i forgot all about this :heh: Zab was not having it during that build up lol....its a shame..he gave his last great effort in that fight...one of the few to legit light up ol Lloyd Christmas and his caveman chin lol


Oscar vs Zab would have been a fun fight. It would have been perfect for Oscar before the Manny fight.

Who is it named after?

The Cruiserweight division is actually gotten better this year :ehh:

Okolie aka Hug-kolie losing his titles really opens up the division and made it more exciting

Some kid who got tore up saving a girl from a dog. His name is Bridger I believe.

It's a kind gesture and it's cool they honored him, but it's a dumbazz name for a division imo

I may be in the extreme minority but I like that there is a lot of belts that are made with the sanctioning bodies like the like the "WBA regular belt" or the "WBA silver tile", "WBC internationally title" etc etc

Boxing needs more awards for fighters who have achieved something but not at the highest level. There are Boxers who will never win a World title or make it to the Hall of Fame

There’s plenty of organizations/belts out there besides the big 4 like the IBO & Common wealth for example that should satisfy this requirement.

The big 4 should be more exclusive and for the elite IMO.

Three-time middleweight title challenger Sergiy Derevyanchenko (14-5, 10 KOs), 38, a Ukrainian fighting out of Brooklyn, New York, will face D'Mitrius Ballard (21-2-1, 13 KOs), 30, of Temple Hills, Maryland, in a 10-round super middleweight bout on the Vergil Ortiz Jr.-Fredrick Lawson undercard on Jan. 6 (DAZN) at the Virgin Hotels in Las Vegas, Derevyanchenko manager Keith Connolly told Fight Freaks Unite on Friday. Derevyanchenko moved up to super middleweight in June and lost a wildly violent fight of the year contender by close decision to Jaime Munguia on June 10. Golden Boy owed Derevyanchenko another fight. Ballard, who is moving up to super middleweight, has lost two in a row, a third-round KO to Munguia in February 2022 and by seventh-round KO to Shane Mosley Jr. on the Munguia-Derevyanchenko card.

good this is what they need to do for derevyanchenko....the man has a journeyman record for being put through the wringer...he needs like 3-4 of these type fights
