NABA title had been stripped from Olivier Lontchi after he challenged Juan Manuel Lopez for the WBO Super Bantamweight title on June 27, 2009. Andrade came out mostly defensive. Rigondeaux looked to touch Andrade with the jab and follow it with a left hand to the body. In Round 2, Andrade attempted to aggravate Rigondeaux by yelling and motioning for Rigondeaux to come forward. Later in the round, without a punch landing, Andrade backed to the ropes and either slipped or took a knee. He remained on one knee and without complaining cupped his glove to his ear as the referee counted. He made it to his feet at the count of eight. Rigondeaux was warned at the end of the second for holding the back of Andrade's head. A left hand to the body put Andrade down at 2:40 of Round 3. Andrade went to both knees before making it to his feet at the count of six. Referee Samuel Burgos waved an end to the bout as it appeared Andrade did not want to continue.
