    (1) I can't believe Campillo beat Garay.
    (2) Shumenov gets a title without risk.
    (3) I wish Showtime or someone would pick up this fight. Even though I missed (most) of the Campillo Garay fight since TyC lied about when it would be televised, at least it was possible to see it live.

    It would be nice if FSN picked up the fight.

    Whatever happened to that supposed monthly installment of international fights?

    The clock strikes 12 and Shumenov turned into a pumpkin.

    I saw Shumenov live against Mendoza and believe me this outcome is no surprise
    Front running powerful hitter who doesnt pack much of a plan B

    He's never needed a Plan B. I was going to call you a Monday morning QB, but you did have some legit criticisms that panned out. Well done.

    Personally, I still can't believe he lost to Campillo.
