Team Shumenov responds to Lebedev vs. Gassiev world title fight announcement

LAS VEGAS (Agosto 17,, 2016) – Team Shumenov believes it is worth reviewing recent history enlight of the recent announcement that WBA Super/IBF cruiserweight world champion Denis Lebedev will defend against Murat Gassiev in late November or early December in Russia: A condition for allowing Lebedev to fight IBF cruiserweight champion Victor Emilio Ramirez en mayo 21, 2016 was that Lebedev had to fight WBA cruiserweight world champion Shumenov Beibu dentro 120 día. (Lebedev hasn’t made a mandatory defense since April 10, 2015.) Shumenov has done everything to make that fight, while Lebedev has done nothing but run from his mandatory title fight. When it first became obvious in June that Lebedev was trying to avoid his mandated WBA title fight, Shumenov repeatedly requested that the WBA order a purse bid.
Lebedev ignored the WBA and then recently sought, after the WBA deadline had passed, a special permit allowing him to fight Gassiev, which Shumenov officially objected to dentro 48 horas. Campeón mundial interino de peso crucero de la AMB Yunier Dorticos has also objected. At this present time, aunque, Team Shumenov is still waiting to hear the WBA’s ruling in terms of stripping Lebedev if he decides to fight Gassiev instead of Shumenov.
It really is very simple. Shumenov wants to fight Lebedev, who is doing everything he can to avoid it. If Lebedev doesn’t care to meet his obligations and conditions of his prior special permit, he should relinquish his title. Lebedev and his people need to rejoin the rest of us in the real world and stop claiming that Shumenov has not been pushing for this fight.
According to a recent report, Lebedev’s camp members erroneously reported that, “Shumenov is not exactly pushing the issue” (to fight Lebedev next).

Team Shumenov petitions WBA to declare purse bid for mandatory title fight vs. Lebedev or strip Lebedev of his world cruiserweight title belt

LAS VEGAS (Julio 22, 2016) – It has been more than a month since World Boxing Association (AMB) world cruiserweight champion Shumenov Beibu (16-2, 10 KOs), based on the much publicized WBA Cruiserweight Tournament rules and regulations, petitioned the WBA to either declare a purse bid for a title fight between WBA Super cruiserweight champion Denis Lebedev, or strip Lebedev of his title belt for being non-compliant.
En julio pasado, Shumenov derrotado B.J. Flores by way of a 12-round unanimous decision to become the WBA mandatory challenger for Lebedev, who hasn’t fought a mandatory defense since April 10, 2015.
The WBA issued a resolution this past April that Lebedev, quien derrotó Victor Emelio Ramirez in May to also become International Boxing Federation cruiserweight champion, must fight Shumenov dentro 120 día of the latter’s May 21, 2016 knockout victory over Júnior Wright.
On record for making changes to insure only one world champion in each division, incredibly, the WBA presently has 38 different world title belt holders in only 17 diferentes clases de peso. Only three WBA divisions have one world champion – super ligero, lightweight and light flyweightand eight have three world titlists, including its cruiserweight division, which presently has world champions in Lebedev, Shumenov and Interim champion Yunier Dorticos, who is the WBA second mandatory challenger.
In an apparent public relations move, the WBA has suddenly declared this month a rash of mandatory defenses, sin embargo, declaring and actually making these title fights are two different things, as Shumenov has unfortunately learned. The WBA should have ordered a Lebedev vs. Shumenov purse bid on June 21, 2016, when the two sides couldn’t come to an agreement, but the WBA failed to do so. When Shumenov repeated his request for a purse bid in June, the WBA failed once again to act.
WBA Rule D: Purse Bids
1. Call For Purse Bid. Bout participants shall reach an agreement on holding the bout no later than ninety (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, Andrei Ryabinsky, 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 dijo.
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.

Shumenov stops Wright in 10th round of WBA cruiserweight world title fight

The native of Kazakhstan, luchando fuera de Las Vegas, also earned the right to challenge unified WBA Super/ International Boxing Federation (FIB) campeón mundial de peso crucero Denis Lebedev (29-2, 22 KOs) dentro 120 día, as mandated by the WBA.

LAS VEGAS (Mayo 21, 2016) – On a night Erislandy “El Sueño Americano” Lara successfully defended his WBA Super Welterweight Championship with a hard-fought 12-round unanimous decision over Vanes “The Nightmare” Martirosyan, undefeated brothers Jermall y Jermell Charlo, de Houston, became the first twins in boxing history to hold world titles in the same weight class.

 

Jermall Charlo (24-0, 18 KOs) retained his IBF Junior Middleweight World Championship with a unanimous 12-round decision over former world champion Austin “No Doubt” Trout (30-3, 17 KOs) of Las Cruces, N.M., in the second of three world title fights on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING® desde El Chelsea dentro El cosmopolita of Las Vegas.

 

In the opening bout of the three fight telecast, Jermell Charlo (28-0, 13 KOs) earned the vacant WBC Super Welterweight World Championship by rallying from five points down to register an eighth-round knockout over John “Da Rock” Jackson (20-3, 15 KOs), de St. Thomas, Islas vírgenes (Video highlights: http://s.sho.com/1VeFFVq).

 

Lara outpointed Martirosyan in the main event by the scores of 116-111 dos veces y 115-112. No hubo caídas. Martirosyan had a point deducted for a low blow in the 11º in a rematch of a May 2012 fight that ended in a technical draw.

 

Born one minute apart, the identical twins celebrated their 26º birthday this past Thursday, Mayo 19. Jermall is one minute older than Jermell.

 

Jermall Charlo stuck to his game plan and fought behind his jab, lanzamiento 292 jabs and connecting at an 18 clip de porcentaje. It was a balanced attack from both fighters, but the power and accuracy from the physically bigger Charlo was a difference.

 

“It wasn’t a struggle, it was a great experience,” said Charlo after his second successful title defense. “I want to thank God for allowing me and my twin brother to see this day. Historia.

 

“Austin is a hell of a fighter. He’s a beast. This was my first time going 12, but it didn’t matter because I knew I was in shape.

 

“My game plan was to execute with the jab. I knew he was going to try to stop me, pero eso no sucedió. There’s no way you can tame a lion.

 

“It felt good because I knew my brother would get the job done. We belong on this level. We need these titles to get the big fights and we’re going to keep these titles to keep rising.

 

“I changed my mindwe’re going to stay right here (en 154). Making 154 pounds wasn’t as bad as everyone made it out to be.”

 

“Hat’s off to Jermall Charlo. He fought a hell of a fight,” Austin Trout said. “I felt like I did enough to win. They won’t give me a close decision, so it’s time to start taking these cats out. But I can’t make excuses. I fought my ass off, Charlo fought his ass off and hats off to him.

 

“I’m going to live to fight another day. You’re going to see me back. We’re warriors out here.’’

 

Two minutes into the eighth round, Jermell Charlo, trailing 69-64 en las tarjetas de los tres jueces, landed a perfect counter right hand to Jackson’s left eye. As Jackson dropped his guard to insure his mouthpiece was in place, Jermell connected with two more right hands that sent Jackson falling forward into his corner. Defenseless and seemingly out on his feet, referee Tony Weeks stepped in immediately and stopped it at 0:51.

 

“It’s history,” said Jermell, who entered the match as the WBC No. 1 contender and became the 66º ShoBox: La Nueva Generación fighter to capture a world title.

 

“We did it. A lot of fighters don’t come out of Houston and we did it. I’m waiting for my brother next. We’ve been boxing for all of these years and it had to happen.

 

“I was behind. He was boxing, he was moving around a lot. That was unexpected of him. I thought he was going to come out to brawl. I had to make an adjustment and I did.

 

“When he started slowing down, I was able to catch him with a shot. I knew that if he could have continued he could have come back so I had to hit him.”

 

While both were selective with their punches, throwing just 427 combined shots through eight and a half rounds, Jermell was the more accurate fighter. The new WBC champ landed 23 por ciento de su total de ponches, Incluyendo 34 percent of his power shots against Jackson.

“It was a journey to get here,” said Jackson, del CMB No. 2 contender going in and son of former world champion Julian "The Hawk" Jackson.

 

“I feel like I was ahead and I came up short. He caught me with a punch and I was trying to fix my mouthpiece. Then he hit me and I was out. It hit me in the eye, but my mouthpiece was coming out. I was trying to push in my mouthpiece back in and he hit me. Sabía dónde estaba. It dazed me, but I wasn’t knocked out.

 

“It’s boxing. Fue una gran pelea. I felt I was winning the fight, I got caught and that was it.

 

“I dedicated the fight to my dad and I hope I didn’t let him down. I fell short. You win some and you lose some.”

 

Said the elder Jackson: “I’m proud. It took a lot for us to get this far. I know my people are proud. We are strong people and we are coming back.”

 

SHOWTIME’s Steve Farhood called the Lara vs. Martirosyan rematch “a typical Lara fight.”

 

“As usual Lara’s style is extremely difficult for the judges to score,"Dijo Farhood. “He’s so selective with his punches, yet he lands such a high percentage of them. And to make it even more difficult, a lot of Martirosyan’s body punches were blocked. The judges agreed on seven of the 12 rondas. It clearly was a close fight and what got Lara over the top was the 10-8 score in round 11.

 

“We benefit from the use of replay. Watching the punch that brought the deduction on replay, I believe that it wasn’t a low blow.

 

“Lara did what Lara does. Martirosyan fought about as well as he could. The difference was Lara’s accuracy and ring generalship. I think Martirosyan’s competitiveness made it a good fight.”

 

Lara, 33, was making his fourth title defense. “This is normal,” said Lara who landed 60 percent of the 160-plus power punches. “This is boxing, not baseball. Low blows and headbutts happen. I’m a very intelligent fighter and at no point did I feel this fight was going to be lost.

 

“My mother and kids are still there so it would be a great privilege to go fight in my native Cuba. Everything is possible in this world. I didn’t think I’d be champion of the world and here I am.

 

“I want to tell Team Vanes thank you for giving me the rematch. Estoy listo para enfrentar a cualquiera. I’d like to fight Canelo.

 

“The Charlo brothers are my teammates and having three of us going back as champions is a great thing.”

 

Martirosyan, the aggressor throughout, disputed the decision.

 

“I was chasing him all night,"Él dijo. “I put on the pressure. I thought I did enough to win. That was not a low blow. Replays show the trunks were high.

 

“I never ducked anyone. No one wanted to fight Lara. I stepped up and fought him again. I’ll fight anyone.”

 

Undefeated IBF No. 1 contender and mandatory challenger Julian “J Rock” Williams (22-0-1, 14 KOs), was interviewed between fights by SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING’s BrianCuster. Williams, de Filadelfia, has been calling out the Charlo Twins.

 

“I can’t get the fights I deserve,"Williams dijo. “But I’ve got a good team. I have Al Haymon and he got me the mandatory for the winner of Charlo-Trout. Guys know it’s a rough fight if they step in with me. And they know 99 percent of the time they will lose.

 

“Jermall Charlo is an undefeated champion. Estoy invicto. That’s what boxing is all about – two young, hungry champions going at it in their primes. Así, I am interested in fighting Jermall Charlo.

 

On Charlo saying he’s sick of reading your tweets and he’d like to shut you up…

 

“Bien, he doesn’t have to wait much longer so he doesn’t have any choice now,"Williams dijo. “I’m the mandatory and if he wins, we are going to fight next.”

Esto es lo que los combatientes tenían que decir Jueves:
Erislandy Lara
I plan on going in there and getting into my zone and making the adjustments that will allow me to be victorious.
One difference between this fight and our last fight is that I’m coming into this fight 100 por ciento saludable. I’m not making any excuses but I had a fractured knuckle going into our first fight. I still felt I was winning the fight. This time I’m not going to leave any doubt about who is the best.
I have no pressure on me. I feel calm. Part of that comes with experience but I also know that I’m going to go in there and execute my game plan like I always do.
I’m always stuck in controversial fights because of my fighting style.
I’m excited to be sharing the stage with the Charlo brothers. We have trained together, so being part of this with them is great.
Vanes’s a lot more passive than he was for the first fight. He was telling me I better be ready.
I’m going to do what I have to do. Put my game plan together, put my punches together, I’m going to do everything that I have to do to be victorious en sábado noche.
On how he’s improved from the first fight
The fundamentals are always there. Every fighter gets better with every fight. You get a little bit more experience and that’s the difference.
Vanes Martirosyan
I’ve had a tremendous camp. Tengo un gran equipo. I’ve had incredible sparring partners and I can’t wait for the real thing en sábado.
I’m in the best shape of my life and I’ve never been so ready. I don’t have to tell you what I’m going to do up here, because you’re going to see it en sábado noche. Actions speak louder than words. This is going to be the best Vanes you’ll ever see.
This time around I am definitely going to be more aggressive. I cannot wait for Sábado.
There is a different feeling for me in this fight than ever before. It’s for a world title, this is as big as it gets.
It is the ‘Dreamversus the ‘Nightmare,’ and you’ll definitely see the ‘Nightmareen sábado noche.
On what he saw in Lara’s eyes when they faced off
A fighter looking at another fighter. I see hunger in both eyes.
A lot of the first fight, I was kind of inexperienced but we’ve matured a lot throughout the years. Four years into this game, a lot of experience, a lot of knowledge in the game so there’s a lot I learned from the first fight.
The whole division is here, it’s awesome. They should do this more often and I’m happy that SHOWTIME put together such a great card.
Charlo JERMALL
Every fight on this card could have been the main event. To be on a card like this with all these great fighters is exciting.
Boxing has a lot of really big fights with the Charlos coming in the future. We’re going to take it one step at a time. This is a great fight that we have in front of us.
I’m very proud of my brother, to have accomplished what he has at 26-years-old, coming from where we came from.
“Esta es una gran pelea para mí. This is more to me than winning a world title. I put my all into this. None of Trout’s experience matters. I’m a real lion and I’m going to show it.
Austin Trout is just a name to me. He beat Cotto, así que lo que? I have work to do. I’m focused on getting the job done.
“We (the brothers) both do different things, but we also have the same skills and the same power. No one in the division can match up to us.
We always thought that we would be winners and that we would be competing at the top level. Now it’s time to make history. We want to prove why we’re at the top.
Me and my brother have always wanted to be champions at the same time. There’s never been anything like this. This era, you will get a chance to enjoy us. We’ve worked very hard to get here and we’re going to reign on this level.
“Después de este, I’m coming for the (160-pound fighters). To be a top pound-for-pound fighter you need to dominate different divisions and that is my goal. That doesn’t mean I’m struggling with weight. I feel good right now but I think I will be even stronger at 160.
Mayo 21 there is nothing that is going to stop me from losing my belt.
AUSTIN TROUT
It’s no coincidence that I’m back at the top making a title run. I paid my dues and put in all the hard work necessary.
I have nothing bad to say about Jermall as a person or a fighter. Pero al final del día, the history will be my own. I’m going to use him for my legacy, not the other way around.
I worked hard to get here. I’m sharp and on weight. There is nothing that I feel like he can do to beat me that night.
Charlo took a chance with this fight. There is no mistake in taking a chance. But will the chance end up in his favor? I hardly doubt it. This won’t be easy. I’m never in easy fights. They’re always great fights.
Size won’t be a problem. He still has to make 154 libra.
I want to thank Jermall for taking this fight. He’s doing something that a lot of people won’t do. Pero al final del día, I’m going to be the lion tamer. I’m going to tame that lion.
What flaws do you see?…
I don’t want to tell you about his flaws because he might fix them by Sábado, but we see a couple flaws.
On if it would hurt him to move up to 160
It may, it may not. We’re not looking at any extra edge or wishing to put all our eggs in one basket. What we’re banking on is our skillset and our grip to come out victorious. Whether it hurts him or not, it’s not going to matter. Only thing it’s going to do is make it easier for me.
“He estado allí, I’ve been to the deep waters. I’ve seen many different types of strategies and styles. In a sense, there’s nothing that he brings to the table that I haven’t seen before.
I’ve got a big dog in me that you’re going to see Sábado noche. You’re going to see what should have been the main event. Me and Charlo, it’s going to be a great fight and I hope y’all tune in because I’m taking that belt.
Jermell Charlo
I appreciate everyone involved in putting this fight together. To me this is a card that people need to be pay attention to. I believe that everyone on this card is going to give it their all, because we all motivated each other to be here.
I’m fighting John Jackson, the son of a legend. I don’t believe John Jackson will be able to live up to his dad and if his dad ever had to face me, I would have beat him too.
We’re getting more and more experience. People thought that Gabriel Rosado was too big of a test for me but I dominated that fight. I’m going to pass any test they put in front of me. Over the course of time, you’re eventually going to have to say we the experience.
I’m proud of what my brother has done. His success motivates me. Es un campeón del mundo. These are the kind of things we look forward to.
This is our time. There is no more that we can say. There is a lot that’s coming ahead of us.
“Voy a ir a ganar. I trained hard. It’s time for a world title for me. I have to fulfill my end of the bargain. John Jackson has been in wars, pero yo también. This is our time, me and my brother’s.
Being on the same card as my brother is already a high standard so being on a card with the rest of the undercard guys, I’m honored and ready to show what I have to do. I’m ready to make history. I’m ready to win this belt and enjoy my vacation after.
I’m sticking with 154 ahora mismo. I would love to go to 160 because it’s easier for me but because it’s easier that’s why I wouldn’t go up. Making 154 for him is easy as well, he just sees other options.
John Jackson
I’m extremely blessed to be here. I’m looking to make history. My dad was a champion and I’m going to do the same thing.
Jermell is just selling the fight. We don’t take anything he says personally. We’ll humble him and put him in his place.
This is a dream come true and the Jackson legacy will live on.
“Va a ser una gran noche. This could be the best fight of the card, fácilmente. If you watch my career, every single fight I bring it. You’re going to see action and explosiveness.
On Jermell Charlo’s comments about his father
That’s disrespectful. My dad paid his dues and to talk about my dad like that is kind of disrespectful. It’s not getting to me. Fighters use that to try to get in your head but it’s fine, I’ll let him pay in the ring.
If Jermell’s ego is getting to him
“Sí, he needs to humble himself. That was a little out of line. But we’ll see what he looks like in the ring.
On what flaws he sees in his game
He has a lot of flaws. How he leans forward and waits a lot. But his style is perfect for my style. I always bring it and give 100 percent and we’re looking for a stoppage.
It’s going to be explosive don’t miss it. TIEMPO DE LA FUNCION, it’s going down.

El campeón mundial Beibut Shumenov defenderá el título vs.. Junior Wright este sábado por la noche en Las Vegas

LAS VEGAS (Mayo 18, 2016) – Asociación Mundial de Boxeo (AMB) Provisional campeón mundial crucero Shumenov Beibu (16-2, 10 KOs) hace su primera defensa del título este sábado noche (Mayo 21) contra WBA No. 11-Calificación Júnior “Huracán” Wright (15-1-1, 12 KOs) en The Chelsea dentro de The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.
“Estoy feliz de tener la oportunidad de pelear este sábado noche,” Shumenov dijo, “pero desearía poder pelear más a menudo. Estoy listo desde enero. Cada sesión de entrenamiento gano nuevos conocimientos. Soy un luchador completamente diferente al de mi última pelea.”
La última pelea de Shumenov fue en julio., en el que derrotó B.J. Flores (31-1-1, 20 KOs) por decisión unánime en 12 asaltos en Las Vegas para capturar el título interino vacante de la AMB, convirtiendo al ex campeón de peso semipesado de la AMB Shumenov en el primer boxeador profesional de Kazajstán en ser campeón mundial de dos divisiones.
Al convertirse en el campeón interino de peso crucero de la AMB, Shumenov también se convirtió en el No. 1 retador obligatorio clasificado para el campeón de peso súper crucero de la AMB Denis Lebedev (28-2, 21 KOs), quien tambien pelea este sábado en Rusia contra la Federación Internacional de Boxeo (FIB) campeón Victor Emilio “El Tyson de Abasto” Ramírez (22-2-1, 17 KOs) en un partido de unificación.
La AMB ya ordenó que el Lebedev-Ramírez debe pelear contra Shumenovdentro 120 día. La AMB, sin embargo, no ha podido explicar por qué también declaró una WBA “regular” pelea por el título mundial de peso crucero este viernes noche en Francia entre No. 2 Yunier Dorticos y n. 5 Youri Kalenga (desde actualizado a No. 3), especialmente después de anunciar que funcionaría este año tener solo un campeón mundial en cada categoría de peso.
Shumenov, por supuesto, está arriesgando su puesto obligatorio al luchar contra Wright, el ex cinco veces campeón de los Guantes de Oro de Chicago. “Necesito estar activo,” Shumenov explicó por qué se arriesga tanto. “Cada pelea, Gano experiencia y también me ayuda a desarrollar mis habilidades de lucha.”
El Shumenov de 12 asaltos vs. La pelea por el título de Wright está en la parte no televisada del programa The Cosmopolitan..
