Of course, at its heart the interim WBC super middleweight belt is innuendo for a shot against Canelo Alvarez, something that Benavidez in particular hasn't been shy about. Ahead of this bout, however, the Mexican superstar is yet to acknowledge his potential mandatory challenger.
Benavidez, 26, is a big puncher whose power, height and strength often proves overwhelming. The two-time WBC super middleweight champion has knocked out 23 of his 27 opponents, but had to go the distance against the former champ Caleb Plant in his last fight seven months ago.
Andrade, 35, is 15 years into his career and must now rely on his brains as much as his brawn. The southpaw from Providence has a knack for setting traps for knockout blows or points on the scorecard, and possesses a knockout record of 19 from 32 fights.
