Say your new wishes for the new year 2024
I sometimes wonder if Sergiy Derevyanchenko should think about his retirement plans.
Sergey Dlevyanchenko, who has challenged for the middleweight world title three times, was injured in an accident during a training camp and has not improved after a year, and had to withdraw from the tournament scheduled for January 6 at the Virgin Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada, according to ESPN TV in the United States.
It can be said that this injury has made the future career of Sergei Dlevyanchenko, who was not very active, even more confusing. Because since 2020, he has only played once a year.
Sergey Dlevyanchenko may not have won a World Title, but every bout he has participated in has been a masterpiece. Sergey Drevyanchenko lost to Jamie Monguia by unanimous decision after 12 rounds in 2023, but the bout gave fans a taste of the game's ups and downs. It also makes this competition one of the candidates for the 2023 Best of the Year.
At the moment, Sergey Drevyanchenko's team has not released details of his injury. So it's unclear whether Sergey Dlevyanchenko will miss the first quarter of 2024 or stay away for a longer time.
Sergei Drevyanchenko is from Ukraine, where he represented at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. After moving to the professional boxing ring, Sergey Dlevyanchenko has also been considered a worthy fighter to threaten the middleweight world title. And he's also undefeated, with all five of his defeats coming in the last seven matches.
In 2018, Sergey Dlevyanchenko battled Daniel Jacobs for the vacant IBF middleweight world title at the Madison Square Garden Theater in New York City. A year later, in 2019, Sergey Drevyanchenko and then-middleweight hegemon Gennady Golovkin battled for the World Title, and although he lost again, that fight was voted the best of the year by several ** in that year.
However, in the following years, Sergei Dlevyanchenko's form began to decline, and he lost to Gemmar Charlo in 2020, and even Sergey Dlevyanchenko himself was not satisfied with his performance in the competition. In 2021, Sergei Dlevyanchenko lost to Carlos Adams, and in 2023, Sergei Dlevyanchenko lost to Jamie Monguia.
In the boxing ring, no one wants to lose all the time. While Sergey Dlevyanchenko has played well in recent years, he should really consider making a retirement plan for himself.
