Shumenov vs. Mitchell, Berrio With Visa Issues

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

LAS VEGAS – Former two-time world champion Byron “Slama from Bama” Mitchell has replaced Alejandro “Naco” Berrio as light heavyweight sensation Beibut Shumenov’s opponent, Saturday night in the main event on an all-star card, outdoors at Khadkimukan Stadium in Shumenov’s hometown of Chimkent, Kazakhstan. Berrio had visa issues in Colombia. [details]

[The Hammer]

Although Mitchell is a hard puncher too, at this stage I imagine he'll be an easier opponent than Berrio.

[Sparked_1985]

outside in a stadium, interesting.

He must be a bit of a hero.

[boxasmash]

mitchell can definitely get the ko.

Made in hell must be one of the coolest nicknames ever

Made in hell must be one of the coolest nicknames ever

Yeah that is a cool name.

I was thinking, Karmazin? kind of fights like Carl Froch.

[I Got Bummed]

Mitchell is shot, but it's still a very good matchup for a guy with only 7 fights.

Berrio would've been a better opponent, but maybe they can fight in a few months.

[TheGreatA]

Mitchell has had 2 fights in the past 6 months so he has been somewhat active. I must admit that I did not know he was even fighting anymore.

[boxasmash]

yeah, i looked on boxrec like a few months ago and saw he was back.

i remember pissing myself when pavlik said he was sparring with him and that he "fights a lot like bernard hopkins".

that moment i knew pavlik would lose.

mitchell always had a glass jaw. easy ko win for shmoopy.
