Re: Bostic Update
he's staying busy...that's for sure.
Does the Bell camp appear to be interested at the moment? What is Porky up to? Has he given up?

Re: Bostic Update
Mate Bell's team dont want a tough fight against a 6'5 guy like Bostic. Bostic is long in height and reach and can box with the best of them. He's everything Bell and team DONT want, Bell's tough as nails but Bostic will jab him stupid and outbox him with ease. They are hand picking appropriate opponents and picking up regional titles on the way to getting a world title shot, which he could land given his reasonable record and his rankings given his regional titles. But most importantly hes an easy beat for anyone who can box so the top guys wont mind fighitng him as a option defence
Re: Bostic Update
Shuemenov was destined to win a World Title it seems...
Pity one of the Aussie boys couldn't get a crack at Campillo :(

Re: Bostic Update
Campillo is the weakest of the current light heavy champs. Shuemenov should beat him, anbd given he promotes himself could have a long title reign.
Re: Bostic Update
That was pretty much my point. Campillo is there for the taking. I thought it would come down to who would/could pay him the most to take his title. Looks like Shuemenov was the lucky one.
Re: Bostic Update
I really like Shumenov, he's going to end up being one of those special fighters.
8 fights and a shot at the title, like one of our best.
I hope Bostic fights here soon, you've kind of sold me N2 on Bostic, hope Bell takes it, i think it would be a cracker.
6'5 Holy shite, Lt Heavy?

Re: Bostic Update
Shuemenov is a great example of not padding your record hes moved up nicely and actually taken some tough fights early and has reapt the reward for doing so in a early title shot. hes a very good fighter.
Houndawg i really hope Bostic fights in Oz soon, hes back down here in NZ in august. Its really a case of these guys wanting to pad there fighters records or they aint willing to to take a tough fight. Bostic and I are ready to move in to Oz and fight................its just a matter of whos willing

Re: Bostic Update
Tim Bell is fighting this guy in late september..http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?hu ... &cat=boxer.
This wont last a round, Tim Bell KO1.
Maybe after this fight.
It would be good if there were more boxers like Shumenov.

Re: Bostic Update
This is going to be a shocker. I just checked this guys record. Out of his 17 fights he has only fought 11 different opponents.Hounddawg wrote:Tim Bell is fighting this guy in late september..http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?hu ... &cat=boxer.

Re: Bostic Update
The thing is the guy that Bell is fighting has never beaten a guy who has won a professional fight, all his wins have come from fighters with a 0-1,0-2 record.........they must want to pretty Bells record.
Re: Bostic Update
"stay busy" sounds a like an exageration for this fight. Perhaps there can be a new term for such fights. Perhaps "turn-up" fight, or a "padder" or a "take the money and run" bout.
Re: Bostic Update
Bostic will fight Tapanuu Tagilima 2-5-0 August 20th clearly a stay busy fight.......I'd go as far as saying Tagilima is a better opponent than Bells upcomming Brazilian "opponent"
Re: Bostic Update
I agree, a new term for fighters like Aswin and co is needed, i like "take the money and run".toppity wrote:"stay busy" sounds a like an exageration for this fight. Perhaps there can be a new term for such fights. Perhaps "turn-up" fight, or a "padder" or a "take the money and run" bout.
Re: Bostic Update
I vote for naming it a "turn up"
