[QUOTE=Ake-Dawg;18755424]Derevyechenko has 12 fights. Why would the unified champ fight a guy with 12 fights, who's his mandatory on a month's notice?
I agree it wasn't his ONLY option. Spike could've fought him, but I don't blame him for not wasting his time on Derevyechenko.
He's 36. He should be fighting either big money fights like his fights against Brook, Jacobs, and Canelo, or fighting to unify with Saunders, or just fighting stay busy fights to prepare him for the first two types of fights.
