How can you blaim the WBA for this fight happening? It could be a rainy day and the WBA wold be blaimed for it.
Gift decision to win the title and now gift defences. Shame really as after his comp in the first 6 or 7 fights people had real high hopes for him (although he is still a rookie I suppose)
Hey don't insult the WBA, i'm currently the Interim WBA NABA Light Heavyweight Bronze Super New York Macy's Champion. Now sure I haven't had a pro fight in my life, but they can see potential and they decided to give me a title first.... Which is worse, the WBA just giving out belts left and right or the WBC stripping guys to give out belts? And really Beibut? Doesn't this guy ever want to get a TV fight? I mean Jesus fight someone else, Kelly Pavlik, Allan Green, Sakio Bika? Anyone one of those guys would be miles ahead of that bum.
It is Shemenovs promoters ****ing fault for this fight to be taking place! Not the WBA champions fault. The WBA is an outstanding highly respectable organization.
If you haven't noticed, Shumenov is a joke. He got that belt via one of the worst robberies of the last 10 years. He then fights bums, because if he steps up his level of competition he will likely get knocked the fvck out.
You are kidding right? As bad as the scoring was for the Campillo vs Shumenov rematch, a respectable organization would have filed a full investigation, and nullified the result of a Shumenov split decision, then at least enforce an immediate rematch so that Shumenov could get his ass whooped again, this time with the right scoring to accompany it.
