    I really liked Shumenov - gutsy and raw, unpolished, but really up for a fight.
    But he has boxed tomato cans since 2010! And not very active tomato cans either!

    So is there anyone out there with some real knowledge about what is going on?
    - promotional issues?
    - injuries?
    - LHW being a rather inactive weight class?

    anyone knows?
    Any response would be appreciated :bbb

    he's mostly hype he is NOT a champion by any stretch of the imagination or will.

    Cleverly wanted to fight him, and B-Hop and Froch... but opted for Coyne instead :!:

    Not sure what to make of Shumenov. The fights with Campillo seem to be the only real indication of his ability. He's doing well for a 12 fight novice, but isn't he already about 30 years old?
