Lol! How does Dervynchenko get another shot at the IBF after losing to Jacobs!

al gaymon paying off the ibf as usual

even if he wins vs Culcay! that’s easy work for Canelo! Because he put up a good fight and lost out to the champion... no one else

I mean its not like Jacobs blew him out, it was a close competitive fight, and on one card Derevaynchenko was actually up, it was SD decision for Jacobs.

IBF rankings are PATHETIC. Golovkin attended their meeting to keep his belt but got stripped because he was taking on a fight for his biggest payday. He is ranked #10 after..... Jack Calcay Sergiy Derevyanchenko Kamil Szeremeta David Lemieux Ryota Murata Patrick Wojcicki Esquiva Falcao Gerome Quigley He KO'd Lemieux after 8 rounds and didn't lose a single round on all 3 judges scorecard. How is Lemieux above him, let alone all the others? They want another Wade type opponent to take on Canelo? That's just fu*king dangerous. Terrible sanctioning body - putting fighters at risk - not protecting them.

even if he wins vs Culcay! that’s easy work for Canelo! Because he was the IBF's #1 challenger, and ended up losing a close fight to the IBF's #7 challenger for the vacant title. What did you think would happen?

He had a very close fight vs Jacobs...in fact i scored it a very narrow 114-113 win for Jacobs but 115-112 is fine too. Derevyanchenko vs Canelo is an interesting fight if Canelo does indeed win

He didn't lose to Jacobs by much and fighters ten times worse than him get title fights all the time. He might be a better fighter than either Jermall or Andrade. Certainly he is a better fighter by far than anybody they ever fought.

There's about 10 good Middleweights and Derevyanchenko is one of them. I have to issue with this.

He's a good fighter and ran Jacobs close. I don't see the issue with him maintaining a good ranking. He's in the mix. He's a far better fighter than Charlo.

Lost a close fight to a top fighter, just like Jacobs' loss to Golovkin. On my card at least, both were decided by an early flash kd.

How does Culcay get a shot is a better question?����

Nothing wrong with him. When a top fighter loses a title fight, you put them in an eliminator against a contender.

dere isn't a bad fighter at all and the IBF rankings always sucked so....

Promoter? Manager? When Porter lost the IBF belt to Brook. Porter was completely dropped out of the IBF rankings!

Promoter? Manager?
