          Wonder which of these guys is richer? BHops got his GBP stake, and his earnings, but Shumenov is part of the 'new money' families from K'Stan... guy's a qualified lawyer and a multi-millionaire in his own right, and stands to inherit a fortune.

          Rare to see two guys who need the money so little still determined to fight.

            Look @ the division he's in. He could fight until 100 years old whilst avoiding the three big names around that division. BHop's being selective much like Floyd is.

              Shumenov ain't rubbish but he ain't good either. Better than Murat, but that ain't saying much...he's slow and predictable, but strong. Hard to say if Shumenov even belongs in the top ten since he hasn't fought anyone of significance for 4 years (and lost then) - but Bhop deserves at least a little credit if he wins.

              Simple fact is tho that real action at 175 is between Stevenson and Kovalev. If Hopkins can beat the winner of that fight, well - he's already an ATG in my book...but he could move himself a coupla notches higher.

                    Quillin's opponent could not make it to the press conference, he is still unknown.
