And Crolla is obviously a better BOXER than your boy Derry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't lucky to take that draw. Maybe Derry's style just doesn't suit him. Are you saying Mayorga was a better fighter than Forrest? He knocked him out once and beat him on points once!
