Demetrius Cesar Andrade (/ˈændrəd/ AN-drəd; born February 26, 1988) is an American professional boxer. He is a former WBO light middleweight champion and currently holds the WBO International light middleweight title. As an amateur he is a two-time National Golden Gloves champion and won a gold medal at the 2007 World Championships. Andrade also represented the United States at the 2008 Olympics where, after overcoming two tough opponents, he suffered a surprising defeat to Kim Jung-joo in the quarterfinals.
Demetrius Andrade obtained arguably the most successful amateur boxing reputation amongst all Rhode Island fighters in history. A Providence native of Cape Verdean descent, southpaw Andrade began boxing in 1994 at the age of 6. His nickname "Boo Boo" quickly became well known amongst the locals and he later became a recognized name across the United States.
Andrade won the United States Amateur Boxing Championship in 2005, and repeated it in 2006 when he also won the National Golden Gloves. He again won the National Golden Gloves in 2007, but did not compete in the U.S. Amateurs that year due to injury.
