Team Shumenov responds to Lebedev vs. Gassiev world title fight announcement
|
LAS VEGAS (Augustus 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 Mei 21, 2016 was that Lebedev had to fight WBA cruiserweight world champion Shumenov Beibu within 120 dae. (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 within 48 uur. WBA Interim cruiserweight world champion yunier Dorticos has also objected. At this present time, al, 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 (Julie 22, 2016) – It has been more than a month since World Boxing Association (WBA) world cruiserweight champion Shumenov Beibu (16-2, 10 Uitklophoue), 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.Verlede Julie, Shumenov defeated B.J. Blomme 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, wat verslaan het Victor Emelio Ramirez in May to also become International Boxing Federation cruiserweight champion, must fight Shumenov within 120 dae of the latter’s May 21, 2016 knockout victory over Junior 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 different weight classes. Only three WBA divisions have one world champion – super liggewig, lightweight and light flyweight – and 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, egter, 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 gesê.
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.

LAS VEGAS (Junie 5, 2016) – World Boxing Association (WBA) cruiserweight wêreldkampioen Shumenov Beibu(17-2, 10 Uitklophoue) stopped No. 11-Rated Junior “Hurricane” Wright (15-2-1, 12 Uitklophoue) in die 10ste ronde van hul Mei 21sttitle fight to remain mandatory challenger for unified WBA Super/International Boxing Federation (IBF) cruiserweight wêreldkampioen Denis Lebedev (29-2, 22 Uitklophoue).

Below find a one-on-one interview with Shumenov:

Evaluate your performance against Junior Wright in your last fight?
BS: “I am 100-percent a completely different fighter than in my previous fight against B.J. Blomme. Maar, at the beginning of this fight, I had a little bit of ring rust. The inactivity is really hard for me. I would like to be busier and fight more often. I already started training and doing light exercises, right after my fight on May 21st. In my next fight, I will be even more different fighter against Lebedev.”
How does it feel to be the only fighter from your country to be 2-division world champion?
BS: “I don’t really think about those things. My main goal is to unify all of the titles and fight all the best fighters.”
You’ve always wanted to unify as a way of determining who the best or real champ is. In 20-11, you almost fought a unification as WBA light heavyweight but then-WBO champion Juergen Braehmer who suddenly went home a few days before the scheduled unification fight. How does it feel to know that you will be fighting Lebedev for WBA super and IBF cruiserweight titles within 120 dae vanaf Mei 21?
BS: “This has always been my goal – to unify – and I’m motivated even more knowing that I am going to fight for those two titles very soon.”
Do you think a deal will be made between your manager, Al Haymon and Lebedev’s promoter, Andrei Ryabinsky, or will it go to purse bid?
BS: “It doesn’t concern me, whether it goes to a purse bid, or where the location is. Egter, I hope the parties can get the best deal worked out for everyone involved.”
If Lebedev doesn’t want to fight you and he relinquishes his WBA super title belt, where do you go from there, fight second-mandatory challenger Yunier Dorticos?
BS: “I have heard rumors that Lebedev doesn’t want to fight me and, if this is true and he relinquishes his WBA Super belt, then I want to fight Dorticos because every organization should only have one champion in each division. I hope this isn’t the case, as I have been waiting to fight Lebedev since I won the WBA interim title (mandatory) back in July of 2015. The WBA has ordered us to fight within 120 dae of May 21st. Ek is gereed, willing and able to fight him and I hope he is ready, ook.”

LAS VEGAS (Augustus. 3, 2015) – Nuutgekroonde World Boxing Association (WBA) Tussentydse cruiserweight kampioen Shumenov Beibu (16-2, 10 Uitklophoue) het onlangs geskiedenis gemaak weer, verslaan B.J. Blomme (31-2-1, 20 Uitklophoue) deur middel van 'n 12-round eenparig besluit Premier Boxing Champions reeks lektor, wat Julie uitgesaai 25ste op NBCSN lewe uit die Palms in Las Vegas. Shumenov, 31, is die verpligte uitdager vir WBA “gereelde” cruiserweight kampioen Denis Lebedev (27-1, 20 Uitklophoue, 1 NC), van Rusland, sowel as die eerste Kazakhstan inheems aan 'n wêreld titel in twee verskillende gewig klasse vang nadat die WBA lig swaargewig kampioen van al 2010-2014. Boxing broeikas Kazakhstan het vyf ander wêreldkampioene geproduseer gedurende die afgelope kwarteeu: 1990 WBC super veergewigtitel Aratoly Alexandrov, 2000 WBC swaargewig Oleg “Big O” Maskaev, 2001-2003 – IBF cruiserweight Vassily “Die Tiger” Jirov, 2010-2012 WBA super middelgewig Dimitri Sartison en die huidige WBA Super / WBC Tussentydse middelgewigtitel Gennadi Golovkin. In sy vuis historiese stryd terug in 2010, Shumenov verslaan verdedig WBA lig swaargewig kampioen Gabriel Campillo viaa 12-ronde besluit om die rekord vir geringste-gevegte vestig, 10, om wêreldkampioen van 'n groot organisasie in die 175-pond-afdeling. “Ek is baie trots om 'n rekord in die boks stel,” 2004 Olimpiese Shumenov gesê. “Ek is geëerd om die eerste vegter van my land wees om wêreldkampioen geword in twee afdelings. Ek wil graag my bestuurder bedank, Al HAYMON, vir my gegee het hierdie geleentheid. Lebedev is die belangrikste teiken en, as ek slaag die toets, Ek wil die beste vegters veg in die afdeling cruiserweight.” Shumenov het deur 'n styl transformasie, onder die leiding van die befaamde Kubaanse hoofafrigter Ismael Salas, wat saam met die atletiek Kazakh gewerk om hom van 'n aggressiewe verander, maal vegter in 'n meer volledige, alles rondom bokser. Shumenov oorbluf Flores, wat Shumenov verwag om hom en ruil stoot om te kom, wat die natuurlike groter sou gegee het, sterker Flores 'n voordeel. Plaas, Shumenov meesterlik doos sy pad na die oorwinning, met behulp van die sywaartse beweging, hoeke en posisionering te Flores frustreer in ondoeltreffend aggressie, wat lei tot 'n verskeidenheid van balans af stoot en mis. Na afloop van die stryd, Shumenov verduidelik die verrassende verandering het deur na die opleiding met Salas sedert Januarie. “Ek is nog steeds in die leerproses. Soos my afrigter sê, daar is geen perke, en ek het nog steeds nie volmaak wat hy onderrig my. Dit kom eintlik neer op 'n baie harde werk, herhalings van spier-geheue. My voetwerk vir hierdie stryd het gekom van my afrigter. Ek was gelukkig seëvierende te wees, maar ek sien nog myself om 'n baie beter, algehele, as 'n volledige bokser.”
Salas lei ook World Boxing Council (WBC) Wêreld liggewigkampioen Jorge Linares (39-3, 26 Uitklophoue), bykomend tot die hantering van die verlede en die huidige wêreld kampioene soos Guillermo Rigondeaux, Yuriokis Gamboa, Danny Green, en Jesse Vargas. “Daar is 'n proses vir almal in terme van bio-meganika,” Salas kommentaar. “Daar is spesialiteite van opleiding wat ek leer wat nie dikwels gebruik word in die boks, spesifieke oefeninge vir die dinamika van beweging. Ek het oorspronklik geleer om afrigter in die Kubaanse stelsel, wat soortgelyk is aan die Sowjet-stelsel in wat Beibut eerste geleer, maar ek het ook al oor die hele wêreld leer verskillende metodes van opleiding. Dit neem nog tyd vir 'n wêreldklas-vegter soos Beibut, wat wêreldkampioen was as 'n professionele, en hulle het baie amateur wedstryde. Jorge Linares was 'n twee-keer wêreldkampioen voordat ons begin om saam te werk. Beibut is om daar. Hy is steeds nie op sy volle potensiaal, nou, slegs met behulp van 40-50 persent van sy gereedskap.” Shumenov is 'n prokureur en suksesvolle sakeman wat vyf tale praat. Hoewel hy 'n twee-keer wêreldkampioen, Hy is nog steeds 'n student van die boks, en Salas is sy hoogs gerespekteerde professor. “Hy is (Salas) nederig, maar 'n genie,” Shumenov dring. “Hy vra en luister na my mening. Ons konsentreer op grondbeginsels en hy verduidelik alles vir my. Ons span het 'n daaglikse roetine in die kamp waar ons ons kennis gedeel na elke oefensessie. Die vier van ons (Shumenov, Salas, Grmjoja en Crisler) het een.”
En die gevolg was 'n Tweede Wêreldoorlog titel.
