.

Andrade always starts strong and slows down in the later rounds. This characteristic of the WBO champ has become his fight style.

In the second round, Andrade looked more confident as he charged at his opponent. He immediately sent Quigley back to the canvas, but the referee ruled it as a slip. ‘Boo Boo’ then sent Quigley down again, this time the referee called it a knockdown. Another flurry of punches had Quigley on the ropes and down for the third time, as the referee called a stop to the contest.

Demetrius Andrade wants all the smoke

After yet another dominant performance inside the ring, the unbeaten WBO middleweight champion called out everyone in the division as he looks for his next fight.

He said, “So when I sit there and listen to you say, ‘oh Jaime Munguia, let’s fight Triple G’. That’s not in my direction. You’re advocating the wrong fight. Jaime Munguia need to be fighting me if he looking to fight Triple G.”

“Or if Triple G, or the winner or loser of Morata. I’ll fight either one of them coz they’re both elite top fighters, and I wanna get in there with the best. I wanna prove that I’m able to get in there and win.”
