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

LAS VEGAS (Gener 31, 2017) – The World Boxing Association (AMB) has notified WBA cruiserweight world champion Shumenov Beibu and WBA Interim cruiserweight title-holder Yunier Dorticós, as well as their representatives, that Caribe Promotions has lost its rights to promote the WBA mandated Shumenov vs. Dorticos title fight.
Dorticós’ promotor, 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 dins 90 dia. 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 de de maig de 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 11 de febrera 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, respectivament, 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 Maig 21, quan es va aturar 15-1-1 Júnior Wright al 10º 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 “Súper” campió, Lebedev, dins 90 dia, però, it later allowed unified cruiserweight titlist Lebedev (against Shumenov’s strong objections) to fight his International Boxing Federation (FIB) 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, almenys de moment. 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.

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

LAS VEGAS (Agost 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 al maig 21, 2016 was that Lebedev had to fight WBA cruiserweight world champion Shumenov Beibu dins 120 dia. (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 dins 48 hores. WBA Interim cruiserweight world champion Yunier Dorticós has also objected. At this present time, encara que, 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).

L'equip Shumenov demana a l'AMB que declari l'oferta de la borsa per a la lluita pel títol obligatòria vs. Lebedev o treure a Lebedev del seu cinturó de títol mundial de pes creuer

LAS VEGAS (Juliol 22, 2016) – Ha passat més d'un mes des de l'Associació Mundial de Boxa (AMB) campió mundial de pes creuer Shumenov Beibu (16-2, 10 KOs), basat en les normes i reglaments del Torneig de pes creuer WBA, molt publicitats, va demanar a l'AMB que declarés una oferta per a una lluita pel títol entre el campió de pes súper creuer de l'AMB Denis Lebedev, o desposseir a Lebedev del seu cinturó de títol per no complir.
Al juliol passat, Shumenov derrotat B.J. Flors mitjançant una decisió unànime de 12 rondes de convertir-se en el desafiador obligatori de l'AMB per a Lebedev, que no lluita contra una defensa obligatòria des de l'abril 10, 2015.
L'AMB va emetre una resolució l'abril passat que Lebedev, qui va derrotar Víctor Emelio Ramírez al maig per convertir-se també en campió de pes creuer de la Federació Internacional de Boxa, ha de lluitar contra Shumenov dins 120 dia del maig d'aquest últim 21, 2016 victòria per nocaut Júnior Wright.
En registre per fer canvis per assegurar només un campió del món a cada divisió, increïblement, l'AMB té actualment 38 diferents titulars del cinturó del títol mundial només 17 diferents classes de pes. Només tres divisions de l'AMB tenen un campió del món – super lleuger, pes mosca lleuger i lleuger – i vuit tenen tres campions mundials, inclosa la seva divisió de pes creuer, que actualment té campions del món a Lebedev, Shumenov i campió interí Yunier Dorticós, qui és el segon desafiador obligatori de l'AMB.
En un aparent moviment de relacions públiques, L'AMB ha declarat de sobte aquest mes una erupció de defenses obligatòries, però, declarar i fer aquestes lluites pel títol són dues coses diferents, com Shumenov ha après malauradament. L'AMB hauria d'haver ordenat un Lebedev vs. Oferta de la bossa de Shumenov el juny 21, 2016, quan les dues parts no podien arribar a un acord, però l'AMB no ho va fer. Quan Shumenov va repetir la seva petició d'una oferta de bossa al juny, l'AMB no va tornar a actuar.
Regla D de l'AMB: Ofertes de cartera
1. Convocatòria d'oferta de monedes. Els participants del combat arribaran a un acord sobre la celebració del combat no més tard de noranta (90) dies abans del venciment del termini obligatori. Per confirmar que s'ha arribat a un acord, l'AMB ha de rebre contractes de combat acceptables signats pels boxejadors que certifiquin que han assolit les condicions per al combat. Si no s'ha arribat a un acord, la Comissió de Campionats, amb el vistiplau del president, pot demanar una oferta de Purse. Un boxejador també pot sol·licitar una oferta de bossa en qualsevol moment.
El promotor de Lebedev, Andrei Riabinsky, ha estat citat en històries sobre tenir un acord perquè el seu lluitador defensi primer el seu títol de la FIB. En efecte, l'AMB està permetent a Lebedev mantenir com a ostatge el cinturó del títol súper creuer de l'AMB, aprofitant-lo contra la seva corona IBF. Shumenov, que és un antic campió de pes pesat súper lleuger de l'AMB, ara ha portat amb orgull el cinturó WBA al voltant de la cintura durant un total de gairebé cinc anys.
“Tenia ganes de lluitar contra Lebedev i no entenc la seva falta de voluntat i la seva negativa a entrar al ring amb mi,” Shumenov dir.
L'equip Shumenov està extremadament decebut pel fet que l'AMB no va actuar per fer la lluita amb Lebedev que va ordenar., a més de desanimar-se pel fracàs de l'AMB, després de diverses peticions, per fixar una data de licitació o treure a Lebedev del seu cinturó de títol mundial. El fet de no saber si o quan l'AMB finalment governarà ha deixat Shumenov incapaç de reservar cap baralla.. El fracàs de l'AMB per fer complir la seva pròpia regla d'oferta de monedes, o tirar Lebedev, ha impedit injustament que Shumenov es guanyés la vida mentre estava al cim de la seva carrera de boxa professional.
Shumenov és l'únic kazakh natiu que ha estat campió del món de dues divisions. Ara és resident a Las Vegas, també va representar el seu Kazakhstan natal al 2004 Jocs Olímpics a Grècia.

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

LAS VEGAS (Maig 18, 2016) – Associació Mundial de Boxa (AMB) Provisional campió mundial creuer Shumenov Beibu (16-2, 10 KOs) makes his first title defense aquest dissabte nit (Maig 21) against WBA No. 11-Qualificació Júnior “Huracà” 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 aquest dissabte nit,” Shumenov dir, “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. Flors (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 aquest dissabte in Russia against International Boxing Federation (FIB) campió Victor Emilio “El Tyson de Proveïment” Ramírez (22-2-1, 17 KOs) in a unification match.
The WBA has already mandated that the Lebedev-Ramirez must fight Shumenovdins 120 dia. The WBA, però, has failed to explain why it also declared a WBA “regular” cruiserweight world title fight aquest divendres night in France between No. 2 Yunier Dorticós i n. 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, per descomptat, 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. “Cada baralla, 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 Interim cruiserweight world champion & Mandatory challenger Beibut Shumenov protests Dorticos-Kalenga WBA “regular” world cruiserweight title fight

LAS VEGAS (Abril 29, 2016) – Associació Mundial de Boxa (AMB) 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 “regular” cruiserweight world championship fight, Maig 20 a París, between two lower-ranked WBA fighters, No. 2 Yunier Dorticós i n. 5 Youri Kalenga (recently upgraded to No. 3).
Al juliol passat, Shumenov derrotat B.J. Flors by way of a 12-round unanimous decision to become the mandatory challenger for WBA “regular” campió creuer Denis Lebedev, who was later elevated to “Súper” campió.
Lebedev hasn’t fought a mandatory defense en un any, irònicament, 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 Maig 21 in Moscow against International Boxing Federation (FIB) posseïdor del títol Víctor Emelio Ramírez.
I’m very disappointed the WBA is sanctioning Dorticos-Kalenga for its ‘regular’ títol de pes creuer, when I am the No. 1 ranked and current WBA Interim champion,” Shumenov dir. “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, el No. 2 i n. 3 nois, fight for the WBA ‘regular’ títol. 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, fins ara, 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, encara, ignoring my appeal to stop the regular title status of Dorticos-Kalenga and still sanction a fight between them, its No. 2 i n. 3 rated fighters, for the WBA ‘regular’ títol. 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, En la meva opinió, 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 i n. 3 ranked contenders, when the No 1 mandatory contender who already holds the WBA Interim champion is ready and available, per dir el menys, 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 3 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, amics, fans and my country, Kazakhstan, 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.

Beibut Shumenov focalització Lebedev-Ramírez creuer Unificació guanyador baralla pel títol

LAS VEGAS (Març 22, 2016) – Associació Mundial de Boxa (AMB) Provisional campió mundial creuer Shumenov Beibu (16-2, 10 KOs) està apuntant a la 21 de de maig de guanyador del títol d'unificació entre el campió de l'AMB Denis Lebedev(28-2, 21 KOs) i la Federació Internacional de Boxa (FIB) campió Victor Emilio “El Tyson de Proveïment” Ramírez (22-2-1, 17 KOs).
Quan Shumenov derrotat B.J. Flors(31-1-1, 20 KOs) al juliol passat a Las Vegas, l'ex campió de pes semipesado de l'AMB es va convertir en campió de l'AMB interí, així com el seu n. 1 contendent obligatori.
Lebedev, però, No s'ha lliurat una baralla obligatòria des del passat Abril 10 en què va guanyar per decisió en 12 assalts sobre el llavors campió interí AMB Youri Kalenga. Lebedev made a voluntary tittle offense last November, parada Lateef Kayode en el vuitè assalt.
Shumenov estarà de tornada al ring el proper mes (Abril), tots els detalls que ve, i després es posarà a prova el guanyador Lebedev-Ramírez dins 90/120 dies del seu resultat.
“Estic desitjant tenir l'oportunitat de barallar amb el guanyador Lebedev-Ramírez, ja que sempre ha estat el meu objectiu d'unificar els títols,” Shumenov va explicar. “Lebedev has always been my target. Ramirez is the other fighter I’ve really wanted to fight and my manager tried to make a fight between us, massa.
“He estat al gimnàs des de la darrera baralla, dur entrenament per perfeccionar les meves habilitats. Ara, I am a completely different fighter since I fought last July. My team is extremely happy and confident that I can beat all of the other world cruiserweight champions.
El desembre passat, Shumenov estava programat per defensar la corona de l'AMB interí contra el campió de pes creuer del món dues vegades Krzyesztof “diable” Wlodarczyk (50-3-1, 36 KOs), sinó un problema mèdic greu, relativa a un membre de la família va forçar Shumenov a retirar-se de la lluita abans esmentada.
“L'oportunitat de barallar amb el guanyador de Lebedev / Ramírez en una gran baralla d'unificació acaba d'arribar d'aquest any i jo no tenia aquesta opció quan jo estava d'acord per lluitar inicialment Wlodarczyk al desembre i jo era incapaç de preveure el que succeiria al meu personalment família,” 32-year-old Shumenov said. “No tinc cap problema la lluita contra Wlodarczyk en el futur, but only after I fight the Lebedev-Ramirez unification winner. Addicionalment, a qualsevol hora, No tinc cap problema la lluita contra l'AMB n. 2-classificat Yunier Dorticós.
“Ara, Estic en el meu primer combats i tot i així millorar, entrenament amb el meu entrenador, Ismael Sales. I want to show the world my skills before I get too old. Literally, Estic llest per lluitardemà and I’ve been ready for months. I’ll be back in the ring next month and then I’ll get my shot at the Lebedev-Ramirez winner.
