Kalenga nikada nije bio u dosadnoj borbi.

Caribe Promotions loses rights to Shumenov-Dorticos WBA cruiserweight title fight; TGB Promotions awarded rights

LAS VEGAS (Siječanj 31, 2017) – The World Boxing Association (WBA) has notified WBA cruiserweight world champion Shumenov Beibu and WBA Interim cruiserweight title-holder Yunier Dorticos, as well as their representatives, that Caribe Promotions has lost its rights to promote the WBA mandated Shumenov vs. Dorticos title fight.
Dorticós’ pokretač, Caribe Promotions, originally won the Shumenov vs. Dorticos title fight rights last November with a winning purse bid of $350,001, which required a fight date unutar 90 dani. Although rumored to be held in mid-February in either Miami or Las Vegas, Caribe’s ability and willingness to actually promote the fight came into question in January, 2017. The WBA demanded that Caribe confirm its intentions and even granted Caribe additional time to respond, but Caribe failed to file confirmation of a fight date with the WBA. Because Caribe was unable to confirm its intentions, the WBA had little choice but to award rights to the second-highest purse bidder, Tom Brown’s TGB Promotions.
I last fought 21. maj and I have been in the gym since June because I was supposed to fight Lebedev in September,” said a terribly frustrated Shumenov. “But he backed out of the fight with me once again and I have been ready to fight since then. I signed a bout agreement to fight Dorticos on February 11thu Miami, but Dorticos and his promoter disappeared after I signed. They’re full of it; all they do is talk. I can’t wait to knock him out. I am waiting on my manager to call me right now to tell me the new fight date with TGB.
Caribe Promotions has been forced to also forfeit its $35,000 purse bid deposit with 10-percent off the top going to the WBA and remainder ($31,500) distributed to Shumenov and Dorticos, odnosno, on a 75-25 percent basis due to its failure to promote the fight.
Shumenov (17-2, 11 KOs), fighting out of Las Vegas by way of Kazakhstan, fought last Maj 21, kada je zaustavio 15-1-1 Junior Wright u 10th round of their Las Vegas fight for the vacant WBA World cruiserweight title. The WBA had ruled that the Shumenov-Wright winner would be the mandatory challenger for its “Super” prvak, Lebedev, unutar 90 dani, međutim, it later allowed unified cruiserweight titlist Lebedev (against Shumenov’s strong objections) to fight his International Boxing Federation (IBF) mandatory defense against challenger Murat Gassiev, effectively mandating an eliminator between Shumenov and Dorticos with that winner to fight the winner of Lebedev-Gassiev. Only days prior to the Lebedev-Gassiev title fight, Lebedev was inexplicably allowed to fight Gassiev without defending his WBA title, as only his IBF belt was on the line. Gassiev (24-0) defeated Lebedev (29-3) by way of a 12-round split decision in Moscow to become the IBF cruiserweight world champion and Lebedev remains the WBA Super cruiserweight world champion, at least for now. The WBA is expected to rule on Shumenov’s objections to Lebedev’s fight against Gassiev, Lebedev’s status and whether Lebedev will remain champion having lost his last fight.
Dorticos has made false claims in the media that Shumenov, who had been waiting for the WBA to rule on his petitions to force Lebedev to fight him without further delay, had been avoiding him. It is ironic now that Dorticosown promoter first sought to delay and has now defaulted on the long-awaited confrontation by failing to promote the Shumenov-Dorticos title fight within the WBA deadline.
A former WBA Super light heavyweight world champion, the 33-year-old Shumenov is the first two-division world champion from a Soviet-bloc country.

Tim Šumenov odgovara na Lebedev vs.. Gassiev najava borbe za svjetski naslov

LAS VEGAS (Avgust 17,, 2016) – Tim Šumenov smatra da je vrijedno pregledati nedavnu istoriju nedavne najave da je WBA Super / IBF svjetski prvak u najtežoj kategoriji Denis Lebedev će se braniti od Murat Gassiev krajem novembra ili početkom decembra u Rusiji: Uvjet za omogućavanje Lebedevu da se bori protiv IBF prvaka u najtežoj kategoriji Victor Emilio Ramirez maja 21, 2016 je bilo da se Lebedev morao boriti sa WBA svjetskim prvakom u najtežoj kategoriji Shumenov Beibu unutar 120 dani. (Lebedev nije izvršio obaveznu odbranu od aprila 10, 2015.) Šumenov je učinio sve da napravi tu borbu, dok Lebedev nije napravio ništa osim što je bježao od svoje obavezne borbe za naslov. Kada je u junu prvi put postalo očigledno da Lebedev pokušava izbjeći svoju obaveznu borbu za naslov WBA, Šumenov je više puta tražio da WBA naredi ponudu za novčanik.
Lebedev je ignorirao WBA, a zatim je nedavno tražio, nakon što je prošao rok za WBA, posebna dozvola koja mu omogućava da se bori protiv Gassieva, na šta se Šumenov zvanično protivio unutar 48 sati. WBA Privremeni svjetski prvak u kruzeru Yunier Dorticos se takođe usprotivio. U ovom trenutku, iako, Tim Šumenov još uvijek čeka da čuje presudu WBA u smislu oduzimanja Lebedeva ako se odluči boriti protiv Gassieva umjesto protiv Šumenova.
Zaista je vrlo jednostavno. Šumenov se želi boriti protiv Lebedeva, koji čini sve da to izbjegne. Ako Lebedev ne brine da ispuni svoje obaveze i uvjete iz svoje prethodne posebne dozvole, trebao bi se odreći svoje titule. Lebedev i njegovi ljudi trebaju se pridružiti nama ostalima u stvarnom svijetu i prestati tvrditi da Šumenov nije forsirao ovu borbu.
Prema nedavnom izvještaju, Članovi kampa Lebedev pogrešno su to prijavili, “Šumenov baš i ne postavlja pitanje” (da se sljedeća bori protiv Lebedeva).

Tim Šumenov podnosi molbu WBA-u da objavi ponudu za obaveznu borbu za naslov protiv. Lebedev ili oduzeti Lebedevu njegov svjetski pojas u kruzer kategoriji

LAS VEGAS (Juli 22, 2016) – Prošlo je više od mjesec dana od Svjetske boksačke asocijacije (WBA) svjetski prvak u kruzeru Shumenov Beibu (16-2, 10 KOs), zasnovan na mnogo publiciranim pravilima i propisima WBA turnira u najtežoj kategoriji, podnio molbu WBA-u da objavi ponudu za novčanik za borbu za naslov između WBA prvaka u super kruseru Denis Lebedev, ili oduzeti Lebedevu naslovni pojas zbog nepridržavanja propisa.
U julu prošle godine, Šumenov poražen B.J. Cvijeće putem jednoglasne odluke od 12 rundi da postane obavezni izazivač WBA za Lebedeva, koji se nije borio protiv obavezne odbrane od aprila 10, 2015.
WBA je prošlog aprila izdao rezoluciju da je Lebedev, koji je poražen Victor Emelio Ramirez u maju takođe postati prvak Međunarodne boksačke federacije u kruzer kategoriji, mora se boriti protiv Šumenova unutar 120 dani potonjeg maja 21, 2016 nokaut pobjeda nad Junior Wright.
Evidentirano zbog promjena kako bi se osigurao samo po jedan svjetski prvak u svakoj diviziji, nevjerovatno, WBA trenutno ima 38 samo različiti nositelji pojaseva sa svjetskim naslovima 17 različite kategorije težine. Samo tri WBA divizije imaju jednog svjetskog prvaka – Super lagana, lagana i lagana muha – a osam ima tri svjetske titliste, uključujući i njegovu kruzer kategoriju, koja trenutno ima svjetske prvake u Lebedevu, Šumenov i privremeni prvak Yunier Dorticos, koji je drugi obavezni izazivač WBA-a.
Očigledan potez odnosa s javnošću, WBA je ovog mjeseca odjednom proglasio osipom obaveznih obrana, međutim, Izjava i zapravo vođenje ove borbe za naslov su dvije različite stvari, kako je Šumenov nažalost naučio. WBA je trebao naručiti Lebedev vs.. Ponuda za torbicu Šumenova održana je u junu 21, 2016, kada se dvije strane nisu mogle dogovoriti, ali WBA to nije uspio. Kada je Šumenov u junu ponovio svoj zahtjev za nadmetanjem, WBA još jednom nije djelovao.
WBA pravilo D: Ponude za tašnu
1. Poziv za nadmetanje. Učesnici borbe postići će dogovor o održavanju borbe najkasnije devedeset (90) days before the expiration of the mandatory period. To confirm an agreement has been reached, the WBA must receive acceptable bout contracts signed by the boxers certifying they have reached terms for the bout. If no agreement has been reached, the Championships Committee, with the approval of the President, can call for Purse bid. A boxer may also request a purse bid at any time.
Lebedev’s promoter, Andrej Rjabinski, has been quoted in stories about having a deal in place for his fighter to defend his IBF title first. In effect, the WBA is allowing Lebedev to hold the WBA Super cruiserweight title belt hostage, leveraging it against his IBF crown. Shumenov, who is a former WBA Super light heavyweight champion, has now proudly worn the WBA belt around his waist for a total of nearly five years.
I was looking forward to fighting Lebedev and I don’t understand his unwillingness and refusal to step in the ring with me,” Shumenov rekao.
Team Shumenov is extremely disappointed in the WBA’s failure to act on making the fight with Lebedev that it mandated, in addition to being discouraged by the WBA’s failure, after several requests had been made, to either set a purse bid date or strip Lebedev of his world title belt. Not knowing if or when the WBA is finally going to rule has left Shumenov unable to book any fights. The WBA’s failure to enforce its own purse bid rule, or strip Lebedev, has unfairly prevented Shumenov from earning a living while at the peak of his pro boxing career.
Shumenov is the only native Kazakh to be a two-division world champion. Now a resident of Las Vegas, he also represented his native Kazakhstan at the 2004 Olympics in Greece.

World champion Beibut Shumenov to defend title vs. Junior Wright this Saturday night in Las Vegas

LAS VEGAS (Maj 18, 2016) – World Boxing Association (WBA) Privremeni kruzer svetski šampion Shumenov Beibu (16-2, 10 KOs) makes his first title defense ove subote noć (Maj 21) against WBA No. 11-procijenjen Junior “Uragan” Wright (15-1-1, 12 KOs) at The Chelsea inside of The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.
I’m happy to get the opportunity to fight ove subote noć,” Shumenov rekao, “but I wish that I could fight more often. I’ve been ready since January. Every training session I gain new knowledge. I am a completely different fighter than in my last fight.
Shumenov’s last fight was back in July, in which he defeated B.J. Cvijeće (31-1-1, 20 KOs) by 12-round unanimous decision in Las Vegas to capture the vacant WBA Interim title, making the former WBA light heavyweight champion Shumenov the first professional boxer from Kazakhstan to be a two-division world champion.
By becoming the WBA Interim cruiserweight champion, Shumenov also became the No. 1 ranked mandatory challenger for WBA Super cruiserweight titlist Denis Lebedev (28-2, 21 KOs), who also fights ove subote in Russia against International Boxing Federation (IBF) prvak Victor Emilio “Tyson de Abasto” Ramirez (22-2-1, 17 KOs) in a unification match.
The WBA has already mandated that the Lebedev-Ramirez must fight Shumenovunutar 120 dani. The WBA, međutim, has failed to explain why it also declared a WBA “redovan” cruiserweight world title fight ovog petka night in France between No. 2 Yunier Dorticos No i. 5 Youri KALENGA (since upgraded to No. 3), especially after announcing that it would work this year to have only one world champion in each weight class.
Shumenov, naravno, is risking his mandatory position by fighting Wright, the former 5-time Chicago Golden Gloves champion. “I need to stay active,” Shumenov explained why he’s taking such a risk. “Svaka borba, I gain experience and it also helps me develop my fighting skills.
The 12-round Shumenov vs. Wright title fight is on the non-televised portion of The Cosmopolitan show.

WBA Privremeni svjetski prvak u kruzeru & Mandatory challenger Beibut Shumenov protests Dorticos-Kalenga WBA “redovan” world cruiserweight title fight

LAS VEGAS (April 29, 2016) – World Boxing Association (WBA) Interim cruiserweight world champion Shumenov Beibu (16-2, 10 KOs), the only Kazakhstan-native to hold world titles in two different weight classes, is disputing the WBA’s sanctioning of the WBA “redovan” cruiserweight world championship fight, Maj 20 u Parizu, between two lower-ranked WBA fighters, Nemoj. 2 Yunier Dorticos No i. 5 Youri KALENGA (recently upgraded to No. 3).
U julu prošle godine, Šumenov poražen B.J. Cvijeće by way of a 12-round unanimous decision to become the mandatory challenger for WBA “redovan” Cruiserweight prvak Denis Lebedev, who was later elevated to “Super” prvak.
Lebedev hasn’t fought a mandatory defense u jednoj godini, ironično, when he won a 12-round decision over Kalenga, who had earned his world title shot, like Shumenov, by becoming WBA Interim world champion. The WBA granted Lebedev an extension in terms of his due mandatory defense because of the Russian’s unification fight Maj 21 in Moscow against International Boxing Federation (IBF) title-držač Victor Emelio Ramirez.
I’m very disappointed the WBA is sanctioning Dorticos-Kalenga for its ‘regularcruiserweight title, when I am the No. 1 ranked and current WBA Interim champion,” Shumenov rekao. “I repeatedly informed the WBA through emails, texts and verbally that I was ready to fight back in January. I preferred to fight Lebedev but I was willing to fight Dorticos or anybody else in the top 15. For the past few months, I’ve been laboring over what I believe is a very bad decision, letting two lower-ranked fighters, No. 2 No i. 3 momci, fight for the WBA ‘regular’ naslov. I am shocked and bewildered and do not understand the WBA’s rationale to have either of these fighters declared the WBA ‘regularchampion without first defeating either Lebedev or me, the Interim champion and No. 1 rank contender.
I appealed the decision but, so far, the WBA has done little in response to my appeals other than delay and stall before finally ruling that I will fight the Lebedev-Ramirez winner months from now, još, ignoring my appeal to stop the regular title status of Dorticos-Kalenga and still sanction a fight between them, its No. 2 No i. 3 rated fighters, for the WBA ‘regular’ naslov. This is unfair to fans, who deserve to watch the best fighting the best, especially when a world championship is at stake! We now have this odd situation where there will be three separate WBA cruiserweight fights in May, all for a different version of WBA world title I just don’t feel anyone should get the WBA ‘regulartitle without first defeating a champion or at least the top-ranked fighter in the division. The WBA knew I was and am ready to fight. Its decision makes no sense and, po mom mišljenju, diminishes the prestige and meaning of the title. I have respect for Dorticos and Kalenga but I think the legitimacy of any world title resulting from a fight between the No. 2 No i. 3 ranked contenders, when the No 1 mandatory contender who already holds the WBA Interim champion is ready and available, to say the least, is highly questionable.
The WBA told me and announced to the media that it was working to have only one world champion in each division. While I’ve been sitting out the last four months waiting to fight, the WBA has decided to allow six different guys to fight for tri WBA cruiserweight world titles, practically on the same day, instead of crowning only one WBA cruiserweight world champion. I look forward to returning to the ring and my manager, Al Haymon, has advised me that I will fight in May and we will announce next week. I want to thank everyone for their support and I apologize to my family, prijatelji, fans and my country, Kazahstan, for this chaos the WBA has caused that has damaged and delayed my professional boxing career. I will move forward and continue to fight inside the ring, letting my attorneys and manager fight this unfair situation outside the ring.

Dodatno, u svakom trenutku, Ja nemam problema bore WBA Ne. 2-rangirana Yunier Dorticos.
