    Beibut Shumenov vs Epifilano Mendoza

    Who the hell is this Shumenov kid? I'm impressed, he already has wins over Donald Wiggins and Montel Griffin and is now he steps up to fight Mendoza, who looked really good against Lacy.

    The crazy thing is he only has 6 fights. This is his 7th. He fights tomorrow

    I believe he is self-managed although I'm not sure.

        learn his name along with Lomanchenko, won gold for Ukraine this year, most do know him

        Gennady Golovkin - middleweight 14-0 (11ko) in the amateurs he beat Korobov, Andy Lee, Andre Dirrell, and Bute (ko) , he's also a Kazakhstani like

        Alekseev - Cruiserweight 6'2 lefty, absolutely complete fighter he'll be undisputed champ within 2 years, i'd bet anything on it.

        Korobov - middleweight World Amateur champion 05 and 07 signed with top rank

        Alot of good fighters from the central asian countries will start showing up the next 5 - 10 years

        lesser know predictions to look out for if they turn pro
        Oleksandr Usyk
        Sergiy Derevyanchenko

          For once, there's a top quality fighter on a card not far from where I live - maybe a three or four hour drive each way - but Wlad's on TV Saturday, so I'll watch that instead.

          Mendoza came close to being the first fighter to KO the solid-chinned Jeff Lacy last summer. He is without a doubt a tougher opponent at the present time than Davis. So it's hard to believe Shumenov is fighting someone like this in his 7th pro fight.

              Most people won't understand this, but to me, a Klitschko fight is a huge event that I can't miss seeing live. Like I've said to a football fan I work with, Wlad's fights are to me, what the superbowl is to him.

              I wouldn't be able to enjoy the fight in Bellevue on Saturday if I felt I was missing Wlad's fight.

              There are some weekends with no good fights - this weekend there are good ones on Versus, HBO and Showtime.

                  No, I don't think so.

                    Who won the fight? I checked boxrec and they haven't updated their records yet.
