Comments Thread For: BoxingScene.com's 2019 Fight of the Year: Golovkin-Derevyanchenko

[MDPopescu]

... also checked some other web sites...

The Ring Magazine, ESPN, Yahoo Sports, Boxing News Online, BBC (Costello), and Bad Left Hook all have Inoue vs Donaire at #1...

Prograis vs Taylor probably shoulda been given a shout too.

Agreed. Ruiz G’s AJ as well. DAZN really had a great year.

Derevyanchenko won in my eyes. He at least deserved a rematch.

[Slowhand]

Those were all fun wars to watch, but in terms of skill and speed Loma vs Campbell was also worth a mention. Clear UD for loma but most rounds were very competitive. I know, it was not a slug fest and most casuals probably didn´t even understand what was happening (not saying I´m an expert either).

So a robbery is FOTY! LMAO

Yeah, it was a robbery, but definitely FOTY anyway

That was actually a really damn good fight... unfortunately the result was a robbery. Derevyanchenko made Golovkin look absolutely terrible and FAR past prime. The sad part is he won't get a rematch. I have a hard time believing GGG beats Derevyanchenko, Canelo, and Jacobs in rematches. Whether its 160-168.

I kinda believe even Charlo would give him a hard time... Disregarding all the flak Charlo get's for his resume, I think he'd at least give GGG a hard time.

It was a goodie. 3rd best?

KO of year was wilder over brazealle, and fight of the year was Ruiz vs Joshua 1.... boxingscene got those wrong

I agree with the KO by Wilder as it was awesome maybe his KO of Ortiz was better?? Anyways I cannot give AJ-RUIZ as FOTY maybe as shock of the year or biggest laugh of the year. The GGG-DEREVYCHENKO was brilliant and you couldn't predict who would win at the end.

I liked Spence vs Porter more tbh.
