Comments Thread For: TV Picks of The Week: Christian Mbilli vs. Sergey Derevyanchenko

[TonyRespectful]

Typical showcase fights this promotion specializes in,there’s never any suspense as to who and how they will win .

Derevyanchenko is tougher than a pair of old combat boots. He's an integral part of the Truth Machine that is boxing. He separates the wheat from the chaff. If you aren't top level , Derevyanchenko will show it. I really hope that he is making good money in his career because he sure deserves it. Mbilli seems like the kind of guy that won't take any opponent lightly and will be well prepared when he steps into the ring. I believe that he's got the quality to beat Derevyanchenko , but as usual, it won't be easy.

Damn good post, pnut. I agree on all counts.

It’s like Canelo post Bivol.

It’s like Canelo post Bivol.

You are correct,the only difference is that Mbilli has had 27 now 28 setups without challenging himself.Far different than early Canelo or no ?

I think MbIlli stops him. With Benavidez and Morrell moving up, he looks like the best contender in the division.

his style plays into Mbilli hands

Sergey stood on the inside to **** with Munguia

but Mbilli is better defensively. Good bob & weave

if derevyanchenko somehow wins, i would like canelo - derevyanchenko next. since canelo won't fight benavidez, morrell nor scull (all 3 of them were his mandatories for 2+ years), i feel like derevyanchenko deserves that payday more than any other boxer at 168 and 160. i wouldn't be mad if he fought sergey this september instead of totally undeserving berlanga. in fact, mbilli - berlanga would have been a nice fight for this year.

or Mbilli win

then Mbilli-Munguia

followed by Mbilli-*Alvarez

and Mbilli-*Benavidez

*these modern day Mexicans need breathers mid fight

this plays into the swarmer’s strengths

Sorry, I meant Joel. I think Jorge was a bantamweight in the 90s.

Joel has to be ancient at this point too. I remember when he fought Alfredo Angulo about 15 years ago....

Kinda light this weekend for boxing. Only one I will have access to is that Mbilli/Devryenchenko card.

Makhmudov picking up the pieces of his career with a fight against Vianello. Guido nearly pulled off the upset against a very lethargic Ajagba.... probably the best I've seen the Italian fighter look. That said, Makhmudov should be able to blow out Vianello.
