Yildirim was still behind a high guard but Alvarez was hooking around his guard with lefts to the body.

  • Q & a with Beibut Shumenov
    Q & A with Beibut Shumenov When Beibut Shumenov left the unpaid ranks for the professional scene he said he was going to quickly fight and win a world title. Being a man of his word he got on the fast track and in just his ninth fight he fought Gabriel Campillo, though that didn’t go well as he lost a close decision they rematched in January of this year and Shumenov took the title a shade over 2 years into his pro career. While many believed he had been lucky to win the rematch with Campillo, Shumenov proved that winning the title had made him a better fighter when he posted the most impressive win of his career to date when he beat unbeaten mandatory Viacheslav Uzelkov. Again not one to sit on his laurels and milk the title he’s in the process of hopefully working out a deal to fight Germany “Thousand Year Talent” Jurgen Braehmer. The 27 year old Kazakhstani now lives in Las Vegas and sports a 10-1(6) record. Here’s what he had to say. Hello Beibut, welcome back to 15rounds.com Anson Wainwright – Since we last spoke have won the WBA Light Heavyweight title beating Gabriel Campillo what can you tell us about how it felt to win the World title? Beibut Shumenov – It was my dream to become a World Champion. One of my goals was to win the WBA title but my ultimate goal is to unify all of the major light heavyweight championships.
