    Who wins this one and how?
    Andrade can carve out a pretty good legacy for himself if he starts fighting guys in the Ring or Transnational top 10 from here on out. He already has two, Sulecki and Williams, the williams fight being pretty exciting. I think most of the top 10 guys would be exciting fights for him and it would take away the boring fighter stigma that has been holding back his career.

    Cant imagine Derevyenchenko is ranked in any top 10s at the moment after back to back losses.

    I do want to see Andrade in those quality fights though.

    I think Dev has had the stuffing punched out of him now. Even going into the Jermallo fight he had been softened up by those three back to back 12 round wars against Jacobs, Culcay, and especially GGG who really isn't someone you want to be taking 12 rounds of this kind of brain abuse from (see vid below) because he has freakishly heavy hands, and he was dropped, very nearly dropped, and hurt and took a lot of punishment in all three of those fights. And then Al decided to throw him to the wolves again by sticking him in with Jermallo in yet another brutal 12 round war where he took a lot of heavy shots and brain abuse again.

    And he had 410 amateur fights on top of that. Personally I would like to see him retire because even if he did still have enough left to beat one of the home champs over there we all know he'd still get stiffed by their obligatory full set of home judges and to be honest I'd rather not see him take anymore punishment because he's shipped a ton of it in back to back 12 round wars four times now.

    He is ranked high because he only lost to the very best and in close competitive fights, vs Jacobs, GGG, and Charlo, although those fights must have taken something out of him.

    I honestly don't see the point, Dev's had 3 chances, reckon he was a tad unlucky v GGG, judges were kind to him against Jacobs and he lost clearly to Charlo. A nearly man, like Liam Williams.

    The difference being that Derevy has fought a gauntlet vs elite fighters whereas Liam lost twice to a low quality belterholder who i wouldn't really classify as being world class personally. Derevy has proven he could pick up a belt if promoters favored him to do so.
