Sergiy Derevyanchenko and Demetrius Andrade agree to fight

Booboo should be too slick and too long in this one
Booboo is a level above IMO

 

Culcay is like a little terrier, I don't know how he does it but these big long guys struggle to keep him off.
Culcay seems to be quite a smooth operator tbh, he is also very tenacious and has a lot of go in him.
He is super fit and rugged, and hard to tag. Culcay also did surprisingly well against another guy I rate highly, Sulecki. TBH I pretty much thought Culcay did enough to beat Booboo, and the punch stats were disgustingly lop sided.

I suppose it seems fair to make the comparison because Derevyanchenko does appear to have a few big advantages over Culcay, most notably size, power and strength. I think Culcay, is a bit more slippery and awkward, I also doubt Derevyanchenko can fight at a tempo to pressurize Booboo the same way Culcay did. Culcay might just be a bit better than expected and Booboo had an off night at the same time. I think Booboo will be up for this fight as Derevyanchenko is rated as a huge threat.

 

Scary fight... Johnson's corner/ref should have saved him from the beating he took at least 2-3 rounds earlier.

 

Johnson is either a Provodnikov level chin or Derevyanchenko doesn't hit that hard?
That was a good performance but I just think you need to be a bit better than that to beat Booboo.

 

I like this as it ties up a mandatory which allows the may 5 winner to unify with Saunders

 

Interesting.

 

Devery's good. I think he's the second best Ukranian.

Andrade picked a hell of a chore for his 2018 fight.

 

Derevyanchenko is a tidy little fighter but lacks the speed and athleticism to deal with such a gifted secimen like Andrade. D-rev also has a solid corner and team around him but they can only do so much by mid rounds Boo boo will have taken over and probably scored a flash KD along the way before really stepping it up and getting the TKO or retirement before the 11th.

D-rev is lucky he is getting Boo boo because evil twin Jermall would KO him hard and early. Way to stationary and easy to fit for a guy like Jermall.

 

Derevyanchenko all day. From what I've seen of Andrade, he's a hyped fighter whose expectations are above his talent level. He's good, but 2 very close decisions against Culcay and Martirosyan, coincidentally his toughest opposition in a relatively inactive career, indicate the level he's still at. Derevyanchenko simply too good, too strong.

 

HBO has to spend some money so I doubt this is going to happen.

 

Let’s see it! Booboo can pull it off but it won’t be easy

 

Hope to see this fight..............
