    Comments Thread For: Shumenov-Flores Set For The Palms Casino Vegas, 7/25

    LAS VEGAS - Former world champion Beibut Shumenov (15-2, 10 KOs) meets cruiserweight contender and NBC boxing analyst B.J. Flores (31-1-1, 20 KOs) on Saturday, July 25 on Premier Boxing Champions on NBCSN live from The Pearl at Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas with televised coverage beginning at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.

    The evening's televised co-feature will showcase a pair of undefeated rising contenders as Jordan Shimmell (19-0, 16 KOs) faces Isiah Thomas (14-0, 6 KOs).

    "I'm excited to get back in the ring July 25th on NBCSN to be a part of this huge fight," said Shumenov. "Flores is a good fighter with experience, so I expect a very good, entertaining fight. I am very happy to be fighting in Las Vegas. I am enjoying working with my head coach, Ismael Salas, and my two assistant coaches, Jeff Grmoja and Rodney Crisler. Every day has been productive and I've been learning something new."

      Both on same day. Kovalev will have more people but it would help if he had a decent opponent

          lol

          And the timing of the two fights likely means that they'll be of TV at the same time too. Add on one event is pricing their tickets at a third of the price (while also likely ending up with a 10-12 bout card to fill the night, compared to the eight fights for Kovalev-Mohammedi), and this could get bad real quick.
