    Oscar has form for doing this...he made sure Canelo swerved Derevyanchenko & GGG when they were Canelo's mandatory , so easy work for Oscar...

    Both guys are similar level but Derevyanchenko has more experience.

    He's the Shawn Porter of the division. A nearly man. He's missing a couple of pieces of the puzzle to get him to the top.

    Derevyanchenko is good but i've never been like ''wow, this guy is great''. He does the basics well but he's a bit easy to hit and leaves himself open when he tries to land blows on the inside. He can be countered.

    Munguia can be hit also but might be durable enough to weather the storm. Munguia throws good body shots like Deryvanchenko does.

    I think Munguia will beat him actually in a tough fight. I think he's a bit more mobile and mixes it up better.

    I think good movement is the thing which offsets Derevyanchenko and gives him the most trouble.
