    Shumenov did "act it out".

    Just see the replay, and see how Shumenov faked punches to Hopkins' waist.
    Shumenov didn't try to hit Hopkins in the face. Shumenov missed on purpose too.

    When Shumenov was close, he didn't try to hit Hopkins solid and didnt try to hit him in the face.
    Shumenov would just throw weak sloppy jabs at Hopkins' waist through most of the fight.

    and just to let everyone know, I am not a Hopkins hater, and not a Shumenov fan either.

    I'm just seeing this fight from a neutral point of view, and a fair point of view.

    Hopkins should just retire cause he's cheating his way with FIXED FIGHT and PEDs usage, and thats bad for boxing.

    Well, it's not impossible I suppose. Clearly Shumenov was invited into GBP for the sole purpose of getting Hopkins the (shot at) the strap, and the Tamas Kovacs (<#100 per Boxrec) joke fight was merely a way of getting him seen in the US after years of inactivity.

    However the salient points have already been made, namely;

    1) Shumenov is already very wealthy and has no real need of bribe money.

    2) Shumenov really isn't very good, and anyone who had seen him fight was predicting a Hopkins UD anyway.

    Well. Kovalev is far more dangerous than those last three. So, it should be interesting.

    and Hopkins vs. Shumenov isn't the only FIXED FIGHT in recent years.
    There are others, and they are:


    1.) DelaHoya vs. Mayweather Jr. was FIXED ...(Oscar "threw the fight" to promote Floyd)
    2.) DelaHoya vs. Pacquiao was FIXED ...(Oscar "threw the fight" to promote Pac)
    3.) Pacquiao vs. Clottey was FIXED ...(Clottey was bribed $$$)
    4.) Pacquiao vs. Margarito was FIXED ...(Margo "threw the fight" to get his license back)
    5.) Pacquiao vs. Mosley was FIXED .... (Mosley was threaten by Arum that he would turn him in for using EPO/PEDs against Margarito)
    6.) Mayweather Jr. vs. Canelo Alvarez was FIXED ...(Canelo was bribed to "throw fight")
    7.) Antonio Margarito vs. Miguel Cotto 2 (Rematch) was FIXED ...(Margo threw fight to keep license & extra $$$)

    u need to pay closer attention.

    when has hopkins ever really been hit solid? there are very few times u can point to in his career. the guy is not easy to hit. it's the reason for his longevity in the sport.

    I know Hopkins is an elusive boxer but in this late stage of his career his body is a bit "shop worn" and Shumenov faked his punches to Hopkins.

    Shumenov didnt try to hit Hopkins solid and was throwing slapping jabs to Hopkins waist for most of the fight.

    Watch the replay and you'll see its fixed.

    I know, that due to your pride, you wont admit the fixed fight, just like you refused to admit that Margarito vs. Cotto rematch was FIXED too.

    But, the truth of the matter, is that they were FIXED.

    Shumenov had never even had one boxing lesson. Shumenov learned to box by watching Bruce Lee movies. He had no trainer, nothing.................it was a set-up fight for Hopkins.....................Kovalev should put Hopkins into a hospital...................

    Shumenov was the quintessential paper champ. Never beat anyone. Campillo best him twice but got screwed.
