ShoBox: Sergey Derevyanchenko vs. Elvin Ayala & Ievgen Khytrov vs. Nick Brinson RBR

That judge needs to be banned for life.

 

Good stoppage

 

All of the guys with 'Fight Promotions' train out of the same Brooklyn gym with Stark and Rozier it doesn't seem like the boxers have a choice in the matter but Khytrov moved to California maybe two months ago so we'll see what happens with his team in the future. Was Stark still in his corner tonight?

 

Watching that now. He's slugging it out getting pasted repeatedly by Juratoni. But that's just the first round.

He's a good fighter. Looks very similar to his current Stark-infested incarnation.

 

I've said similar things in the past about Khytrov (and a few other EE guys) that go to a completely different country and change everything, when it really isn't necessary for a lot of these guys, unless you can find a high level trainer where you will be the priority

However I remember watching Khytrov vs Ogogo in the olympics, and I seem to remember him fight similarly to how he does no, all though imo he was robbed in that fight

 

Watch his footwork in close and the angles he works, counter punching, combinations and punch selection and his ability to transition from offense to defense more fluidly. Now a days his movements a;; look so disjointed and everything is just worse, less sharp, less natural.

 

and yet do you remember Lomachenko's father's brilliant cornerwork in the Salido fight?

Gary Stark might offered the advice:"punch him BACK in the nuts!"

 

Round 1: 10-9 Derevyanchenko

10-9 Derevyanchenko

 

It's an 8 rounder isn't it?
