Comments Thread For: DiBella: Derevyanchenko Same Quality Of Foe For Jacobs As GGG

Man, I'm starting to worry about Sergei. I don't think dude's getting enough to eat.

Pirog Flashbacks or nah???

That Pirog KO was a thing of beauty, but it happened because Dmitry was so unorthodox and such an unknown quantity. Derevyanchenko is highly skilled, compact and quite fluid, but doesn't do anything Danny won't have seen before. Simple fact is these guys know each too well and are going to be ready to defend against whatever the other brings. Expect a closely fought war of attrition which will be one step away from a stalemate... I'm giving Danny the edge because of his greater top flight experience but honestly I could see it going either way.

close fight, interested to see how it pans out. Jacobs going to need a stronger performance than his last two.

LOL, he is kidding right?

Look, I favor euro fighters but let's be honest here... Derev is no GGG....

Jacobs cruises to easy victory here.

I saw an interview with Jacobs and he said he will take this fight more seriously than his past two fights. That is good but a fighter should take every fight seriously. They simply don't learn when they fight down to the level of their opposition.
