    Any thoughts on Shumenov?

    I missed his fight but I was always intrigued by him, especially with his unique background. Shumenov is a part time attorney I believe

    He ain't bad. Has a chance against most LHW's but I think Bhop takes his belt soon

      Wasn't really impressed. Seemed more muscle bound and slower than I remember - got caught with plenty of counters and telegraphs his punches too much. He needs to fight much more often before fighting Hopkins but he said he's ready for Bernard and obviously Hopkins is there for the cherry pick.

        Dude's an attorney who's a part time boxer.
        He's not great, but LHW is weak, so he's better than most

          I thought Shumenov looked very sharp, albeit against, a limited opponent last night. He's very deliberant in his offense; he does waste a lot movement (sorta like Anthony Dirrell); his punches looked very crisp, accurate and powerful. His timing was spot on
