Fight preview

Welshman Liam Williams has a second crack at winning a world title on Saturday night and looks a spot of value to overpower well-regarded American champion Demetrius Andrade in Hollywood.

The WBO middleweight title-holder enjoyed a highly-decorated amateur career and is a two-weight world champion, but at the age of 33 he still lacks any notable scalps on his CV.

Undefeated in 29 professional bouts, Andrade has been touted as a potential opponent for the likes of Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez and Billy Joe Saunders, but the slick southpaw is yet to share the ring with an elite-level fighter.

Williams is not in the same class as Canelo or Saunders, but his tenacious and aggressive style could worry Andrade, who is a technical fighter with four wins on the scorecards in his last six bouts.

Now under the watchful eye of top coach Dominic Ingle, Williams has the arsenal to trouble Andrade and has been overlooked by the layers.

Since his two defeats to Liam Smith in 2017, Williams has knocked out each of his seven opponents and his best chance of beating Andrade is to be aggressive and take the fight to the champion.

Andrade is a tall and rangy fighter who has the ability to control proceedings with his jab and he is almost certain to try and use his slick skills to cruise to a win on points.

It would be a huge ask for Williams to outscore the American so getting up close and personal has to be his approach. If he is to emerge victorious he will need to stop Andrade and at the prices he is worthy of a small interest to do so in what is a fascinating clash of styles.
