The 33-year-old Andrade, from Providence, Rhode Island, improved to 31-0 with his 15th knockout, dropping Quigley (19-2, 14 knockouts) three times. Andrade successfully defended the WBO middleweight title he won in October of 2018 for the fifth time. In his last defense, he won a unanimous decision against Liam Williams on April 17.
