Munguia vs Derevyanchenko full fight video highlights and results: Jaime Munguia edges Sergiy Derevyanchenko with late fight dramatics

Jaime Munguia (42-0, 33 KO) and Sergiy Derevyanchenko (14-5, 10 KO) put on a thrilling fight in DAZN’s main event, with enough action and dramatics to satisfy just about anybody. Perhaps the most surprising thing about this fight was how Derevyanchenko was largely able to push the pace and use angles that really gave Munguia fits throughout the fight.

Combine that with Munguia’s leaky defense and Derevyanchenko was able to really give him all he could handle despite being the visibly smaller fighter in the fight. The dramatics his a crescendo in the final round with the fight seemingly in the balance. Munguia would hurt and drop Derevyanchenko and then although he looked like he would secure the finish, Derevyanchenko managed to use his knowhow to make it to the final bell.

The three official judges ended up turning in scores of 115-112, 114-113, and 114-113, all in favor of Munguia. BLH also scored the fight for Munguia, 114-113. There were some hard words of robbery after the fight, for those who think Derevyanchenko deserved the nod, but the fight itself was close and competitive throughout with a lot of back and forth action.
