    Yeah, he deserves respect and deserves the win. Let Derev get the win and give Munguia the respect but no win.

    Actually, that probably was a 10-8 round, that's probably the most severe beating I've seen without a KD, at least if I remember correctly.

    Had this been a prime Derevyanchenko, he would have handled Munguia clearly. Instead, you had a faded version who didn't have his old sharpness, so he was nicked by a younger, bigger guy. Golden Boy just barely got the call right here, even though Derevyanchenko could have gotten the nod without any fuss. You could see De La Hoya sweating bullets ringside, though. He should know now that he has to find someone to cash Munguia out against. He's barely getting by fringe contenders.

    Exactomundo For some reason Derev never gets a break. He must be the unluckiest fighter in modern history
    He deserved to win that fight

    I think people are crying robbery because the rnds Derevyanchenko won he won them pretty dominant. The rnds Munguia won he did not win in dominate fashion but he won those rnds except for the last rnd where he got the knock down. I had it 6 - 6 with the knockdown winning the fight. It was a back and forth fight. Honestly either guy could have gotten the nod. This was not a robbery and had it not been for rnd 12 , in my opinion, Derevyanchenko would have gotten hand raised but that knock down was huge.

    Couldn't agree more. I wasn't able to watch this fight live, but I watched it today, and scored it the same as you, even in rounds, but the KD deciding it in the twelfth for a 114-113 tally for Munguia.

    Modern boxing fans are far too quick to scream "robbery," and get all worked up over it. I think it makes them feel important, like they "know" more than experienced officials. In most instances, they seem more like unhinged cranks, frankly - particularly when they rail about close fights like this.

    In sum, the judges who scored it 114-113 were right on the money in my view. And, as usual, no robbery, just a close fight with debatable rounds.

    Delahoya was practically crying when he heard the scores, knowing it was going to be Derev's Victory, but was shocked and relieved when he heard it was Munguia.

    Heard and read plenty of times that judges are discouraged from giving 10-10 rounds.

    Cracking fight!

    As usual the fans throw the word 'robbery' around too flippantly.

    But I'm also realist, when it's a close fight like that I would be surprised to see the deck fall Derevyanchenkos way. Boxing politics....

    A judge should know who is winning a round at all times. So it is genuinely hard to call many rounds 10-10.

    This is how i had it.

    I caught up on the fight today here's how i had it

    1 Derevyanchenko
    2 Muniga
    3 Derevyanchenko
    4 Muniga
    5 Derevyanchenko
    6 Muniga
    7 Derevyanchenko
    8 Derevyanchenko
    9 Derevyanchenko
    10 Derevyanchenko
    11 Muniga
    12 Muniga 10-8 Knockdown

    114-113 Derevyanchenko

    Muniga had the strong finish but overall i felt Derevyanchenko had too much of a lead, i much preferred Derevyanchenko's defense, jab, clean punching, and backing up the bigger man.

    Yes in the end it became closer but i still think Derevyanchenko was very unlucky not to win this fight.
