Possible Fight: Demetrius Andrade v Yamaguchi Falcao

Demetrius Andrade could be gloving up again soon. The Rhode Island middleweight, we hear, is in talks to fight in July, perhaps versus Yamaguchi Falcao.

A possible venue is Turning Stone, in Verona, NY.

Andrade fought his last bout at Verona. In October, he downed Alantez Fox. The 30 year old is 25-0, and co promoted, by Joe DeGuardia and Art Pelullo. Falcao is 30, 14-0, and signed to Golden Boy. He’d be the underdog in this proposed matchup. 

Founder/editor Michael Woods got addicted to boxing in 1990, when Buster Douglas shocked the world with his demolition of the then-impregnable Mike Tyson. The Brooklyn-based journalist has covered the sport since for ESPN The Magazine, ESPN.com, Bad Left Hook and RING. His journalism career started with NY Newsday in 1999. Michael Woods is also an accomplished blow by blow and color man, having done work for Top Rank, DiBella Entertainment, EPIX, and for Facebook Fightnight Live, since 2017.
