Jermall Charlo vs Sergey Derevyanchenko

Charlie will smash

 

Derevyanchenko wins easily

 

Would tend to favour Derev if he can stay off the floor in the first round, he is a strong lad with good fundamentals.

Charlo and Andrade need to spit or get off the pot, so I really hope this one happens.

 

This fight needs to happen. I like both guys and would easily call this a 50-50 fight. Charlo was lucky to get the W in the Karabov fight. Chenko is a different fighter and more aggressive. Might not work in his favor against a puncher with speed like Charlo. Charlo isn’t always the smartest fighter and Chenko could exploit this.

I hope it happens because it would be fun to watch. Was hoping Chenko would get a Canelo match but that doesn’t appear possible. Plus he technically lost to Jacobs and GGG so it’s understandable. I thought he edged GGG but it was pretty close.

 

Devriachenko won by knockout in the 10 round but if he passes 10 he wins by points

 

Shame about Jermall and his move to Middleweight.I think we all thought he would breath life into the division but four fights in, he still hasn’t looked like taking the division by storm.

 

Charlo has a shot of catching him cold early otherwise I see no path of victory for him. He'd get swarmed with volume and outworked so clearly that a robbery would be impossible.

 

Highy doubt that he'd fight Derevyanchenko.. I read that PBC was lining up Eubank Jr. for Jermall, which would make much more sense politically and would technically count as unification as Eubank-Korobov is for an interim middleweight title lol. If Eubank gets past Korobov (big if) there will probably be a staredown and **** on that card.

Not the best fight but certainly better than Dennis Hogan...

 

Exactly, Eubanks should make Charlo shine, god knows he needs it. Chnko is to game & skillful
by that I dont mean slick but has to many tried & tested Old skool tricks that Charlo would & does walk into
but has been lucky up to now mainly due to poor opposition

 

Fixed it for ya

 

Is JC even good? Derev was competitive against 2 best MW's. He hurt GGG to the body so hard, that he had to back up and it was for the first time we have seen Gennady being hurt like that. If Derev is not broken from his last hard fights, he would beat JC.

 

The harder hitter doesn't always win. How hard to you think Floyd was hitting at the end if his career?

SD outboxes Charlo based on what I"ve seen. Charlo relies on those big power shots but when they can be evaded his effectiveness diminishes.
