    I always thought it was insane that he was his own trainer. He was also self-managed and self-promoted.

    Put it in that perspective, and it's impressive he made it as far as he did.

    I hear Shumenov is a really smart guy, so I don't put it past him to have a pretty good handle on the managing/promoting of his own brand. He's a business man outside of all the boxing stuff, and I've read he does pretty well for himself. He actually fights because he likes it... That's kind cool.

    I think that Shumenov's experience with B-Hop puts him in an advantageous position. I don't think he'll fall for a lot of shenanigans from here on out, he's been in there with better fighters than BJ has.

    Shumenov apparently comes from a rich family in the oil business.

    He boxes for fun and fame. Not for wealth... Supposedly based on multiple sources and quotes.

    I read that he stopped boxing and went to business school, or into a family business, became independently wealthy, then came back to boxing. He's on that Street Fighter Dudley path. He's interesting. He had a really strong amateur career.
