Librado Andrade back in action on May 6th with his brother

On Friday, May 6, Fantasy Springs Resort Casino in Indio, California will be the site of a family reunion, La Habra, California's favorite fistic brothers and longtime top contenders Librado Andrade and Enrique Ornelas, return home to Southern California to fight on the same card for the first time in over six years (last time was December 16, 2004 at the Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles) on TeleFutura's "Sólo Boxeo Tecate."

Andrade will see action in a ten round super middleweight main event while younger brother Ornelas (Andrade took their father's last name while Ornelas took their mother's) will fight in an eight round middleweight co-feature. Both will face opponents to be announced.

The bad news for whoever their opponents will be is that when the brothers have fought on the same event, they have produced a combined 15-1 record.

That and a year of inactivity.

It's a pity Andrade is with Haymon and Golden Boy, I'd still pick him in an entertaining scrap vs Pavlik.
